A really lovely, quiet place where the property is the star. Friendly, welcoming hosts who allowed us total privacy to enjoy a quiet few days after a crazy busy year. Beautifully laid out park-like gardens with picturesque dams full of water lilies nestled among thoughtfully planted exotic species against a stunning backdrop of native flora. Tiny house was adequate for our short stay & we’d absolutely recommend this place to others wanting a quiet getaway.

Gorgeous tiny house
We fell in love with this tiny home! Set in a beautiful quiet open garden with grass and a small dam outside. It was a perfect little place to relax and read a book and had lots of sunshine streaming in. Our first tiny house experience and we loved it!! Highly recommend :)
