Ok for the price. Chickens were a bit of nuisance at times. One managed to leave a deposit on my car the day I Left. Basin leaks when overflow . TV needs checking gave off a lot of heat.

Excellent Location
Victoria made us so welcome. Beds were comfortable. The space was clean and I loved the style of the furnishings. We had ducks greeting us on our first morning so it was one of our highlights. The sound of birds, wind blowing through the trees was soothing. So I would recommend to anyone to stay here.

There was no reply to the knocking or calling out when we arrived, at the time we were asked to. There were also dogs barking. We left the property and found somewhere else to stay and then received an email from the hostess. Too late. We require a refund.
