Guest Reviews
This house is absolutely beautiful. So much room, the fire place was perfect for the winter weather. You need to stay for at least 2-3 days to fully enjoy the experience. Short walk to all the lovley shops. It was a most enjoyable place to stay and enjoy great friends and a fantastic view. Very relaxing sitting on the back deck with a glass off wine and enjoying all it has to offer. We will be back.

What a magical place to have spent Mother's Day with extended family! The view is gorgeous & the peace and serenity sublime! Such a short walk to the local shops where you could shop to your hearts content. The kids where never board with so much to explore and the Hubbies were kept busy competing on the billard table! What more could a girl want...

A wonderful home with a lovely feel to it... we didn't want for anything - apart from a longer stay! Fabulous location, private and very relaxing. The generous deck makes a great breakfast spot - cooked on the BBQ with lovely views over the garden and to Lake Barron. A well equipped home, and great value - especially for a group of friends to get away. Highly recommended, and would love to re-visit for a longer stay with a group of friends. Would love to come back :)

Beautiful house with lovely views.This house is so well equipped you need never leave. However once you see the fabulous scenery, you have to explore. I recommend at least 3 nights stay as this house has to be enjoyed.
