Excellent stay with dogs

Excellent property as described. A perfect relaxing and cosy stay away with our dogs. It was great watching the dogs have fun and explore the run during the day. Would highly recommend for anyone going away with the dogs.

Exceeded expectations

Every aspect of the stay was so comfortable and cosy. The owners have thought of everything, even through to providing things for a picnic for guests. The veiws are terrific, and the place is so quiet. Absolutely loved the stay and will go back again!

Gorgeous views and a lovely bath

Beautiful outlook onto a valley with lots of kangaroos, gorgeous spa bath, and a comfy bed. It’s just a shame we couldn’t relax there longer. My dog enjoyed his first trip away as well 😊

Great Country Views and Animals

Amazing views and wildlife, 1 bedroom king bed, kitchen, lounge, bathroom, great balcony and separate toilet. Only issue was accessing the shower as its inside the spa batg by climbing over tiled edge of the spa

Wonderful country getaway

We loved visiting this home with our dog! It was very cozy and quiet and with plenty of wildlife (plus the owners horses). Angelika had also put in many extra comforts and treats, which was very kind of her. Our dog loved the area and the dog run outside, but if you have a large dog like we do you best supervise any play time incase they can jump the fence. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again. Thank you!

Relaxing spot

We spent 3 nights there whilst we attended the dog shows. It was a very rural area which was quiet and relaxing after a busy day or two. There is a courtyard that Merlot could spend some time and area for a walk on the lead. We saw the ponies and sheep, also many roos on the hillside opposite. Probably more set for a spa type, winery weekend but all in all we enjoyed our time there and money from the rental goes to cover expenses for the resued animals. Good on you guys. best wishes from Carol, Kath and Merlot

Hi! Im Angelika, your host. Living on an acreage property is just wonderful. I'm a photographer and regularly welcome clients to my outdoor studio for photo shoots.

Why they chose this property

You'll love the views and the cosiness of the apartment. It has personality and style plus comfort. We strive to keep everything in good nick and touch up constantly. You and your pooch are very welcome here. The courtyard is enclosed with an attached dog run. Enough space for your pooch to have a good time too! We fully embrace our furry guests here at the view.

What makes this property unique

The views are wonderful! The night sky is unpolluted from city lights and you can count all the stars. Lots of wildlife to look at as well as my gorgeous horses who will be at your doorstep for you to admire. Sheep, wombat, deer, bunnies, kangaroos and wallabies, countless birds including eagles and the fairy blue wren.
Come and see for yourself. Mountain biking and hiking treks nearby, no car needed unless you want to go to a restaurant. Bring your food and cook in he fully equipped kitchen or have a bbq outside.
