We believe that in today's hyped up advertising world, word-of-mouth recommendation is probably the only trustworthy means of really knowing what you're going to get,  so we'll let our guests do the talking! Here's just a few of the many comments left in our Visitor books.

We had the most amazing time, James and I absolutely loved it, thank you very much, we will be back many times throughout our lives.  The dinner was beautiful, the room was wonderful, the breakfast, the feel, the view, the massage, and above all the service.  The service was amazing!  Thank you especially for making James' birthday a magical experience and one that will remain with us forever.  Until the next time

Sherry and I would like to thank you for the most wonderful weekend in your beautiful cottage and surroundings.  This whole place is awe-inspiring and we could want for nothing more from holiday destination. You can be sure that we will be back soon and there won't be a friend of mine who won't hear about how beautiful the Secret Valley Escape is and how warm and friendly the hosts are (yeah I'm talking about you guys!)

Phil and Sheri.


Thank you for making our wedding anniversary such a lovely and memorable occasion.  The food, atmosphere, service and company were wonderful and we are so pleased we discovered your Secret Valley. Best wishes and we look forward to staying with you again.

Thank you for giving Garry and I the opportunity to stay in your mud brick cottage.  Very cosy and totally relaxing -- the views, the fire, the spa, the mountains, the stars - beats sitting in the office and playing with a computer! Thank you also for being so generous with your breakfast provisions. As the official spa and bed tester for "Weekends For Two", I certainly see a wide variety of properties and the most outstanding are all the ones where the owners make you feel especially welcome.  Congratulations, you definitely have it down to a fine art. Hope to enjoy your hospitality again very soon

Well the second day came together perfectly.  After a one-hour massage (which was just great) and a trip on the Zig Zag Rail, Phil and I settled back into the hot spa for about four hours! It was fantastic especially to come back inside to a raging fire keeping our little cottage warm. We were even more ecstatic that while sitting in the spa drinking a delicious white wine we had the opportunity to both see a shooting star together.  I know what my wish was so hopefully I'll see you soon to enjoy another one of your magical cottages.  You are a very thoughtful and caring family.  It was lovely to meet you. Thank you

Annette and Phil.
