Our verdict

Set among a pine forest, this cosy rural hideaway offers four comfortable cabins for accommodation and opens for a social dining set menu dinner on Friday, Saturday and Sunday by reservation. Chef-owner Brad King is highly regarded for his masterful beef and lamb dishes using produce from his own organic vege gardens and local farmers. Occasional cooking and gardening courses are offered.
