Was the perfect accommodation for a large group. The house is beautifully done and the heating is perfect. It’s a short walk to town to enjoy Annie Smithers restaurant and multiple other eateries, accompanied by stunning walks close by to walk off the calories!

Great house for relaxing stay
Deceivingly large house with a huge backyard. Great for children. Less than 5 minute walk to shops and cafes. The only negative was the shower being over the bath in the main bathroom. One of the bedrooms has an ensuite with a walk-in shower though so if you have people with difficulty stepping in and out of a bath they could use that shower. Would definitely stay again. Great house for large families or multi generations.

Peppermint Blue House
We had a fantastic stay at Peppermint Blue house. It was a great location only a short walk from the Main Street. The easy process of checking in and out was great and Patrick was a fantastic host who provided all necessary information before arrival. The property was in fantastic condition and was able to accomodate our group.

Charming property, well located with easy walk to town. Few options to eat out mid-week meant we had to use the very small kitchen. Enjoyed the cosy fire with wood provided.
