We loved the privacy and peaceful setting of Blue Cliffs Retreat. Staying in the Dusk Cottage was a real treat – the kitchen was very well equipped, the outdoor shower was an amazing experience, and the day bed on the front deck was perfect for relaxing. The natural surroundings were beautiful, and seeing wildlife right from the accommodation made our stay even more memorable. Overall, it was a wonderfully tranquil place to unwind.
Some of the furniture was quite dated and in need of an upgrade. The sofa and mattress were no longer supportive and unfortunately caused some back discomfort. The outdoor furniture was also quite worn and would benefit from a refresh. The spa bath had some issues as well – the headrests shown in the listing were missing, and the jets only worked intermittently. The grounds around the property could have been better maintained, with rubbish piled up near the lakeside bin. Despite these issues, we genuinely didn’t want to leave — with a bit of attention to maintenance, this retreat would be even more incredible.

Really enjoy the spa baths & the outdoor shower. The room was very cozy. The bed was comfortable & warm. Beautiful stunning view.
The bathroom was super cold. Maybe if we can have a heater in there will be great. It was the stone floor that it was cold. Other than that it was great.

Everything was clean and catered to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The property was what was shown in the photos.
The WiFi did not work properly during the time I stayed there and the mobile data speeds are also extremely slow at the location.

Quiet, clean and the team kindly left lights and the heater on for us when we arrived. The villa was exactly as pictured and the communication with the owner was fantastic.
Loved it all.

The Duck Villa was very beautiful. The spa and sauna was fantastic for a relaxing weekend away. The property is quiet and picturesque. Having to sit and relax in front of the fireplace was just so wonderful. Highly recommend and we would definitely do it again.

The property was close enough to town but remote enough to make you feel like you’re in a real getaway. All facilities were user friendly, clean and well looked after.
