'Minnikin Lodge' Enchantingly character filled and radiating endearing historic charm, this gorgeous sandstone cottage has a rich history, starting around c.1865-1866. Having changed hands and names several times over the years, in the 1980s it became Minnikin Lodge and was until recently, affectionately known by the locals as the Christmas shop. Having been thoughtfully restored over time, many of the home's original features have been retained, promoting genuine authenticity and irresistible allure.
