"Great location near the start of the trail for three cliffs bay. Cottage was clean and close to shop and cafe. Only thing to be weary of, is that there are multiple rose cottages in the area, so you have to make sure to pick the right one on the map (someone in our group picked the wrong one, haha) It's the one next to the sheperds shop and cafe. Overall, a great stay, I recommend for a group."
