Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The Hill Block cottage was a lovely place to stay. We loved the fact we had the whole house to ourselves, it really felt like a home away from home. We also love to be able to cook while we're on holiday, so having full access to a full kitchen was a big draw card. But the biggest draw card was the fact that the house was dog friendly. We loved love the decor- very farm and mountain coded. The interior design of the house had so much personality, it looked great. It was very quite in the country. I personally loved the animals on the property, so cute! Louisa very helpful, communicative and friendly. We would definitely stay here again.
Negative: The pressure in the shower was very high.
Summary: Charming cottage in the country.

Positive: Location was good as it was only a few minutes' drive from local convenience store and a couple of restaurants etc. It was nice to have the extra outdoor seating area. Having a full kitchen was convenient for our family of four.
Negative: The advertised photos didn't always show the true property. The bathtub was very scratched up and rusted in a couple of spots. It was disconcerting that the firewood was to be collected from a shed that advertised 11,000 volts on the door with exposed wiring directly inside the door. This is a big safety hazard and we could absolutely not allow our children to collect the firewood for the wood heater. The washing machine and dryer are located in an attached shed, accessed outside, with no lighting. Many of the light switches and lamps in the house appeared not to work or did nothing. There are also no clothes hanging facilities at all - no cupboards, no wardrobes, no racks, no hangers. Thankfully the owner did provide a drying rack when requested. The only heating, apart from the main bedroom, is in the main living area so you will need to leave all doors open for the heat to enter the rooms. The road to the property is also dirt, so you will need to check with hire car company if they cover dirt-road driving, as many will not. I was also not able to locate any oven trays for the oven. You need to be an animal lover to stay as it is a private property, with owners living on site, with many animals (horses, pig, chickens, dogs, cat) with some also visiting the house. Unfortunately, the beds weren't our taste, which is a personal issue, but the quilt/duvets were incredibly lumpy.
Summary: Rustic farm-stay
