9.0

What made this place so fabulous were the hosts Ray and Leonie. Super friendly and helpful. I always want to stay somewhere warm, comfortable and clean. This was all that and more. Thanks Ray for looking after our stuff while we were out hiking and being so friendly and helpful. We'll be back!

Large comfortable house with everything we needed

9.0

We booked last minute and they were very accommodating and welcoming. House was large, warm and comfortable. Separate showers and toilet was helpful. Full sized kitchen with everything we needed. Covered desk space for our muddy boots was a bonus! Cafe almost next door for coffee was amazing.

It was a bit far out of town without a car.

Highly recommend

10.0

We had a whole cottage with three bedrooms so everyone had space. Everything we needed for breakfast was in the kitchen. Ray was really helpful with some tips about the local area. Milk for coffee/tea was in the fridge upon arrival. There was a laundry room so we were able to get some laundry done.
