My wife and I had the absolute privilege of being Izzy & Wades first guests at The Ravens Nest and what an amazing Hobbity experience it was!
From the moment we arrived we were warmly welcomed by Izzy, Wayde and their beautiful boys Marlin and Lorien - and shown around their small holding on the way to our cabin. We were offered the chance to feed the Sheep and Alpacas and collect some eggs from the hens (for our breakfast!) after we had settled in - We totally jumped at the chance and would encourage anyone to get involved! (see if you can spot Elsa the sheep - she's adorable!).
Izzy and Wayde have an amazing story of how they landed up in Springfield and their care for animals and the environment is plain to see - they've put a lot of effort into being environmentally friendly and taking care of the nature around them, which extends to the cabin and is part of the experience that we embraced and learned so much from.
The setting of the Cabin is truly amazing, nestled away in trees with a stream running right by it, flanked by fields and set in front of snow capped mountains.. Its really magical!
A trip first to the toilet and shower cabin is a must - Waydes Woodwork takes centre stage with some really clever creations for the shower, sink and toilet. And izzys creative touch is never far away!
Then to the main event...the cabin. No spoilers here - but you will not be disappointed! It is just truly amazing inside, we kept discovering all of izzys little touches and hand made / sourced trinkets and creations all night and had the best, cosiest nights sleep of our entire trip! The appearance is just brilliant....They've done such a good job and created something quite beautiful.
Izzys "Second Breakfast" in the morning was scrumptious and for us marked the end of our breif stay!
Between my wife and I we've stayed at 100's of AirBnB's allover the place, but never have we left somewhere with such smiles on our faces or had an experience like it. We can't reccomend it enough, it is worth every penny (and more!).... And would just encourage you to book it and embrace the full experience. You will not regret it!
Thanks for having us Izzy, Wayde & Kiddos!
Wishing you all the best with your AirBnB, Lee & Catherine x
