In order to protect Paige, if your dog is reactive to other dogs we ask that you find alternative accommodation (this is after poor Paige got a bite from a visiting dog ). We ask that you bring their bed with you and to let us know when booking that you are bringing your 4 legged friend with you. Winter is a great time to visit the ‘Winterless North’. The weather over winter in the north can be gorgeous, with warm t-shirt wearing days and cooler cosy nights. With the heat pump to warm up the bach on those winter nights, we are a perfect place for a winter break. We should really introduce ourselves – we are the Burdy's as our friends have nicknamed us (our surname being Burdekin). We comprise of Richard (a canvas maker who works from his sail loft at home making marine canvas, drop curtains, shade sails etc) and Kate (who does the accounts, marketing & tea making for the canvas company) plus Paige (our 7 year old golden Labrador), Allie our 16 year newly adopted cat and our brood of pet chooks (who rarely lay any eggs but are lots of fun). We live on the property so usually around to help with directions, advice on where to go to eat etc or generally for a chat. We look forward to welcoming you up to our slice of paradise.
