We stayed in John's cottage last weekend and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Our group consisted of 2 couples and 2 children. The layout of the cottage was perfect for us, as it basically has two wings. One wing has the sitting room, double bedroom, and the bedroom with the single beds, which was ideal for our friends and their children, while my husband and I stayed in the other double bedroom which is situated on the other side of the kitchen. The kitchen is huge and bright, with windows looking out on to the creek behind. The window seat was perfect for the kids and I thoroughly enjoyed preparing food on the huge island. The garden is like something out of a fairytale and having the beach so close by was wonderful. It was a bit to cold for swimming, but we did have a lot of fun walking on the beach and looking in the rock pools. All in all it was a fantastic experience and we would certianly stay again!
