Loved it...
Very well presented, warm and tidy home. Worked very well for our very short stay. Loved the decor, felt every single piece was hand picked and placed with much attention. ❤

Thames Delight
A cute wee house with all the amenities that are needed. The road noise didn't bother us too much. Once heated, the house retained the heat. We enjoyed the closeness to Thames itself, and coming from Auckland it was just the right amount of time for a weekend away.

Handy to Thames
This cottage had a nice layout, suited our family of 3 and had a lovely view of the water. It was quite comfortable. Convenient for our visit to Thames. Traffic noise can be a bit bothersome at night unless one is used to it.
