The countryside in this area is a slice of heaven with its mountains on all sides and the house is perfectly situated with north easterly views from the veranda. Very comfy, quality linen and towels - lots to love.

Great stay in the country

Large well appointed rambling house in a very quiet location just outside Gloucester. Good wildlife interaction with lots of birds, microbats, horse grazing in paddock next door and a menagerie running around in a paddock across the road.

Spacious house

We are a group of 'mature' adults who like to get away from time to time. We were very happy with Hamilton House and the excellent communication with the host.

Property was beautiful, lovely place to stay However there was either mouse or cockroach poo under the kitchen sink and in the pantry. My friend also said one of the beds had stained sheets. Other then that great place to stay!

Forbesdale

Lovely quiet location, large clean home, good quality comfortable beds, lovely linen, true to listing and excellant contact with host. We enjoyed our stay. House needs the following attention. Most windows dont latch closed. No point having lockable doors when you can slide open the windows! Window screens need replacing. Laundry needs a tub. Gaps between windows and doors to walls need to be filled so air doesnt come in or bugs. Water in vanity closest to the living area needs looking at as it has limited flow. Verandah decking needs replacing its dangerous. Outside areas need cleaning up. Lots of rubbish and looks like a building site. Overall needs a good spruce up. It doesnt look like it is loved. Bedrooms without wardrobes needs a bench to place your suitcase and a hanging rack.

Thank you for your feedback, I have taken it on board and had a clean up of things that were about ( just before your visit I had changed over the indoor fire and a vanity, so yes there weee some things about ). As far as places to store clothes & no wardrobes , I’m not sure where you were looking but 2 of the bedrooms at one end of the house have large wardrobes with draws and hanging. The other 3 bedrooms all have either a chair, dresser, side table and then utilise the walk through robe just before the bathroom with plenty of draws and hanging area
