Haven’t stayed here for quite a few years, but absolutely love it here!
It’s quiet, private and just beautiful to get away from it all.
Breakfast provisions were wonderful and the kitchen is well supplied.
Thank you for having us! Will be coming back.
We stayed at Observatory Cottages for our wedding accommodation and was impressed from arrival.
East close access to shops, clean and secluded and perfect amenities for a relaxing, comfortable stay. Milk, bread and water/juices provided unexpectingly which was a bonus so breakfast and snacks sorted.
Keep up the great effort !!
I was impressed with the friendly point of contact and professionalism exhibited.
Extremely clean cottage with old world charm.
The native bird life was a bonus!
Most enjoyable stay and looking forward to staying again. 😊
We stayed 1 night and the suite was brilliant. Clean and tidy with little unexpected touches like all the stuff for breakfast in the fridge and waiting. The late checkout was great and we'll certainly be back. Thanks for a great night away :)
Lovely relaxing property, well stocked with supplies. Garden needed some weeding. An additional bench in the bathroom would have been handy and perhaps a wide vision mirror at the entrance would also improve safety, not that we had any issues - just feedback.
Loved that it was completely private and quiet. The view from our porch was incredible. We wish we could have stayed longer

The cottage was perfect. Everything was thoroughly thought of- from breakfast ingredients to candles. The cottage itself is very homely and private. The communication between the host was fantastic with prompt replies.Will definitely be coming here again.
Beautiful unit, everything well thought of, including breakfast ingredients, great fireplace, 2-people jacuuzi, comfy bed, candles, nice backyard, parking at the door, easy signage and instructions.
The only content was the few spider corpses we found on the floor (but hey, no live ones).
great cottage (owl) garden needs attention plus path lights should be installed between cottage and driveway . Looking the door from the inside very hard but besides all that we are staying again soon, cheers
