Quality place to stay

We enjoyed our stay, we could park the car for the weekend and just ride bikes or walk everywhere. The garage was good to store bikes out of the weather. The rooms were a nice size. Really good contact/communication from the owner.

Peace and serenity

What a beautiful spot. Arrived to immaculately clean home, house has everything you need, four great beds, two firm, two softer, but everyone had a good sleep. Bright and airy, lots of windows and airflow. Great outdoor deck, seating and bbq. Short stroll to local shop, cafe, park and pub. Thank you Geraldine, really appreciate your thoughtfulness.

The best in Naseby!

We were so pleasantly surprised with this accomodation. I feel like the photos don’t do it justice. It was lovely and warm, modern and very clean. Love the outdoor spaces as well! The beds were very comfortable and included lovely linen. The kitchen was also well stoked for cooking meals. The host was friendly and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend staying here! We are already trying to plan a date to stay again :)

The best holiday house

This house is perfect. This is the one, I would come back to stay here 100x over. You will love it! Well stocked for cooking and bbqs. Beds are super comfy. Its very clean. All the supplies you will need. Playground, town, tennis (racquets were in the garage) and wee bike park are all just a couple minutes away walk, we were there all the time. Luge is super close. We will be back. Thank you so much
