The property was perfect for our large family group. Plenty of space to relax and play. The separate sleeping wings of the house were especially suited to our needs. The pool and outdoor seating area were fabulous. The kitchen and BBQ area were set out well and easy to use. Communication with the host and contact once we arrived was friendly and full of information. We will definitely be going back for another stay.

Wonderful property for a big family gathering. Too cold for the pool but a lovely bbq and fire pit. Very well presented and clean and they had everything you could want from kids games, dvd’s, a fully stocked kitchen with all utensils, pots, plates, glasses and cutlery you could want.Only guests with Telstra got phone reception but it was lovely to escape from being on ones phone all weekend. Highly recommend staying here!

From check in to check out such a seamless process. Don't let the brick veneer fool you as it was well kept, homely and warm. It was a perfect place to share as a group with two separate living areas, a well stocked kitchen, good warm bedding and The place was super clean with all the add-ons including board games, ping pong table, pantry items and firewood. We would definitely come back and would work for a large group and still be very comfortable.Thanks for having us!
