Paulines home was so warm and comfortable, with everything you could pissibly want. The beds were super comfy and the fire kept us very toasty. To top it off, there was Buster the friendly neighbours cat. He visited everyday and totally owned it.

Quiet Family Getaway
We had a lovely stay with a home away from home feel, cosy fireplace and warm comfy beds. Nice selection of books and board games. Almost too convenient to the Bakehouse and famous pies. Scenic views of mountains. Excellent communication from hosts and easy check in/out.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was warm, sunny, had everything we needed including a fantastic claw foot bath. There were amazing views and it gave us easy access to the whole MacKenzie region. It was just really easy to stay there. Great communication from the hosts. Highly recommend it
