The beds were comfy with fancy linen and the appliances were top range. The highlight was the shower, which was like a waterfall, and the deep claw foot bath. Divine. It was a couple of minutes walk to the main street where we fell in love with Le Sel's chocolate croissants. Highly recommended, and we would stay here again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### marion b., East Melbourne 24 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### hardly want to share such a special spot 😇 from day one i didn’t want to leave, such a wonderful hideaway : fresh eggs from the hens, fabulously deliciously comfortable beds …. marion ##### marion b.
