I only stayed for one night at Ians but it was really nice.
Easy check-in and easy communication. He gave me the time and space to do my assessment (I prefer usually to socialise with my hosts) but we had dinner and breakfast together. He got some interesting stories to tell.
You definitely should try his bread and the Anzac cookies, they are delicious.
Opal and Zoey are lovely dogs (I didn't meet the cats).
Can highly recommend to stay
