    Wonderful place to stay, had everything you needed, would highly recommend River Shack to everyone.

    Private, peaceful, close to the river. Absolutely loved the place.

    Nothing to not like.

    Clean and comfortable. Fenced area ideal for having a free run area for dog's. Right by the river and 2 reserves nearby for walking. Quiet and private.

    We had a great stay, dogs loved it and we’ll be happy to come back.

    Great location, 10 min drive from good pubs and cafes. Good places within walking distance to exercise the dogs. Great fenced outside area and next to swimmable river. Well-equipped kitchen and comfy bed.

    It was cold in the morning as it took a while for the sun to edge over the hill tops and reach the house. (but good heat pump kept cottage warm!)

    we loved the location was an incredible place to have our 2 dogs, easy drive back to town, the place was incredibly clean, everything you needed to cook with was available the only suggestion would be great to have a BBQ but other than that ill Definitely be booking this spot again next time we travel down south 😀

    there was nothing I didn't like was a excellent spot 👌
