Superb little hideaway

One of the best places I have ever stayed in! They have truly thought of everything here. The pool was sensational, the cottage was unusual and beautifully decorated and the whole place gave you a sense of total relaxation. The gardens were luscious, the birdlife was abundant and wallabies visiting the front yard were gorgeous. A fabulous getaway. Wished we could stay longer.
