Little's Boot Shop With a Lot of Soul

Located in a small and secluded country town in the heart of the Pyrenees, Little's Boot Shop is nestled amongst wineries and farmland. This easy weekend away was exactly what the doctor ordered.

Switching off from the outside world is easy at Little's. For the ultimate maxo relaxo, we played cards in the evenings with a glass of wine in the moody living room. The styling pays tribute to the quirky rooms and their history. You can enjoy a fire inside and out on cold winter nights, snuggle up on the couch with a tea and a book or sit back and relax in the red leather lounger in the charming living space. What more could you want?!

Our days were filled with exploring the surrounding region. Wineries, hikes and waterfalls. With the Grampians less than an hour away, we took advantage of the morning sun and set off for a day of breathtaking views and weather. Sitting outside at sunset with a glass of wine, the sound of the bee's humming and birds chirping was just a small bit of charm this cottage has to offer.

          A short walk through the tall trees and low lying ferns leads to the stunning Silverband Falls. We were greeted by a curious Kangaroo on the rocks above foraging for food. The water was a little light on in the peak of summer but as I stood there, I imagined what it would be like in winter, the lush greenery and rushing water. It painted a lovely picture....
