Really lovely property and the hosts have done an excellent job setting it up….lots of beautiful little touches and so comfy and clean. although it’s on quite a busy country road/intersection, it is surprisingly quiet and doesn’t feel like it’s on a busy road at all! Beautiful!!😍

Amazing stay- first guests to stay at this property
Valerie and Bruce were wonderful hosts and as we were their first guests in August, it is our pleasure to give them a very well deserved review. Our accommodation was beautifully appointed with an abundance of food for our 3 day stay. The undercover car space was a bonus. Valerie's art studio was amazing and Bruce made fabulous coffees from his van on the weekends.We thoroughly enjoyed our conversations with our hosts and their knowledge of the area was extensive and very helpful.The property was very close to town and we wouldn't hesitate booking this property again in the future. Thank you for your exceptional hospitality. Cheryl and Colin.

Generous, kind and safe (10/10)
I stayed with Bruce and Valerie for a week while attending a woodworking course (lie-nielsen). I have found out as an adult I am neurodivergent and over the last few years I have had a struggle with my mental health. As an ongoing part of my recovery I have been challenging myself by expanding my social horizons. I did not expect to meet such wonderful people, initially I was a bit overwhelmed at the generosity regarding the breakfast and snacks, it was a generous kindness and consideration for any visitors needs. I was privileged to have some time to talk to both Bruce and Valerie as they are curious and compassionate folks. I felt enriched by taking this time in Valerie's painting studio and gallery of watercolour paintings. I felt seen for who I am and welcomed. The comforts were as you you would expect from the description, a newly built and appointed studio separate from the house and gallery. I am now thinking of reasons to revisit the area with my wife so that we may stay there together and she can meet both of these considerate and empathetic hosts.

Most Memorable Experience
From the start of our trip hosts Bruce and Valerie were nothing but the kindest people. It was a beautiful experience and we felt immensely welcomed during our stay. Our hosts went above and beyond, even giving us a lift to the wedding we were there for and picking us up. We are immensely grateful for our stay and if we are ever in the area again will be coming back to stay again. It is not often you meet such kind-hearted, generous people and we feel truly blessed.

Beautifully presented
Loved our stay. The unit was beautifully presented inside and out with generous breakfast provisions provided. The bed was comfortable and the hosts have provided everything you may need for your stay. I loved the bed pillows provided, one soft and the other firm to cater to all needs. The outdoor area was inviting however because of the cold we enjoyed sitting in front of the sliding doors enjoying the morning sun streaming through. The hosts were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.
