The Space
For us the property has become a place to share with family, friends & others. It's close to many local attractions but has the serenity of rural living.

Guest Access
The separate bungalow, affectionately known as 'The Cattery' provides quiet, spacious accommodation and (more recently) a bathroom, featuring shower, toilet and basin.

There is an open Cabana that has a BBQ, bar fridge, running water, glassware/crockery/cutlery/speakers/music.

You will have access to the Pool, the Fernery (a quiet place to sit) and all the surrounding places to wander.

Other things to note
There is heaps of parking, caravans are welcome, and we'll be happy to help with other things you may need.

NB: It is imperative you give us an accurate ETA on the day of your arrival. It is a large property and someone needs to be on hand when you arrive to show you where to park, what areas you can access, and where lights, water and amenities are located.

Canine Friends are OK, host MUST be notified on booking; $10 fee applies per night per animal. On-lead is a must until introductions are made. There are many critters including chooks, and we like to make sure your pet(s) is not going to harm ours!

A young kelpie (Rossi) resides here permanently, as do 3 chickens, a cow or two and plenty of resident critters.

Great stay over at Charity Creek for a couple of days.

Peaceful country property

The property is very peaceful and relaxing. The bungalow is farm rustic, clean and comfy. The open outdoor kitchen is very well stocked and it is a lovely place to sit at night and have dinner or early breakfast with the birds. The fresh eggs were also very appreciated! You are a ways on country roads from most things so bring what you need with you and relax. Sandy and Rossi are great hosts. TV is DVD only which was fine for us. Note: the bathroom is only divided by a partial wall which does not offer a lot of privacy (depending on who is staying and your comfort level this is fine) however, there is spare another bathroom in the house that Sandy is happy for you to use. Thanks for making us feel welcome (even Bailey our big boof head Bernese)!

Great break away from it all!

Fantastic spot to get away from it all. We loved it despite a lot of rain! The cabana is a beautiful place to cook and chill out and enjoy the bush views (BBQ and attached burner plus fridge with freezer compartment). Really appreciated use of the pool. Sandie was a great host. Very helpful and great to chat with, but we felt that we had our own space . Our little boy loved the egg collecting and gecko spotting ( and we appreciated the lovely surprise breakfast ). Thank you Sandie! The accommodation is comfortable, with three beds and a sofa and TV for watching DVDs. WiFi available, but we didn't find it reliable. We had mobile reception at the property though. Our dog had a ball with Rossi the kelpie, but we had to separate them occasionally as Rossie is as bouncy and full on as a 9month kelpie usually is and ours wanted a break. Great stay. We are missing the froggy night noises!

Enchanting

My children and I spent three magical nights at Charity Creek. We loved the pool, and enjoyed relaxing, cooking and eating in the Cabana, whilst taking in the beautiful views. The night sky is breathtaking and must be seen to be believed. The children enjoyed exploring the beautiful gardens and bush walks, helping to feed the chickens and playing with a much beloved puppy. Sandy is a generous, kind and attentive host, accomodating us at short notice, and making us feel welcome and at home on arrival. We were sorry to leave are already planning our next stay at this special retreat. Thank you Sandy!

Dog Friendly Country Retreat

My son & I were in the area for Mountain Biking and wanted somewhere out of the city. For us the property was brilliant and just as described. Sandy was an excellent host as was her communication prior to our visit. We brought our two dogs, they loved the house yard (didn't get to explore further due to the weather) and Sandy was wonderful keeping an eye on them while we were riding Kiwarrak True country hospitality, it was a pleasure to stay there. We will be returning.
