Where We Stayed

Accommodation

Cortes Kiln

Just a few minutes drive out of the heart of Gapsted was where we called home for a couple of days. Cortes Kiln is situated on a working walnut farm with lots of bush and nature all around complete with parrots calling out to their friends and greeting us in the morning. The design was impeccable. Every door opened to a welcoming room and the outdoors was welcomed indoors with a large sliding door that when open, enabled us to soak in the views from the bathtub. We were totally at peace....
