The Kitchen
In the kitchen you will see one of the original fireplaces which dates back to 1874, when the house was built. Today we have left the fireplace as a reminder of those early days and instead use a large 900mm gas stove for cooking. The modern kitchen includes a twin draw dishwasher, large fridge and full compliment of cutlery and appliances ensuring you have everything you need. A Krupps Espresso machine with fresh coffee beans delivers the perfect cup of coffee. A full kitchen inventory is available on our Guest Information page.



Laundry
The homestead laundry is fully equipped with a washing machine, dryer, ironing board and iron. If you prefer you can use the antique clothes line outside.

The Long Verandah
The long wide verandah stretches from the bay windows along the southern bedroom wing. Sit and look out into the gardens and the creek.



The Wisteria Porch
At the front of the house is an semi covered porch. During summer the wisteria covers in much of the open area, providing cool shade during the hot midday sun. In winter the leaves of the wisteria have gone, allowing the winter sunlight to warm the area.



Banksia Rose Trellis
The center courtyard offers a retreat from the wind and is a great spot to sit and watch the sunset over the reserve.



Tennis Court & Outdoor SPA
After a game of tennis on the ant bed tennis court relax in the 6 person outdoor heated SPA. Even on the coldest winter nights the outdoor SPA is a great place to sit and look at the stars. There is also an outside shower under the tank stand if you want to try something a little different.
