Linda is a laugh a minute and Andre is a great cook. I especially loved the ‘rubbery’ scrambled eggs. 😉 The sightseeing and dining suggestions and local advice were very much appreciated. First Class 👍🏼

Craig Australia

The breakfasts were very good, served promptly by very welcoming and friendly hosts

Sharon Australia

The owners of the B&B were so warm and lovely, and made us feel right at home. Breakfast was very good, with a number of home made jams. The room was very large and comfortable. The owners were also very helpful in providing recommendations on what to see, what to eat and what to do. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

John Australia

From the moment we arrived we felt so welcome. The house was amazing and decorated so tastefully. Our room was so comfortable and beautifully decorated. The bathroom was so clean with products for all your needs. The B7B was excellently situated to the town with loads of restaurants close by

Ian Australia

We stayed here for 3 enjoyable nights. Kurrajong House B&B was built just for this purpose and the host and hostess could not have been better suited to their roles. Everything from the comfortable, spotless and beautifully decorated facilities to the delicious made to order breakfasts was wonderful. In addition, the hostess had such a good sense of humor we felt she could have been a professional entertainer. We started each morning with a laugh and that is a perfect way to start a vacation day!
