Lacation is great, There was no saucepan, and basic items such as salt and pepper, and no door for the toilet. It's ok for a overnight stay in my opinion.

Ideal for a quick trip

We stayed for one night. It was a good size for our family and one of the more child friendly places we’ve stayed. It would have been great to have some soap and a smart tv or dvd player so we could watch the amazing collection of movies.

Brown Hills

Place was very cosy particularly the heaters on cold winters day. Location was ideal, just of the highway, 4k to city centre, on arriving very tired fish and chip store only 2 doors away and then after a long day at Sovreign Hill the next day just 8 doors the other way to the pub. Very clean. I certainly recommend this property.

The house needed a good clean. Floors needed sweeping, rugs a vacuum, cooking oven was not fit for purpose - fifthy. Clothes dryer packed full with wet washing.Not one saucepan in the place and our requests were ignored. No door to the toilet.Bed linen and towels are old and tired looking. Had to clean the fridge out before we could put our precious food in it.Three bins in the carport were all overflowing with garbage when we arrived and when we left. We didn't see anyone !

Pretty average

Ok place but not very clean and poorly kept. Little attention to detail. Bring your own toilet paper and tea/coffee supplies. Wifi doesn’t work. Was fine for an overnight stopover.
