We stayed only one night here while bikers among us completed the M2S trail and I was very impressed. I would love to go back in summer to see the garden. But in early autumn it was lovely too and we stayed in the winter house with a super wood burner. 5 stars for the character-filled accommodation, wonderful food (including a packed lunch) and to Kelly and Jane. We'll be back.

We absolutely loved our time here! Thank you so much for your warm hospitality and beautiful surroundings. Our highlights were definitely learning how to stone carve, the outdoor bath and the peace and tranquillity.

A fabulous oasis of calm, colour and history in a world of PC madness and beige living. Thank you for the inspiration.

We can honestly say this experience was unlike anything we had done before. It's absolutely magical and we loved it here.

A wonderful surprise to discover this touch of paradise! Just across the river and you feel a million miles away from anywhere! Thank you to our hosts for a most splendid dinner!

Loved the view from our fancy tent. Beautiful to fall asleep to the sound of water flowing. Would do it again in a heart beat!

Two nights here and enjoyed it so much. Beats being in a tiny hotel room staring at the walls any day!! Enjoyed so good food here and even got to see a fallow deer chilling out at the back of the chook paddock. Thanks heaps for having us.
