You can't beat the kangaroos visiting in front of the property in the early evening!

I liked spa, rooms all clean and you had all the nick nacks we needed. Fire pit was great, shampoo smelt great was quiet place Very secluded

The key was in the door and everything as expected. Lovely surroundings very quiet and peaceful

Everything was top quality! The location is perfect for those who just want to get away and enjoy some serenity. The fireplace was great but it was even better to have a firepit outside! We loved having that. While we sat around the pit a wallaby came up and I was able to pet it!! That made my whole trip!

very comfortable, well appointed facilities and spotless

Very clean and comfortable, nicely situated. A deck out the front and back to enjoy the views and the peace and quiet. Air conditioning and heat light in the bathroom essential for the cold weather. The beds were very comfortable. Lots of local wildlife to observe.

Absolutely love the location. This was my 6th visit to the property. I've seen all the various management arrangements.

Beautiful place, incredible views, the house is very comfortable, has everything you need to enjoy your stay. The pool is great with a great recreation space. The host Nikki is friendly and helped us promptly with any queries. I highly recommend Nikki's place.

Quiet and relaxing, beautiful views, birds, wallabies - amazing! Fantastic spa bath, air con and fans in bedrooms so comfortable in warm weather. Lots of kitchen appliances as well - all you need for cooking which is great as places to eat out are in Dungog - 25 min drive

Location was great, rec facilities were a nice bonus. Super easy to check in and out
