Turingal Homestead is truly the luxury holiday destination we are looking for. Every year we bring the entire family together, now nine in total covering three generations. At Turingal there is parking space to spare for all the cars and boat, no more shunting and shoe-horning the vehicles onto your average front lawn. We like to cook and enjoy wine and drinks. Turingal is equipped with a truly generous kitchen. Every tool and pan possibly needed, and cutlery and plates to entertain a small crowd. Boasting two very large fridges and a bar fridge, at last I didn���t need to plug the camping fridge in that I always take for the overflow. The house is of huge proportions, architecturally unique and boasts of quality at every turn. The pool and spa is an oasis to plunge into, and the views are extraordinary. Above all of this Turingal Homestead has fantastic privacy. Positioned on a headland, with no immediate neighbours, and ample personal private spaces just to read or simply appreciate the stunning scenery. Turingal Homestead to us was the holiday destination where we didn���t have to make any compromises, we just arrived and relaxed from the first moment

I loved it!
Turingal homestead is one of the most magical places I have ever stayed at. The home is beautifully designed, wonderfully decorated and spacious. The heavy wood and exposed brick are stunning and the feel is very relaxing. We stayed over New Years for ten nights and had the most amazing time. The house is incredibly well appointed and has a fantastic kitchen with everything a keen cook needs. The pool and spa were also gorgeous. The real star of the show is the natural, uninterrupted setting; with views down to the bay, kangaroos and goannas around the property and the sprawling grounds, we really didn't want to leave. The caretaker is also fantastic and even strung up a clothesline for us upon our request! I highly recommend this property for a relaxing, luxurious and naturally beautiful retreat.
