  • "Our stay at Philosophy House was fantastic. We were a group of 2 couples (1 with a baby) and 2 singles. The configuration of the house was perfect for us. When we arrived the cot for the baby was all ready to go - what a pleasant surpirse after many hours on the road from Sydney! The fridge was sufficiently stocked for a light breakfast and a cuppa (another pleasant surprise) and everything that we needed was at our fingertips. We especially enjoyed the extensive selection of teas on offer! What a brilliant location - the perfect distance to walk to the main street of Wagga, yet far enough away for it to be really peaceful. It was like a home away from home, we will definately recommend to friends, and if we are in Wagga again it will be our first choice for accommodation. Thank you!"

  • "To whom it may concern, Our five night stay at Philosophy House was great, it was a home away from home. The Owners are very kind on arrival we hadn't rented a hire car until the following day, Kay went out of her way and insisted that we let her take us shopping to buy supplies. There are lots of lovely special touches that we didn't expect. I can highly reccomend the Philosophy House and would be happy to correspond to any emails. Yours sincerely Sophia Partland"
