A delightful spot and excellent hosts.This cottage is set on beautiful grounds, next door to the main house, but completely private. The cottage is beautifully furnished with excellent amenities.The bed is comfortable with good pillows (always important for me).
This cute little cottage had everything. Nestled on the hillside, the studio was privately tucked away down the side of their beautiful property, either a 4min drive to town or a 20min walk. Kaye & Peter were quick to communicate and so friendly. Thank you so much for our perfect stay :)
Absolutely stunning house not a blade of grass out of place , very welcoming and calm atmosphere. Super friendly and helpful instructions made our stay smooth and enjoyable. Couldn't recommend enough
From the moment we arrived until the day we left this little piece of paradise was perfect. Everything was laid on as expected and the studio was immaculate. The decor is stunning and fresh and I loved the high pressure shower in the morning. Kaye and Peter are the perfect owners and take pride in hosting their guests. We loved it here and never wanted to leave but will definitely return for some more sun, walks to the beach and sirloin on the Weber washed down with Angas King Shiraz. Thank you Kaye and Peter for a lovely stay.

Beautiful property. Also loved how close everything was and how peaceful it was.
Fabulous accommodation, tastefully styled and exactly as pictured, short drive to town, hosts were wonderful, excellent communication. We had a relaxing and very comfortable stay. We can’t recommend this highly enough and would definitely stay again.
We stayed for two nights and really enjoyed our visit. The studio was a perfect size for us and the property is clearly well looked after. The owners are lovely and very welcoming as well. If you want to be in a quiet area but still close to the beach, this spot is ideal.
What an amazing place. Host was great and accommodation was superb. Made the weekend away very special. Super clean, very convenient, just an all round amazing stay!
Was an absolute privilege to stay at such a beautifully presented property, would definitely want to return again one day. Very friendly communications from the hosts and everything was exactly as they said it would be, perfect!
This place was lovely . We usually stay at the beach when we go places but staying in the bush area was a nice change . The cottage was very cute .Everything we needed .It felt like a lovely relaxing retreat .The hosts were very friendly .I would love to return one day
