    The quiet quaint cottage away from the bustle of town but close enough to park off your car and walk about to everything. Well kitted out. Home has everything incl dishwasher and tablets. Beautiful garden and birds with birdfeeders and bird food provided. The backdrop of the Mountain is stunning. Lynette's home baked cookies were delish- such a special touch. And when there was an issue with water supply the one day she even offered for us to shower at her private home a few kilometers away....
