Pleasant Stay

Very nice place to stay. The house was very comfortable and had everything you need for a getaway. Just a little over an hour to go to Hotham for a day trip to the snows and about an hour and half to Falls creek. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to get away from the city from a short getaway.

Lovely stay

Very comfortable stay with attention paid to the areas that matter, in comfy, quiet bedrooms, a good shower and a kitchen that worked well. Lots to see and do with the neighbourhood Punkah pub, Punkah pantry, river walks all within walking distance and Bright just a short drive away. Our family enjoyed the 3 night stay and wish we had another day. Thank you Olivia!

We spent a couple of nights at this lovely, comfortable cottage. It backs onto farmland, very peaceful. Large, well fenced garden for my dog. Great location to explore the Bright area from. Definitely book again.

Great spot for an autumn getaway

Property was ideal for our family of four. Porepunkah is a great location. Close to Bright (but not as busy) and the ideal starting point for a bike ride to the Happy Valley Hotel. Olivia was very easy to communicate with the front deck is a great spot to sit down with a book and a glass of wine as the day ends. Porepunkah Pub is walking distance and a great option for a nice, casual dinner.

Perfect

Olivia could not have been more helpful with the info and check in process and was very informative given we could have had some accessibility issues with one of our party. The house is a dream and we even stayed in one day to simply enjoy the patio and the sunshine. Recommended

Simply stunning

Gorgeous house in perfect location - short walk to Porepunkah and easy drive to Bright. Olivia was exceptionally easy to communicate with and allowed us to check in early and check out late. Firewood supplied. Clean, modern yet country style home. Will absolutely be back!!! Thank you Olivia!
