The lounge area has old comfy couches and a fireplace for cold winter nights. Wi-Fi is available on request. The cottage opens to a covered verandah with seating and wonderful views of the dam below, the bush, and the mountains. A small plunge pool is situated on one side of the house and there is an outdoor shower nearby. The house has a large fenced-in garden and is pet-friendly.

The 184-hectare farm has 2 gorges with cascades and waterfalls when there have been good rains. It is bordered by the river a short walk below.

Very nice environment. Place is very old, but we had a nice stay. Traffic on the main road can become distracting.
