A lovely place to stay if you want to get away from it all. Perfect for walking in the Gwaun valley, and just a few miles from the beautiful coastline.

Lovely stay - very beautiful location and friendly people. Given remoteness of the cottage, would recommend bringing some food supplies (and some more cooking utensils if you're planning to cook a lot) as well as downloading the map of the area as signal isn't great. Overall perfect for a quiet getaway.
