Reserve this Premium Holiday Rental for your next escape with family or a getaway with friends in Instagram-worthy surroundings. We invite you to slowly discover the house over your stay as there are many delightful details and books to inspire and engage. The first detail that will captivate you when entering the front door at Bridgewater is the breathtakingly, elegant spaces made up of a thousand small, yet impeccable, touches. From the stunning and unique furniture pieces, the stately artwork, perfectly chosen light fittings, vintage decor pieces, all combined with tiny comforts that evoke the natural sounds, sights, and smells of the bush. Indoors Light Bright but with a sense of refinement, the interiors of this designer Retreat features multiple sitting and dining areas, so you can enjoy the luxury of having everyone together or steal a quiet moment browsing the beautifully curated book collection. The common spaces are found predominately on the Ground Floor, with the heart of the home an open-concept fully equipped kitchen and family room where you can perch at the breakfast bar or share a bottle of wine with the wood fire glowing in the winter months, or perhaps cuddle up as a family in one of the two TV rooms and watch your favourite movie. Its contemporary gourmet kitchen features chef-grade appliances along with an island prep area and butlers pantry that boasts our signature tea and coffee station. The indoor dining space is perfect while the dining room offers a large rustic wooden table, and ample windows to the yard, its positioning also provides the perfect opportunity for the chef of the house to still be part of the fun whilst cooking up a feast in the kitchen. The converted garage space provides the ultimate multipurpose fitness and chill out space. Made up of a lounge nook inclusive of large flat screen TV where you can sit back and relax after a hard day of cycling, a personal fitness space equipped with commercial quality Star Trac Spin Bikes, Everest boxing gear, Physio recommended Yoga equipment as well as bicycle storage racks, and ski gear storage.

Outdoors The extensive garden at River Run is a heady mix of Australian Native scents and colours, stretching over half an acre. Tucked beneath this shady canopy of gum trees you will find an abundance of magical places to enjoy during your time here. As you step out of the back door you are welcomed by the undercover dining setting on the patio that welcomes the perfect setting for BBQ mealtimes. Adjacent you will find the inground swimming pool framed with pool deck, sun loungers and divine landscaping. On the opposite side to the pool you will find a comfortable outdoor lounge area perfect for those Summer nights. Meander further into the backyard along the perfectly lined pathway, you will be faced with the tough decision on which direction you should take. One direction takes you towards the gorgeous firepit, another towards the alfresco dining space where you can enjoy a meal under the stars. The hidden Adirondack chairs invite you to bask in the morning sun or perhaps continue to stroll deeper to the back of the property and find Brights famous Ovens River, take a dip, and feel instantly refreshed. Location Its hard to believe a home can be surrounded by so much beauty and so much opportunity, every direction you look your eye will be caught by the next activity to enjoy or place to relax and soak in the serenity. Brights golf course, our famous Murray to the Mountains Rail Trail, the Ovens River and beautiful surrounding bushland and to think it is only located a 2-3 minute drive or 20-minute walk from the township of Bright.

Each room had its own bathroom so no waiting for showers, and the house was really spacious and comfortable. Also had very well stocked kitchen which was appreciated! The pool was great for post run soaking but would even better if it was heated! I’d love to stay again and will book this next time we do this event. ##### Kym R.
