Bright weekend away

Came up to Bright to hike Mt Featherop, this place was perfect accomodation. Very close to all of the shops and pubs in Bright and backs on to the river and walking path. Very clean and organised house, had everything we needed and good heating for colder months.

Fantastic location and facilities.

We are a young family and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Roses on the River. Location was awesome for accessing everything including the river, park, splash park, canyon walk and shops. We had everything we needed. The kitchen was well equiped and we had more than enough space. Easily one of the cleanest places I have stayed. The owners were lovely and easy to deal with. We hope to be back again one day!

Lovely place

The house is so beautifully maintained and has a distinct character to it. Every part of the house has been so neatly presented and is so comfortable. We loved the back garden and had heaps of plums from the tree behind. It is close to all facilities yet so quiet and calmly secluded from the main street. Having visited with out parents and kids, it was a wonderful and memorable family holiday. We will definitely visit again.

Lovely Home in the Perfect Location!

Thank you Rod & Paula! We had the best weekend escape in Bright and surrounds, thanks to having a lovely cozy base to stay in. Easy walk into the town center and woke up in the mornings to the sounds of the river. Great comfy couch and well setup lounge area for relaxing. Amazing kitchen/laundry/bathrooms and of course the garden is gorgeous! We hope to stay here again for future adventures in the area.

Lovely place to stay

Very neat and well maintained property. Excellent hosts. We had kids and needed microwave to warm up milk for them. When it was not working and we informed them, they replaced quickly. Very convenient to visit the shops or stroll along the river.

Fantastic stay

Perfect location within walking distance of Bright township. The place has everything you need to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. Rod came down just after arrival and went over a few of the mod cons in the house, as well as walk through the kitchen setup. The welcome bottle of wine was a bonus :). Extremely quiet and as I said well equipped. Certainly one to rebook for my next trip down
