Guests can conveniently park right in front of the cottage entrance on our property, sparing you the hassle of street parking. Our spacious driveway easily accommodates both guest vehicles and ours without causing any obstructions. To make your arrival hassle-free, we've set up a lockbox containing the cottage key for self-check-in. This way, you can arrive at your own pace and settle in comfortably.

Other things to note Since June 2022, we've been dedicated to offering exceptional accommodation, and our guests' rave reviews serve as a testament to our commitment. Take a look at their heartfelt feedback, which speaks volumes about the quality of our service. We've been honoured to host a diverse range of guests, with a majority being professionals seeking a comfortable stay or individuals visiting their loved ones in the area. Step into the inviting ambiance of our private courtyard, complete with a Weber BBQ and outdoor table and chairs. It's a charming garden setting that's perfect for savouring morning coffees and breakfasts, or indulging in leisurely evening dinners accompanied by a glass of wine. Meet our loveable companion, Freya, a young huntaway who shares this space with us. While she adores affectionate "paws on shoulders" cuddles, rest assured that she won't intrude during your stay. Our diligent efforts ensure she's kept away from your area, thanks to a secure 2-meter-high fence that divides the cottage from our backyard. As a family with four active teenagers attending high school, our driveway might witness the flurry of sports practice commitments in the evenings. However, worry not, as we've thoughtfully extended our driveway to ensure your parking accessibility remains unaffected. The spirit of improvement thrives here, as we're gradually renovating our main home and poperty with the same care that has resulted in the beauty of Freya's Cottage. Over weekends, you might find us engrossed in landscaping or other enhancements, such as our ongoing stone driveway extension. While this endeavour won't impact your stay, we wanted to provide you with a courteous heads-up about the exciting progress on our property. Our dedication to making your stay memorable is unwavering, and we can't wait to welcome you into the warmth of Freya's Cottage.
