Absolutely perfect. The host is a great man and a really caring person, very responsive and quick to help. The place itself is exactly what we were looking for. Quiet, peaceful, relaxing. It, really allowed me to reconnect with myself and nature after a busy time in the city. Beautiful location. The building is quite elegantly designed. It's simple, but I truly do feel sun-kissed. If you're looking for a place to reconnect with yourself, to relax in nature, and to refresh in the forest, this is a place for you. Just a nice, quiet, beautiful spot with a great host. Thank you very much. Love and Gratitude..

We had such a relaxing time staying in the Myrtle Loft with our four children over 3 nights. The space was so beautiful and easily accessible and it was easy to find everything we needed in the home. Generous amount of cookware and plates etc were provided as well which was very handy. Highly recommend this accommodation! It’s so beautiful and the little touches provided by the host like slippers and gowns for each guest didn’t go unnoticed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sunkissed Forest in the Birch Tree Bower accomodation. It was perfect for our family’s quick weekend getaway. Our hosts were friendly, welcoming and provided plenty of helpful information about the property and surrounding area. We would definitely stay again!

Gorgeous little retreat nestled on the outskirts of Emerald. Everything was clean and ready, all that was left was to enjoy it. Perfect if you're looking for a quiet weekend away.

Wow what a beautiful and peaceful space. We loved our stay at this cute, homely cottage. We have four little children who loved exploring the gardens. Communication was easy and we felt right at home. Thank you so much for hosting us, we would love to visit again!

A lovely cottage hidden away in the forest and only 5 mins drive from Emerald! Perfect location and space to rest and relax after all day exploring the beautiful, local region.

We absolutely adored our stay in the cabin. All amenities as described and the place had a lovely calming feel to it. The bed is extremely soft and comfortable and with the combined heating and fireplace, we were able to stay cosy for our entire stay. If your someone that relies on/uses the internet regularly, you may struggle as the connection is a little slow. This didn't bother us at all as we wanted time to disconnect. Overall I'd absolutely recommend staying here if you're after a peaceful getaway. The cabin is located so that you're hidden away from main roads but also a quick drive into town if you need anything.
