Please note this is an OFF GRID house with a small but very adequate stand alone solar system, this means there is no air conditioning or microwave and heating elements such as hair dryers which are unable or allowed to be used. Also please note neighbours have roosters these can be quite loud at times. Partial screening allows you to enjoy the uninterrupted views and proximity to nature. The rainwater is completely drinkable and is fresh and delicious. There is a laundry tub however, any clothes washing can be done in the laundry facilities, 7 minutes drive away next to the Speewah tavern in the shop. Guest access The whole house and verandahs are yours to use, there is one shower and two toilets, please feel free to leave a light on overnight to help get to the bathroom in the night. There is a railing next to the entrance stairs. Private Parking in the driveway/entry of the house. Other things to note This is a rural area there are several houses in the area with chickens and livestock. Likewise we are all off grid and so in times of lots of rain our neighbour sometimes will run his generator and this may be heard. Wildlife such as wallabies, goannas, birds and butterflies may enter your garden space. And once again- our cottage is a rustic off grid retreat, at times leaves may blow into the house and rarely spiders or other little creatures can find their way in. If this is not the experience you are looking for then Lilah Blue may not be the right accomodation for you.
