Shane was welcoming and showed me where everything was and when I was leaving super early in the morning he was around to say goodbye. There was everything I needed, plus lovely fresh flowers, and the quirky bathroom was absolutely fine. I had a great sleep in the comfortable bed. I loved the relaxing atmosphere of Quail Cottage. In my limited time there I enjoyed wandering under the fruit trees, a night sky sparkling with stars and tui leading the dawn chorus. I can recommend it as an out-of-the-ordinary place to stay which is relaxing, secluded and comfortable.
