What a beautiful and cosy place! My daughter and I went for a weekend getaway and didn’t want to leave. The only fault if you can call it one was the shower head. The breakfast was delivered to our door and was so fresh and delicious. Very private but spacious. I would go back there again in a heart beat. Thank you spotted chook!

We travelled all of 14kms to spend a quiet weekend away - and that is exactly what we got. We had a great time at the Spotted Chook in the Buttercup Room. The communication was super easy and quick and the place looks exactly like the pictures, romantic, French provincial. It was a great location for our day trips along the range. And lastly, the breakfasts are just wonderful, with fresh produce, local products and free range eggs. Honestly, we did not have to eat until dinner after eating breakfasts. Would absolutely recommend you stay here! It would be cozy in winter with the fire in the rooms and looking out over the range.
