We’re a family-run business, if you’re planning a longer stay, ask us about extended stay rates. The space The self-contained cottage has its own private entry through French doors at the front. The driveway is shared with us, and our family home is at the back of the property. While the cottage is attached to the main house, it is fully self-contained with soundproofing between the walls. Guests enjoy their own private space, and any household sounds are minimal. You may occasionally see us coming and going or hear our children at play, but we’re mindful of keeping things quiet for our guests, and past visitors have found it no problem at all, even describing it as blissful hearing children. The cottage is also close to the local oval and the much-loved Salty Dog Restaurant, known for live music on Sunday afternoons, outdoor area, amazing food and great vibes. Depending on the season, you might catch the atmosphere of a sports game or hear music drifting over - a touch of local life that adds to the charm without disturbing your stay. Guest access There’s a key box for easy self check-in. Parking is available either on the street or in the shared driveway directly in front of the cottage. Additional parking is also available near the oval if you prefer. We kindly ask that you avoid parking in front of our neighbours’ houses, as those spaces are reserved for their use.
