Everything was fine except I found the mattress to be too soft and springy and it gave cramps to my sensitive lower back, but that is just a personal thing as my mattress at home is harder

Secret Squirrel is a lovely property and we love its location near the Campapse River walk. We were lucky enough to be met by our friendly host Kirsten. It is very comfortable, clean and welcoming, but it was, however, a little noisy and difficult to get to sleep at night because of nearby airfield or highway, I’m not sure which? Kyneton is a beautiful town and Secret Squirrel is easy to find.

Great location, and a cosy space for one. However, the picture advertising the property is misleading - it shows the cute house at the front & not the (more utilitarian) space in which one actually stays
