• Teagen from Australia (10/10)

  Fernview on Falls was cosy, functional, beautifully situated and had all the amenities we could need. Check in was smooth and simple. The home was wonderfully tidy with the expected cobwebs that come with exposed beams in homes. It was lovely to sit on the back deck and watch the birds play in the rain! Such a lovely garden to explore in, as well!
