Idyllic

We have so enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. It is so comfortable with a gorgeous roaring fire, comfy beds, kitchen with everything you need when preparing meals for the family. The grounds are just stunning especially with the autumn leaves. The bonn fire with view is a special treat too. Can't fault it! Look forward to returning again.

Still Wonderful

If you are looking for peace and quiet this is the place. It is a beautiful home that is really well appointed. A lovely kitchen in which it is a pleasure to cook. Perfect place for laying back, reading and strolling the gardens and watching the creek flow. An access point for the Great North Walk is only 20 minutes walk away. My second visit and it won't be my last.

Peace and Heavenly Tranquility

My family and I spent 6 nights at this amazing property over the New Year holiday period. If you are looking for a break away from the city’s noise pollution and want to unwind and calm your senses this is definitely the place! The property is set on acres of lush green and manicured gardens with a backdrop of elegant tall trees. There is an abundance of wild life and my children had fun collecting the fresh eggs every morning. My teenage son who is usually glued to his electronic gadgetry was happy to just roam around the property and did not seem to care much about his PS5 that he had brought with him. Mary and Allan were wonderful hosts. The communication was excellent and Mary went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The house was immaculate and clean with a fully equipped kitchen that we made good use of during our stay and a pantry of essential spices and goodies. Everything was well thought out! We would definitely recommend this property.

Perfection

Hard to know where to start, beautiful home set in the most amazing gardens. Welcoming, comfortable, spotless, divine linen, well equipped kitchen, fabulous fire place in a beautiful lounge area, peaceful environs, gorgeous gardens, abundant bird life, fresh eggs, milk, butter in the fridge, chocolates left for us to enjoy…you get my drift! Mary was the most accommodating host, we visited in a time of severe weather events (aka rain) but we were continuously updated regarding road conditions, before our arrival, during our stay and as we were preparing to leave…roads had deteriorated. Despite this we had the most wonderful stay. The home truly is beautiful and I loved the closeness to the city ( about 2 hours from Sydney) but the feeling of being a million miles away. Will definitely be back, hopefully in better weather. Thanks Mary for all your help and suggestions.😊

About the host

Hosted by Mary and Allan

We are dedicated to enjoying this property by ensuring it is hygienically safe, comfortable and unpretentious. We can make it fun by having pasta making courses for 8 people available with a chef or making a limited long table lunch under the tree in Summer. We can supply a chef for your barbq, pick up the seafood and meat in Sydney prior and supply all if you require with enough notice.
We have done both and for a separate cost can make these available to you by request.

Why they chose this property

Set in a tranquil part of a very green valley where the creek runs through moss covered rocks with clear clean water, where birds are protected and encouraged by the garden planting, this property is well cared for, unpretentious and very comfortable. The house has been owned by the same owners for many years and is kept to a fine standard. All aspects are clean, well appointed and comfortable. The garden is managed weekly to ensure there are no surprises. Walking in the area both on the property and on the lane way is a pleasure with fruit trees, plane trees and olive trees all in the area
The owners have a large organic vegetable garden and chickens and are pleased to share both with visitors
The farm is surrounded by other small farms owned by permanent dwellers who live the lifestyle and respect and protect the wildlife. This area is a sanctuary and similar properties are hard to find.
