“100 percent recommend”
Solo traveller - absolutely gorgeous, the photos and description were perfect. Comfortable bed, the continental breakfast offerings superb. Clean without being unwelcoming or sterile. Sadly I wasn't there much to enjoy it all.

Beautiful peaceful location. Only 15 mins drive to Fielding which has a great range of restaurants. Lovely outside space to sit and relax. Spotlessly clean and good continental breakfast. Hosts were very welcoming as were the rest of the family. Would highly recommend.

“Perfect”
The accommodation was super clean and tidy. We really liked that the windows were pushed closed for us. Our bed was so super comfy and the shower was amazing. Would definitely recommend to anyone travelling that way.
