Great place to relax!!

Our family loved the property with huge backyard. The kids thoroughly enjoyed playing in the lawn, which was well maintained. The location is great and walkable distance to the lake. The complimentary items provided was a pleasant surprise which tasted great. Overall I would recommend this place to anyone looking for quiet getaway and very near to the city.

Loved the house and grounds. The wood fire, hamper and bird feeder were lovely additions.

We arrived to find the front garden in full bloom with cherry blossum and partare garden hedging magnificient. The house was warm and welcoming with music playing on the tv, which also had foxyel, netflix, apple tv and Dysney+, so the children were set to watch all their favourite shows. Wifi was also fast and plentiful which met the adults maslow hierarchy of needs most adequately. The rooms were beautifully set out and sleeping for eight meant the whole family were able to stay for the weekend. We enjoyed the kangaroos and cockatoos and rosellas coming in for a feed.
