Windmill lodge: Private rainforest with river

The semi-detached Windmill Lodge is a beautifully renovated, pet-friendly limestone cottage with tranquil forest views from every window. A glowing fireplace and reverse-cycle comfort invite relaxation, while the stylish new kitchen blends charm and practicality. The elegant bathroom features heated floors, ambient lighting, and a deep tub overlooking the rainforest. Outside, a fern-lined courtyard awaits. Quiet enjoyment only—no parties, and a 10 PM noise curfew applies.
