Great location for a family gathering

The location was perfect for our extended family. There was plenty of space for all ages to either gather together or to have some time apart. The beds were extremely comfy and the rooms were well heated. The welcoming wine and chocolates were a delightful surprise. All in all an outstanding, spacious property.

Splendid serenity

The property is nestled on an amazing plot of land with so much room for activities, and with such great views, it's the perfect getaway. The interior is well furbished, the outdoor patio bbq area is clean and has everything you need, there are shops nearby and the owners were super helpful and friendly, making the experience very worthwhile. The heater and fireplaces were all in working condition, the rooms are comfortable, the living areas have good entertainment inputs, and there is a pool room with its own bedroom next to it - which my friends and family loved.

Wholesome and Exciting

Group of 10 adults, staying two nights for a surprise birthday celebration. Everyone had a strong reaction of ‘wow’ as we walked in. Immaculate, spacious, and welcoming. After only a few minutes of reviewing the well thought out signage and opening doors, the atmosphere quickly felt like home. The multiple living spaces all invite social activities and conversation, instead of TV or other distractions. Progressing to dinner was met with a meticulously organised and over resourced kitchen, banquet style dining area, and a stunning sunset view over the pool and grass. (The pool was very popular, but three paragraphs of praise is getting long!) The hosts of this stay have created a wonderful home, and sharing it was a privilege.

Great place to stay for family and friends.

Had a group of friends visiting from overseas. The estate was perfect as it allowed us to accommodate for everyone with different activities. The host was super friendly, organised and the property was as described.
