A classic case of 'do not judge a book by its cover'. Outwardly not very pretty but once you get to know it, this place is gorgeous, you need to give it time to reveal its charms. If you want slick and modern, move on, but if you value warmth, charm, originality and a natural and relaxed environment, then this is for you. Koalas in the back paddock and in the bush behind, crimson rosellas feeding on the rosemary near the back deck, superb wrens on the front deck, a view to die for, and do get up for the sunrise but if you choose to sleep in, pack your sleep mask. And light the fire its fabulous. We were disappointed not to be able to use it on our second night - it was a warm night and not required, but we so wanted to light it.
