Neighbourhood information

The cottage is located in the farming township of Yahl located 10 minutes from Mount Gambier. The cottage is located on a sealed one lane road with other neighbours distanced across several paddocks. We reside in our own house at the back of the property, approximately 100 metres away from the cottage, and screened by shedding, fencing & a long driveway for your utmost privacy.
