Very quiet and relaxing anniversary get away. Breakfast provisions were fantastic and the hosts are lovely. We will be back.

Rita Australia

The quiet location, facilities and generous breakfast supplies. If you want some calmness in your life, this is the place to stay. We would definitely go back.

Kylie Australia

There was a supply of food in the fridge and on the bench which was more than what my wife and I expected. The house itself was very comfortable and clean. There was a cute garden and the kitchen opened onto it. There was park land around for us to stroll and we could come back and use the amenities. Can't speak highly enough about our stay.

John Australia

Breakfast was great. Had so much food we did not expect. They supplied a range of dvds and bedding to ensure we wouldn’t be cold. The fireplace was also a bonus and huge hit

Tara Australia

Everything was perfect, even down to nice little touches. Loved the breakfast hamper. Little chocolates and even candles in the bathroom. Board games as well Quiet peaceful just a great night away to relax.

The place was so cosy and clean. Wendy and Paul were so welcoming. Even had treats for our fur baby. Sadly only stayed one night. Definitely going back.. I think it may very well be my home on the ranges ..
