Very pleasant, relaxing and well equiped country spot

The whole experience was pleasant. The layout of the house was really cosy and warm. The house was well stocked with plenty of essentials. Sibastian was very friendly. Such a great local environment with a farm and cows in the distance. Would come back again!

Absolutely amazing.

We had a nice couple of days staying at this place.David greet us personally and showed around.Very clean and inviting atmosphere.Lots of games, many old cd’s that was lovely to watch.Surroundings are the best, so nice and quiet.Lovely to wake up by yourself without cars honking and other noises, just random cockatoos and kookaburras screaming at each other .Would love some breakfast food in the pantry, but otherwise all was perfect.

Relaxing

Sibastian was very helpful . Everything was as we expected . The tomatoes were beautiful . Thx . The wild life was very nice. Peaceful surroundings. Would be nice to have dinner on the deck if it was warmer weather . The price is very reasonable which enabled us to stay longer. Your Dad and Christine were lovely. Thx again for the use of your BnB. Kind regards Mary and Warren

Country tranquillity with all mod cons

We stayed here for a weekend in June 2019 - very well-equipped kitchen (full oven and dishwasher); plentiful supply of firewood ready and waiting inside for the very efficient wood heater (which in a nice touch had been lit before we arrived); plenty of options for sitting in comfy chairs, couches and at the large dining table and great views to the 8 acres of veggie patches and bush. It's an easy 2k walk to the Pig and Whistle. Be aware though that the Stayz map is inaccurate so make sure you check the street address. We'd have no hesitation in returning to enjoy more of David and Sibastian's hospitality.
