Fun cosy cottage on the south side of the beautiful Ngunguru River
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, 33 reviews
"Nice and quiet, and away from neighbours so it felt like a great escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Enjoyable, and would gladly stay again. The view and sunny surround was absolutely amazing, as was the stroll down to the jetty. The house does provide all necessary cooking and living amenities to make the stay comfortable. However a coffee table would be really useful as there is no where to put your drink while watching tv. Absolutely fantastic that the property is pet friendly...

Amy, our host and son Finn welcomed us to their piece of paradise with open arms and big smiles. We were then greeted by horses outside our window, an immaculate fully self contained flat with the most comfortable bed ive ever slept in and a swimming oasis at our feet. Everything about our stay was magical, right down the the friendly locals at the store 2mins...
