Fabulous house

We loved this home! Perfect size for 2 couples, absolutely spotless property, comfortable beds and pillows- nice linen. Kitchen was well equipped, the layout was good for a group. Beautifully decorated in period style, a nice library of books too. Good heating options for the chilly nights this time of year. Lovely quiet location - a short walk to the bush and walking track with lovely views, plenty of wildlife around. Check in and out was super easy and efficient. Highly recommend this property
