A wonderful getaway out in the countryside!
Secluded by carefully planted trees, and with an amazing back garden, Nut Point Cottage was a haven away from the bustle of the city.
Was a little farther out than expected, with some dark, foggy roads in the middle of winter. So plan your meals accordingly if you’re not comfortable driving 80kmph down unmarked roads with plenty of stop signs in the middle of the night or evening.
The cottage itself was warm, cozy, and natural-feeling with lots of art on the walls and two couches good enough to sleep in for those with short legs.
Outdoor seating (though wet) was a true gift with all the birdsong and occasional huffing of horses from the paddock next door.
The grounds themselves were a real treat, with the expansive back gardens that was worth a walk through even in the cold winter days.
Only complaint was that the queen bed was a little bit worn from a single sleeper in the middle, so was a bit uncomfortable with both my partner and I in there. Though this has been mentioned to the owner, and of course is a bit difficult to change quickly during the currently slow tourism market.
Definitely recommend for all nature or horse lovers or those just looking for a retreat from the city life for awhile!
