Denise's place is very homely and would be really well suited to solo travellers. I was travelling on my own at the time and based myself in Derrinallum for a few days. A quiet stay in a small town was a nice slow down for me. Denise has completed a lovely renovation to make the home feel cosy to read a book or do some work. For anyone wanting to spend a little time in the country in a peaceful spot in town then I can recommend. I rode my bike to a lake reserve about 4 km away which was lovely. There's also Mount Elephant - formed by a volcano which is an easy walk or ride away.
