Stylish, comfortable, relaxing weekend getaway

We had our annual girls/mum's weekend away here. It was so quiet, clean, beds were superb, so beautifully styled. It felt like a real retreat. Close enough to walk to town for a coffee, wander through the shops and back for a relaxing drink on the deck. Very well equipped.

Brilliant for cycling the BVRT

We had previously stayed at Ipswich and Blackbutt to ride the BVRT. Neither accomodation was as nice as this house in Esk. We were able to stay in one place for the week and ride almost the entire trail.I recommend the property to any one cycling the BVRT.

Amazing experience in Esk

Still in Esk, what a beautiful property. A stunningly renovated Queenslander full of old world charm with modern conveniences. Just a quick walk into town where you will find a variety of places to eat. Our lovely hosts, Anton and Jane, thank you for making our stay so easy and comfortable. Communication was prompt, and being from interstate we appreciated the local advice. We would highly recommend Still in Esk. It will definitely be our place of choice next time we visit Esk.

Lovely few days

Really enjoyed staying in this tastefully decorated QLDer in Esk! Really quiet street, very comfy beds and so warm! I was worried I was going to get cold when first getting in the bed, but I didn't - I don't know what sort of quilts they are, but they are so immediately warm, though I didn't overheat either. So perfect....the shower had plenty of hot water for all 3 of us, and it was lovely. We had some King Parrots visit us - they let you know when they are there on the front balcony for a visit in the afternoon. It was a short 5 or 10 minute walk to the main street, and it was great to be able to go to the markets on Saturday morning. Hosts were so generous and very responsive to any questions, etc. So glad we chose this house for our few days in Esk.
