The Hut property was a cozy gem with a stunning view just a couple of metres from the house - perfect spot for aperitifs and breakfast! Helen warmly welcomed us, showing off her adorable Sunflower cottage where we snapped some awesome pics. The welcome treats were top-notch: fresh fruit, veggies, eggs from the chooks, and sweet biscuits for snacks . The bedrooms were comfy, and the bathroom's water pressure was on point - showers were a highlight! Big thanks, Helen, for an epic one-night stay - we'll be back for sure!
