Fantastic cosy little nook in quiet location
Donna was a great host. Very accommodating whenever we needed provisions. We were really impressed that she opened the restaurant just for us, when it was supposed to be closed for the holidays, paying attention to our dietary requirements as well. The food was absolutely delicious and the ambience was lovely. We were also allowed to bring our cat to stay in the cottage, and she LOVED the experience with us. The cellar had an excellent selection of wines which we enjoyed. We stayed 8 nights and could have easily stayed another week! We were able to find many good eateries and wineries for lunches and dinners within a 30 min drive. Highly recommend.

Nice quiet area to just relax. No cooking facilities and no restaurant make getting food a little difficult. Restaurants and takeaways are in towns about 15 minutes away, so be prepared for that. Other than that, a really nice stay.
