The location was reasonably close to Sassafras township by car. The lounge area was comfortable and heater very efficient. The carpark at the front was so tiny it was a challenge to keep our car off the road. The trees out front could be trimmed a bit to help with this but nevertheless we were grateful to have a car space close to the bungalow.

The little cottage we stayed in was awesome. In a beautiful spot just outside Sassafras. Had a wonderful spa tub and good wifi. Also really enjoyed the back verandah and small garden. Loved that the place was set up and pre-warmed for our arrival. We felt very welcome.

The location is awesome. We went for a couple of days escape and that's what we got. The spa is great, the ambiance likewise. We saw no staff, and to be honest that was a good thing.

Very cute cottage in a great location, walking distance to the shops. Very clean when we arrived and had all we needed. The TV can be gently turned so you can watch it from the bed and it has a hdmi port so you can plug in a laptop for streaming services.
