It was a perfect stay close to the Arthur Boyd arts centre at Bundanon. The host was very welcoming and the homemade bread was the best. We enjoyed the peace and quiet, although the night song of frogs in the pond did add to the rural scene.

relaxing country stay

The property is set off a very picturesque lagoon full of beautiful pink lilies. it superbly quiet which made our stay so relaxing. its situated close enough to the local amenities that a quick 15-minute drive you can get supplies if needed. the hosts were fantastic and were available if you needed anything. i would highly recommend Tapitallee Lodges for a relaxing stay

Very pleasant and quiet, as one would expect being 20 minutes out in the country from Nowra. Host was welcoming and not intrusive. Amenities were modern and clean with everything you needed. There was no Wi-Fi and had to rely on 4G phone (1 or 2 bars). Nice view over the dam with lots of water lilies, ducks and frogs in the evening.

Unique setting, comfort charm and great bird watching

Heron’s Rest was a great find. It offered a unique setting to relax in comfort and was only a few minutes away from Bundanon and the excellent gallery there. We used it as a base to explore the Shoalhaven Trev and Carol were helpful unobtrusive hosts with good local advice to share. We enjoyed our stay at Heron’s Rest very much. And there were wombats!

Perfect Escape

Had an absolutely wonderful stay at Heron’s Rest for 3 nights. We attended a wedding at Bundanon and staying here meant we only had a 5 minute drive! It was a lovely surprise to find freshly home baked bread upon our arrival and we ate it all! We slept serenely at night and enjoyed all the amazing wildlife during the day! Thanks ao much for having us!

Our stay for 3 weeks was so enjoyable, in a delightful and peaceful setting away from the busy Nowra and beachside places. We were very comfortable with owners generously supplying essentials including pantry items. We would recommend this property.

Fantastic hosts provide generous and personalized amenities - everything you need. Setting is the most beautiful natural environment you could imagine. Pond immediately out the front door with pontoon pier and patio provided perfect opportunity to be among the birds while enjoying a snack and drink. Spacious rooms to relax, sparking and clean on arrival. Nearby points of interest. We loved it and would highly recommend for a great experience and stay.

Trev n carol are amazing people. Our time there was a beautiful escape, it was an escape from the busy life we have. Incredible and relaxing. We celebrated our anniversary there and I can tell you it was perfect for us. We were both delighted with the loaf of bread Trev made which was beautifully made.

Hi Julie - Are you sure you have the correct cottage? You and Jim did not raise any issues when I dropped down to see you while you were relaxing with a wine out on the pontoon. There is no doona as there is a bedspread and I personally removed the two white and two blue pillow cases. This is is a copy of the text message you sent; "Goodmorning Trevor we are leaving now mate. Thankyou for having us hope to be back soon. Jim and Julie"

Quiet cottage in a lovely setting

The cottage overlooks the wide section of a creek which is filled with lotus and waterlilies, and it has a wooden pontoon which we found perfect for breakfasts and sundowners. The cottage is comfortable and peaceful, and we liked the facts that the interior is simple and unfussy, that the property is dog friendly and that there are things to do in the area if you're so inclined, but what we really appreciated was the generous supply of breakfast items, especially the fresh baked bread. Thank you Trev and Carol.

Peace Perfect Peace

We chose to have a very quiet Xmas this year. Staying for 4 nights at Heron’s Rest was peaceful calm and serene. The surroundings and scenery are beautiful with the dam taking centre stage with lotus flowers bobbing and blooming. A glass of wine on the pontoon and watching our dog get control of her ‘Pontoon legs’ was very entertaining! We had everything we needed in the accommodation. The skyscraper loaf of bread was sublime. We would definitely return. Thanks again to our hosts.

Heron's Rest @Tapitallee Lodges

The impression of the property is pretty much as you see in the pictures, with some more lilli pads out on the water. My eldest son and I stayed for two nights. The hosts, Trev and Carol were a friendly couple. who made our stay Upon entering the holiday house there was a bottle of red and a freshly baked loaf of bread and nibbles. In the fridge were all the fresh ingredients for a hearty breakfast in the morning. A large wombat moseyed across the balcony. We left the windows open both evenings to listen to the chorus of different frog sounds. In the mornings skinks a small water dragons sun baked on the pontoon in the morning sun. I highly recommend a stay at the Heron's Rest @ Tapitalee Lodges. We look forward to going back there again. Thanks Trev and Carol
