Other Details to Note:
* A complimentary breakfast hamper is provided for you In the Cottage, which includes, freshly baked multigrain bread, croissants, local seasonal fruit, yoghurt, muesli, eggs, milk and juice. We also provide a selection of teas and coffee pods.
* Enough wood for the indoor fire is provided for your stay. The wood cradle will be filled and kindling, firelighters and matches left.
* Wifi, Netflix & Stan are provided free of charge.
* Our property is semi-rural and is not on town water or sewerage. Our water comes from rainwater tanks and we have a waste water treatment plant. The house has its own tank and the water is perfectly safe to drink (but may be discoloured).
* Small pets (less than 10kg) are welcome.
Pets are not allowed on the beds or furniture. The property has a designated "wildlife corridor" for our local wallabies, possums, bush turkeys, etc. and as such is not fenced.
Due to the native bird and wildlife on the property, dogs are not allowed outside on their own and preferably not off lead. We do ask that you not leave your dog at the home alone for long periods of time but understand that sometimes you have to for a couple of hours (e.g. going out to dinner).
* There are free range chickens on the property.
