Peaceful getaway

Pros: Peaceful environment with beautiful gardens. Megan is a great hostess and made our stay enjoyable. The fresh bread was amazing.

Cons: No complaints here.

Wheatbelt 8/10

Australia 🇦🇺

Pros: Beautiful place. Enjoyed the walks around the place and very central. Enjoyed the freshly baked bread and jam.

Cons: Road is not suited for a small car. Needs an SUV. Of course all the rain in the area makes it hard to maintain the road. Unit was a bit dated, but still enjoyed the stay as we mostly were out exploring the area.

Fireplace, freshly baked bread and the sound of birds is the perfect weekend getaway destination

Pros: The cottage is located in a quiet forest. The bed linen was clean and 100% cotton. The place is off-grid, so no load shedding

Cons: The bathroom could do with some renovation
