This is a special place, without a doubt.
As is described - this is not a luxury hotel, but it was exactly what we were looking for - a simple, quiet, maybe a bit rustic, immersed in nature experience, but also reliable and somewhere where we would feel well taken care of.
We ended up booking very last minute - and the communication was prompt and easy.
When we arrived, we were welcomed to a community meal (shared by guests and staff) which was so lovely that we ended up eating every meal with them. The food - home-cooked, often entirely from scratch - mostly vegan and all delicious and the atmosphere around the dinner table was truly nurturing. Sharing a meal and stories with the staff and with Leonard - genuine and fulfilling connections.
The staff continued to be quite supportive - they assisted with laundry, were very responsive with any issues and even helped with a ride into town, as we were without a car.
Also - morning yoga, bonfires, nearby hot pools - great bonus!
