Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### tania s. 19 Mar 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely property Had a great weekend, the only issue were oil stains on King bedding sheets, The fridge was not cold on first night, this maybe if fridge had been turned off after last visitors and only turned on just before arrival but was fine on wakening the next morning The only other thing was behind and wallsides of bunks on floor there was a bit of dust build up and little rubbish that would be easly missed and towels could use a little softener as they were a bit stiff and scratchy but overall we loved the place a great for a group getaway. Pool and spa was a big plus and Kitchen equipped with everything you will need. BBQ was great to cook on. The only time we went inside was when we needed do something. ##### tania s.

The photos do not do this property justice. The setting is gorgeous. The house is really practical and set up for a relaxing holiday. Even though it rained we all spent time in the pool and spa which was fabulous. We loved the cows and the wallabies and our 5 year and 3 year old grand kids didn’t want to leave to go to the beach. Seal Rocks was about 30 minutes away and a really beautiful beach so worth the drive. Owners Mandy and Scott were responsive and on hand if you needed them. The house was large enough that the 4 adults could all find places to escape and the home paddock was perfectly safe for the kids to run and play. A great 2 week holiday, highly recommended in a beautiful part of NSW. We’ll definitely be back ##### Verified traveller Stayed 14 nights in Dec 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Krister L. 17 Dec 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A lovely retreat with such biodiversity Was a great and amazing time away. A few small hiccups (like a planned power outage we weren't told about that left us without power and water), but generally lovely and secluded. ##### Krister L.

The views from the back area are absolutely stunning. We spent the weekend with family spending lots of time in the pool/ hot tub - the kids had an absolute ball! It’s quite secluded which is awesome, but a bit of a drive to the closest shop so come prepared. The house itself is quite cozy, but the large outdoor area makes for a spacious stay. Mandy was a fantastic host and communication was always open. We’ll be back! ##### Chelsea C.
