Other Things to Note: Mary Lemon was a young midwife from Orange. With her family, she was an active member of the Orange community. Born in 1892 she lived with her parents before moving to Young to work as a midwife just after WWII. Upon her return to Orange, she helped deliver many of Orange’s babies. Mary lived up the road in one of Moulder street’s historic homes. Like Mary, this early Victorian era timber terrace has a rich history. Built around 1865 this historic building, with high ceilings and wood fire is one of Orange’s remaining hardwood terraces. We have named our cottage after Mary as an appreciative nod to the work of Mary and her nursing colleagues who, as a young child, lived through the first pandemic.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
This is not a national park stay, so the survey questions need altering.Mary Lemon house is sweet and comfortable and the location is pleasant for walking and close to the centre of Orange.The house needs a little attention in ways that surprised us. We've pointed out details to the host and hope to hear back from them.

Thank you, Catherine. We appreciate you highlighting areas where improvements are needed.
We came to Orange for the first time to visit family - and we were in awe of this stunning property - of all the little touches and details. It had everything we needed and more. The backyard was perfect for the kids to play in. We loved the undercover deck. We appreciated the AC and loved the washer and dryer and dishwasher. Close to town and within walking distance to many parts of town. We will be back again. Quaint, clean, art filled and great attention to detail.

Very appreciative of your kind words, Danielle. You're welcome back anytime!
Access wasn’t until 4 pm which is most unusual and then we had another 30 mins until the cleaners vacated …but other than that the property was well appointed and in a good location
A great short weekend stay only minutes from the busy town Centre. Ample space for me and my parents complete with a cosy backyard area to enjoy some of the wine we purchased earlier from our nearby tours.
