Inside; your accommodation is fully furnished in natural materials, such as pure wool carpet, natural paint finishes, leather furniture and quality linen.

Sustainable living at Elouera started at the design phase, with the careful selection of natural building materials during construction and renovations, to the regular use of natural and safe cleaning products for maintenance and care. At Elouera, we pride ourselves on avoiding the use of harmful synthetic chemicals, using resources wisely and minimising waste.

Beautiful Cottage
Great stay in a beautiful cottage. Very clean and the garden was amazing. Hosts very friendly on arrival but then left us for our stay. No issues but were available if we had concerns. Breakfast provided was lovely and amenities were great. Beds very comfortable. Thank you Don and Sharon for a very relaxing few days. Would definitely stay at Elouera Cottage again

Tranquil Elegance
Understated style in a beautiful peaceful location. Privacy and immaculate surroundings guarantee a lovely experience at this property. The owners have done a wonderful job and, with the additional touches of breakfast provisions, elevate this cottage to one of the best we have ever stayed in. Thank you so much Sharon & Don

Romantic Getaway
We went here to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary and could not have picked a more perfect venue. It is the most perfect place for a relaxing, romantic stay. You can't find fault with anything. You can just sit back and enjoy the peace, privacy and romance of the place. The owners are friendly but just leave you alone to soak up the romance of the place that they have worked so hard to create.
