"We stayed at Magnolia Cottage for 2 nights with our 3 children and enjoyed it very much. Beth is so nice and took care of all the small details we could possibly think of. We enjoyed the fireplace, the breakfast, the view from the house and of course the cute dogs :) Highly recommended and if we travel to the area again we'll definitely be back."

"Tucked down a driveway this accommodation is quirky and interesting. It is one half of the house but quiet even though people right next door. Easy parking. Beds were comfortable and there was everything we needed. Gas fire very cosy in the drawing room. Close enough to town, and the water tower is in walking distance up a track close by. Can I suggest the rangehood gets a good clean (it was sticky by the buttons on top to turn it on) and also the alarm clock was too difficult to set."

The shared bathroom was clean and approx 2metres away from our room and the shared kitchen & lounge within 5-6 metres away. My daughter is in a wheel chair and although its not an accessible place i was able to wheel her up the step to our room and bathroom easily. There was a beautiful walkway over a bridge with a skate park, wonderful childrens park and...
