Beautiful views of cathedral Ranges. Lovely and comfortable chalet style home with everything we needed. Loved sitting by the fire watching the scenery change. Location is so peaceful with lots of nature around. We were happy to just chill each day there. Close to Cathedral Ridge hike. Would recommend only doing North ridge circuit if not experienced but worth the views. Host is great and provided everything needed.

A unique property with beautiful souroundings

We had an unforgettable stay here. From the moment we arrived, we felt at peace, surrounded by nature and the warmth of this beautiful home. The craftsmanship and character of the house are truly special. Waking up to stunning views and birdsong each morning was magical. We spent our days exploring, relaxing, and enjoying quality family time. Our little one loved every moment, and our dog had a great time too, with plenty of space to roam. Thank you for sharing this beautiful space with us. We leave with full hearts and cherished memories, hoping to return one day.

Great view with hotel grade satisfaction

Great host, communication and hospitality.A solid house made of stone bricks and wood, with antique fittings that are truly impressive. A must-see for anyone interested in architecture.The separate game room offers plenty of space and features a ping-pong table—enough entertainment without even leaving the property.What moved us the most was the vastness of the grounds and the stunning scenery. Be sure to wake up before sunrise and watch as the colors of the landscape gradually change. We were especially lucky to visit during the autumn foliage season.There’s even a hiking trail up the hill behind the house—just a 15-minute walk. It’s a great attraction in itself, even without going anywhere else.The cleanliness, well-equipped facilities, and thoughtful amenities are at a level that would satisfy even hotel lovers.Highly recommended for those who enjoy river fishing and hiking.

Everything was amazing beyond expectations. The house was beautiful and lovely. It was stocked with everything that we needed for our weekend away i would suggest to bring gum boots as the property can get muddy if it rains and you will need them to go for a stroll around to see all the wildlife. Drive slowly at night as there are lots of kangaroos around. The kids loved seeing the roos following the cat up the driveway. The fire place was amazing kept us warm all night especially the top bedroom upstairs it was nice and toastie
