What can we say? For us this was such a great spot to stay for a few days. Ian is a very creative person and his place has many interesting unique features. The common area is light and sunny. As accommodation is rural you escape suburbia and instead have sheep, cattle, chooks and some eels to chat to. If you are in luck, Mimi, the getting on in age terrier, may condescend to have her back scratched and chase a ball around with you.

We had a very large bedroom which looked out onto a patio and garden. We just loved the bathroom with its colours and sunken shower- that at one stage may have been a spa. The well-equipped Kitchenette attached to our room meant we could be self-sufficient – and cook some fresh eggs laid by Ian’s hens.

Ian himself is a long term local with a wealth of knowledge and interests

We came in spring and had warm weather. I can imagine on cold days you may need to put on an extra pullover so come prepared.
