Very welcoming to pets, would have been lovely if there had been an off-leash area somewhere on the property. A slightly more comprehensive range of cooking utensils and pans would also have been great. Overall, a lovely relaxing few days in a beautiful setting

Room wasn't super clean but fine. Very quiet so made for a relaxing stay. Nice to look out on the bushland. Breakfast left a bit to be desired. Cereal was mostly empty. I feel it was quite expensive for what it offered.

Was advertised with wifi but there is no wifi in rooms. Also bed was very hard and bedding wasnt great. Toilet seat wasnt attached and coffee machine was broken. The location more than makes up for the shortcomings but with a bit of updating of technology and beds etc could be so much nicer. Has definite five star potential but needs work and no wifi when advertised to have it is a bit rude at this price point.
