"A fantastic location, walking distance to town, short drive to wineries. Great to have heating in the bedrooms in winter. Decor is a cute cottage feel. The shower has amazing pressure and super hot, but it is a wet room style so take care if there are several of you using it in a short space of time. Had everything we needed and it was lovely to have linens and towels there. Would absolutely love to stay again."
