Little River stay
We had a fantastic stay at Elm Cottage celebrating Dads 80th birthday. The setting location is amazing - river, the hills, the well kept and artistic surrounds. The house was ideal for a large group like ours and plenty of space to relax. Super amenities in the house. We had a fantastic stay.
This is a great property in a fantastic location. It is a good space for a large group and the deck offers a great view of the river. Plenty of cutlery and glasses and an excellent BBQ. Directions to the property were clear. Excellent communication with the host as well.
