My husband and I stayed Friday night - Tuesday morning of the October long weekend. Caught up with our extended family who’ve been living and mining here for a number of years. I wanted to be able to cook and bring our family together - despite the cottage only being suitable to sleep 2 , was able to be reorganised with some loan chairs and paper plates to produce a feast of food for a group of six two nights and an early pizza night for nine our first night. The bed was very firm, so I slept on the sofa which was short but soft & comfortable and there were plenty of extra blankets. The garden is a tranquil little paradise with a variety of bird life visiting, our two elderly small rescue dogs were safe and secure in the fully fenced yard. Will return one day soon to enjoy more of this fascinating town, my only hope would be that the bowling club can improve on their sign-in process & friendliness (took 20 minutes to get two visitors memberships) and when we did we found the food was much less than ordinary and the sweets bar closes at 8pm (lucky we’d been to IGA and stocked the fridge, the kids didn’t miss out we had our own stash). Tip - take some mosquito spray with you they come out at dusk and don’t forget to pick up a local edition of Monopoly 😜👍
