Beautiful house and location! Loved our house guests (kangaroos).

A little disappointed we weren’t able to use the outdoor fire pit. We were really looking forward to that.

A great hideaway to enjoy the smell of the gum trees with space for everyone to take life slow.

Amenities provided in the kitchen were great, including the bottle of delicious wine on arrival. Along with instructions and specific things for the bbq to make cleaning a breeze. Seperate pizza oven looked easy to use too. Large living room for games or watching the tennis

Beds you could certainly feel were a basic spring mattress. All beds were quite firm. Worth mentioning that the location is on a dirt road for those not from the country. Not sure where the fire pit was, though understandable if removed due to the season.

We had an absolutely wonderful time there, house is spacious and very comfortable for 8 people. We enjoyed outdoor area with BBQ, games and fire pit. There were some kangaroos in the backyard and nature around the house was amazing. Highly recommended.

The water pump was noisy, especially during the night if someone used the toilet, but can manage it.

No breakfast was supplied which was fine as we took our own and also ate in town. Location was a fair way out which was also fine, was nice and quiet. Lovely watching the kangaroos and birds from the windows while sitting in front of the openfire.
