Thank you for your care and hospitality. We had four nights here and it was a very comfortable and peaceful base to explore the surrounds of Canberra. Brekky was great and the fire warmed the place on cool evenings. A beautiful place to stay.

Our visit was a spur of the moment decision to escape from our noisy happy home for a quiet break where we could work uninterrupted in a beautiful cosy setting. We got heaps done and we rekindled a bit of romance too! We will be back soon!
