Two bedrooms, both fully carpeted, both with queen beds and wardrobes. large walk in shower with grab rails in shower room as well as front loader washing machine for own use. large windows and double door opens out onto large covered patio area with seating/table and beautiful views across the almost 2 acres of multiple award winning landscaped gardens nestled on the banks of the River Angas, which flows through the gardens.

My adult son and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Gasworks Garden Suite.Heather and Graham are very friendly and thoughtful. The cottage has everything you need for a very comfortable stay. We stayed for 6 days and would have loved to stay longer. The garden is stunning with vews down to the Angas River, lots of bird life and many delightful spots to sit and enjoy the serenity of the area. Their local knowledge is very helpful. We were supplied with local bread, wine and fresh eggs from the Diva Chooks at the bottom of the garden. Jake the staffie gave us his approval! Thanks Heather, Graham and Jake.
