There are two cottages, each with two bedrooms and a loft. There is a queen-sized bed in one bedroom, a double and a single in the other bedroom and a single bed in the loft.
The cottages are snug because they were built along passive solar principles. Most of the windows face north to let in the winter sun and there are wide eaves to block out the summer sun. Mudbricks give the cottages a high thermal mass to store heat and smooth out the day-night temperature variation. We have also used woolen insulation sourced locally. Timber venetian blinds and wall-length curtains are used to control heat loss and gain. The large posts and beams are made from termite-resistant native cypress and the ceiling from plantation pine.
We produce power from solar panels connected to the grid. We ask that you do not waste power by leaving lights or the television on when you are not at home.
We prefer to cook with gas because it is quick, clean and efficient. The instant gas hot water system turns itself on as soon as you turn on the tap.
We respect your right to smoke but some people who use the cabins have smoke-related allergies. Please go outside to smoke.
We provide linen, pillows and bedding - when you arrive, all you need do is make yourself a cup of real coffee or tea and then off to bed! Each cottage has queen-sized, double and single beds with room for one in the loft.
