We enjoyed our stay. The side light didn't work in my bedroom and at one point none of the lights worked in the other bedroom. We left a note suggesting they check the bulbs. We certainly left the place cleaner than when we arrived.

Perfectly suitable dog friendly cabin
We are always so appreciative of accommodating dog-friendly, fenced accommodation. Tucked away from Hanmer near conical hill the house has a private, sunny deck and lawn. We were impressed by the comfortable bed, the two heat pumps if you wanted a cooler room over night, and the functional kitchen and other facilities. Thanks so much
