Awesome facilities and a comfortable stay. Our kids enjoyed playing with plenty of space in the front paddock and the outdoor BBQ area is great! It's a little bit of a walk down to the lake, so good shoes are worth taking. But what a special spot - we loved it and are super keen to stay again.
It was an amazing stay, the accommodation was all the way in the country definitely the most peaceful location if you want to get away from the city life beautiful home plenty of space and it even has a private lake, with a bonus of horses in the padock nextdoor. Meryl was an amazing host she alway made sure we were okay, and made sure that if we needed anything she was happy to help overall 9.5/10
Really good communication, and great place to stay.

Hi Luke, the reason your review was marked down by us that you did not remove your rubbish from the site nor turn the dishwasher on to wash your dishes. Departure etiquette is clearly listed in the notes. Just to give you that feedback. It will not prevent you staying in the future.
Fabulous location for our multi generational gathering of 11 people. Was a little further out that we expected but still worked well. I knew owners house was on-site but didn't realize how close and was concerned as our 3 under 10 are noisy but Meryl was away so was not a problem Slight hick up with no linen but one phone call, and was resolved quickly.The walk to the lake is a steep one but pretty once there .We were alsoBlessed with clear skies and the stars were incredible. Some great memories made.Thanks

Your children can not be as noisy as a live band at a wedding:) No amount of noise bothers me and my living space is on the opposite side of the house. I am glad you had a lovely time.
Fit the 10 of us easy enough. There are 4 bedrooms. Super stunning views and the outside area was huge. Even got to pet rhe nearby horses. Kitchen was well stocked with equipment.
Absolutely beautiful views over the lake and hills and our kids really enjoyed the horses.Communication by email was good but when one member of our party tried to communicate directly with our host it was not so easy. Some maintenance is needed around the house. There is limited furniture for storing belongings if needed.

I am glad you enjoyed your stay. Not many holiday house owners get disturbed by a knock on the door and a phone call or text would have been appreciated.
Great stay for our extended family holiday. Our two dogs loved the property. We enjoyed the private jetty for boating and kayaking, large outdoor entertaining area, with plenty of lawn for parking, a tent and lawn games! Meryl was very responsive to any needs/requests in the lead up and during our stay. We hope to return!
Parking was good and enough room for a caravan. We had 11 people staying and felt the bedrooms didn’t have enough space for luggage.Overall the house could have been cleaner and we were supposed to get 2 towels per person but only received 1.

I wish you had asked for more towels Heather. My normal cleaner has had surgery and trained somebody new. Apologies.

:) :) We have 30 acres here, a track down to the beach and jetty. Ancient bush block to explore and horses to feed.
Meryl was great to communicate with. Large open plan kitchen, lounge dining was great for a big group. Outdoor BBQ area was fabulous. Wifi and SKY TV. Kitchen well equipped.
