"With a very friendly and warm welcome, Mary goes out of her way to look after her guests. Mary is a great cook, providing delicious treats.
This heritage home has been kept in authentic style in a beautiful, peaceful forest setting.
The home has a long history which is recorded in photos and albums kept by Mary for anyone interested. We enjoyed searching back through the photo records and relaxing in the conservatory."

“The homestead is a Victorian masterpiece.”
"Thank you Mary for sharing your beautiful home and idyllic setting. It was truly restful to only hear birdsong and the wind in the trees for a few days. And to enjoy your wonderful cooking! Your hospitality is truly five stars."
