We thoroughly enjoyed our family stay at the cottage. Its position across from the river made for a peaceful setting and an easy stroll into town. The only downsides were that the jets in the bathroom spa weren’t working during our stay, and breakfast provisions were limited to tea, coffee and long-life milk in case you’re expecting bread/eggs/cereal etc. Other than that, the cottage was beautiful.

We had a lovely stay for our sons wedding at Project 3488 which is just a short walk away. It was a very cold weekend but the property has a/c & a wood heater so no problem staying warm. Opposite the yarra river & plenty of walking tracks we will be back again when the weather warms up.
