    No tv, although there was one that was being stored. We didnt have much time to ask about it.

    Comfortable bed and cosy lounge space.

    Nothing to speak of.

    Very nice picturesque place, kookaburras singing in the morning, very quiet with no traffic.

    Not Applicable - I had a fantastic time!

    Fantastic location, only 3 mins drive out of town, close to a beautiful walking trail that I enjoyed multiple times over the trip, lovely folks to stay with and a beautiful property! I would highly recommend it for a solo traveller or couple. The facilities are so clean and well kept, there's a little array of books to cuddle up with, teas and coffees and all the little touches to make it feel like you're truly a guest in a home. Angela and David made me feel incredibly welcome in between my romps around the countryside. Would love to come back again 🌿☀️🌳

    I was struck with how the reality is heaps better than the photos. I suggested an upgrade if it could be done. Like a panorama from back door.

    Very very clean, cosy place, helpful & friendly hosts, just what we wanted, after having lunch in Stirling. We loved "Lola the dog" so cute, supervisor of visitors! Don't forget to shut the gate!

    Beautiful location and environment but several inconveniences in the house.

    As we arrived at dusk, instructions on precise location in these hills and windy roads needed to be very clear. Sign for property and entrance was very poor - far too small if one is driving in a car at dusk. We should have been for-warned re the dip in the driveway. It was only by chance that I found out because I had to ring the owner, if not, we could have seriously damaged the front of our car. Charming as the place was, it was very overcrowded with furnishngs and the kitchen needed a 4 pack extension chord for the main kitchen bench. Appliances sitting on top of the stove , very inconvenient. Instructions to induction cooktop should have been in the main Guest book, because not everyone has one! There was a fan in the bathroom/toilet but no switch! There was a reverse cycle air-con in bedroom but in cold weather this would struggle to heat the living room and bathroom. Scribbled instructions to Wi-fi etc unclear. Breakfast was supplied but offerings were poor. If eggs are going to be supplied, they should come with bacon and tomato. If you are going to supply supermarket croissants, butter should be supplied, not margerine. So we did not make use of the breakfast. No cereal supplied. To make the most of this location, this place should be advertised as a minimum 2 night stay, otherwise the cost is not worth it.

    Beautiful location and setting; outlook to the garden; charming design; quiet; light and airy, very private.

    It felt odd not having a TV but that's our issue.

    It is in a nice quiet natural setting with a great outlook. The hosts, David and Ange, were very pleasant. The little unit was self contained, including a full sized oven, which suited us well and had its own parking area. For us the location was perfect as we had an early start the next day and were able to get away without disturbing anyone. This was a perfect location if anyone is looking to do the "Breakfast with the Birds" tour at Cleland Wildlife Park which we would highly recommend to everyone. Great experience.

    Absolutely fantastic accommodation! The room was spacious and clean, the location is absolutely fantastic! The property comes with its own driveway with secure under cover parking. Dave and Angela were absolutely lovely and extremely welcoming. Sitting outside in the morning listening to all the birds completely surrounded by nature was fantastic! We even had a visit from a koala and her baby! I honestly could not recommend this place any more and we would not hesitate for a second to return. Thanks so much!

    on first entry the space looked great but... 1. no tv. but is in the 'facilities' 2. breakfast in room meant two slices basic bread each and butter, but no eggs or yoghurt or fruit. we did our own. 3. microwave had to be lifted out of bottom cupboard to use (luckily David did this for us but be wary ) . 4. tiny cooking area+ tiny sitting area at kitchen with no dining table. benchtops looked and felt like unfinished plywood - odd. tiny bathroom nowhere to place things. 5. fridge was excellent but freezer had no space as was full of leftovers etc. i see that a freezer is not mentioned in the facilities but be wary. 6. no door handle to bedroom so cant shut door properly. 7 no lock on the connecting door to the hosts so each have access to the others space which was odd 8. awkward tight gate entry - 3 point turn needed to exit. also needed another person to hold the gate out the way 9. outside light u need 2 ask the hosts to switch it on

    air con was good , fridge was excellent comfortable bed garden area nice dog was cute
