Great place to stay close to all the area has to offer. Clean comfortable rooms, fantastic drying room facilities, and great home cooked food. Hosts Rebecca and Andy really go out of their way to make you feel at home and Rebecca’s cake’s and homemade bread are something to really look forward to after a hard day on the mountains. Would definitely stay here again.

Relaxed and comfortable place to stay with great food choices from Rebecca including amazing home grown Worcester berry jam, and first class hiking opportunities with experienced guide Andy. Boat of Garten is a great location especially if you like a heritage steam train rides, hiking, walking and biking. The outdoor opportunities are endless. The rooms are warm and clean, WiFi available. The 'make your own' packed lunch was good, there is a local store selling most things if needs be. Best of all you are away from the bustling outdoors crowd.
