Cosy cottage for a mid winter break
Lovely little villa with all the amenities. Fabulously located near wineries and a short (10 min) stroll into the square. The courtyard is a lovely sun trap which our dog also loved snuffling around in. The wine and breakfast provisions were much appreciated, as was the ability to whip up soup, pasta and a roast when it was too cold and wet to go out for dinner. A big shout out to the local butcher, Scotty's Meats, and the 4 Square for vege.

Great location, pet-friendly stay
Was very happy turning up to the villa, and a massive benefit the accommodation was pet-friendly. We were able to get to the town square and vineyards as far as Luna during our stay, so great location! Also received an email from the owner beforehand which told us everything we needed to know.
