on an adjoining property.

and set in an acre and a half of manicured cottage gardens surrounded
by lavender farm and a small Alpaca stud farm.
Decisions about breakfast can be varied. Choose from a breakfast
supplies pack that can be delivered on the evening of arrival if

corner style double spa bath, walk in shower that takes two,

from either the sofa or the bed, a dream. The queen sized bed
is covered with a feather and down quilt, crisp percale sheets
and anti allergy pillows.
Flowing on from the bedroom area is a sofa & coffee table
and a gas fired pot belly stove for heating.

and glassware required should you decide to bring something
back to eat.

provide filtered water for drinking.
There are menus from what our guests believe are the better
restaurants in Port Fairy.
Outside each garden cottage there is a private garden area,
with direct access through your French doors, allowing you to
sit and have a drink or read a book in the open air.
Play a game of chess on the giant chess set in the garden
There is a basket of lollies supplied to the cottage for your
arrival and port and chocolates provided each night upon retiring. [return to top]
The two Studio Apartments are our most
recent addition and have been designed with a similar look and feel
to our original cottages and the rest of the property.
However, we have added what we believe are the essential that make
a stay in one of these quite memorable.
As you walk through the front door onto the slate floor lower level,
there is a feeling of space as the lofty cathedral ceiling rises above.
On this level there is the lounge area with a large remote control
TV and DVD player, a gas log fire, cosy settee and a tall bookshelf
that houses magazines, books and games.
The kitchenette has a comfortable dining table and chairs, microwave,
fridge, toaster and kettle, with all the necessary crockery, cutlery
& glassware.
Up a couple of stairs is the
bedroom area, separated by a dividing wall that is about a metre and
a half tall, offering a queen size bed with feather & down quilt
and individually controlled electric blanket.
The bedroom overlooks our own Alpaca paddocks through large glass
sliding doors that lead out onto your own private balcony, screened
to ensure privacy.
The bathroom entrance is to one side of the bedroom and is commensurate
with the standard of accommodation being offered.
There is a double corner spa bath and all the necessary inclusions
of bath crystals, body soap, shampoo, hair dryer and dressing gowns. [return to top]
