About this property

Wonga - A secluded oasis in the heart of Parkes

Wonga has been our beautiful home for the past 7 years and while we are off on an adventure we are offering it for others to enjoy.

Built in 1860, it was one of the original homes in the area. Established gardens surround the house. Covering nearly 6000m2, there is plenty of space to walk around the garden with a glass of champagne in hand. The pool area is a delight and will provide many hours of entertainment.

Old world charm

Great apportunity to immerse yourself in the hustory of Parkes. Extensive garden and spacious house. Care should be taken with uneven flooring for elderly or young. Great for large family gathering with outdoor eating and pool if weather appealing. House was clean and more then comfortable for our stay. Good communication with owner who was more than happy to provide details on how to make our stay more comfortable.

Hidden gem

Awesome visit - just what we needed. A charming house with great gardens to unwind and relax. Totally secluded but within walking distance to town centre and close to Showgrounds which was a great place to walk the dog! Thanks James for offering any assistance needed!
