A beautiful location and great stay overall. The unit was clean and had all amenities needed for our stay. The kids enjoyed the swimming pool and trampoline, as well as some fun by the river. Breakfast was delicious! We enjoyed our stay and felt very welcome by Cheryl throughout the stay.
The only improvement could be the wifi and tv selection. Yes, its in the bush and one can argue to get off devices, but with rugby on or other major sporting events, it would be nice to have the option to watch something.

The property is located in a very pretty gorge. Cheryl, the owner, was extremely kind and helpful. The chalet is self catering and has the absolute basics required for a short stay - 2 gas rings and a microwave and a fridge freezer with a strange array of cooking utensils, most of which were better suited to an oven.
The 1.8 km access road is difficult to negotiate in an SUV and more suitable for a 4x4. I stayed 3 nights Thursday through to Sunday. The first 2 nights were extremely peaceful but on the Saturday the weekend crowd arrived and the site was filled with constant very loud noise from 1400 - when they arrived, until late into the night with nil consideration for others.

The area, is spectacular. Hikes are well cleared and marked. The place is obviously well managed. Background noise is perfect, with the stream's noise sometimes louder than the bird calls.
Just warn that the hot tub needs a bag of wood to get up to temperature.
