The cottage was comfortable and well-heated. (We stayed in the middle of July.) Bedding was warm. Appliances provided all worked. Unfortunately, the place was not as clean as we would have liked and the flies kept coming into the cottage from somewhere, even though we were careful to keep all windows and doors closed. Overall, it was a nice stay.

Overall a very nice stay in a cosy house. We enjoyed watching the chickens from the kitchen window and getting warm from the woodburner. It was only a short 3 min drive to every location we visited in Castlemaine.

A lovely comfortable cabin in a semi secluded garden. Clean , beautifully furnished. Everything that was needed was there.
Unfortunately the weather was a bit to cold for swimming in the 15 meter lap pool but that’s the way it goes.
Great place. Highly recommended

Shirley is a wonderful host and this property was simply perfect for a winter retreat. The bath is generous and a sheer delight in a cold and wet weekend. The fire heater was the crowning glory for a cosy weekend of reading, naps, snacks and relaxing. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again. Thank you so much Shirley!
