Fantastic family getaway
Beautiful property that had plenty of room for our extended family. The creek is so much fun and you have it all to yourself - it's also far enough away from the house that you don't have to worry as much about your small kids wandering down there by themselves. Heaps of cooking options with a large fridge / freezer and coffee machine as well. We are already keen to come back!

Fantastic for group of friends or family get together
This property is all we, a group of 4 ladies on a girls' weekend, could have hoped for. We each had our own bedroom and the living areas were large and plenty. Lots of spots to choose from to catch or escape the sun, window seats, large indoor couches, 2 outdoor lounges, etc. We used the firepit( wood supplied) and spent a lovely evening under the full moon. Large spacious kitchen, 2 lovely bathrooms to share. The property is peaceful and spectacular, the only sounds are birds and cows. The photos are true to the real-life. For a getaway for friends or a family escape it is perfect, with spare beds in most rooms, it could sleep 10-12 (we counted but I've forgotten the exact amount!) Communication with Debbie was excellent, even though we didn't get to meet as she was unwell, so we met Rick who showed us through the house. They have a house at the top of the hill so are there if needed, but otherwise they leave you to it. We were all blown away by the house and property and it exceeded our expectations. I recommend doing a shop for all that you need before you go as there isn't a supermarket particularly close by. Canungra is a lovely little town about 15 minutes drive away and we went to Cafe Metz both days for lunch/brunch- also highly recommended. For a peaceful, quiet getaway from everything- this is the spot and if the price is split between friends/family, we all felt it was excellent value. Highly and heartily recommended.

Heavenly , old rustic large country home
We are a family, we swam in the creek, played games, cooked, canoed , walked, relaxed on the beautiful outdoor verandahs and took in the serene views. Watched the cattle, saw a rabbit, a few kangaroes. Debra & Rick the hosts were lovely. So we as a family just loved it.

We had a wonderful holiday with our little family. My boys 3 and 5 + our 13 yr old Labrador enjoyed the surrounds. Our dog swam in the creek, while the boys enjoyed kayaking with us. Deb and her husband are wonderful hosts and were always happy to help out with any questions/concerns. Thanks Su

If you are looking to disconnect and experience a relaxing weekend in glorious surroundings - this is the place! Debra was the most incredible host (what a woman!). The house is so beautiful and the grounds were absolutely gorgeous...cups of tea watching the sun rise, listening to the bubbling stream, reading a book on the huge verandah couches hearing the wildlife or by the fire - and the cutest, friendliest cows. What Debra has created is a dream home in the country. Highly recommend for anyone looking to recharge or entertain!

Amazing place to escape the city
Relaxing break, Debbie and Rick are amazing hosts, more then happy to help you feel like at home during your stay. Spacious property with lots of character. The kids aand the puppy enjoyed playing outside and kayaking in the creek. Just make sure you have a good 4WD as crossing the creek bridges can get a bit challenging if it gets too rainy.

Absolutely amazing
We stayed here with our two children and my parents and fur babies. When we first arrived we were lost for words! The property and the surrounds are just incredible!!! We loved every minute of our stay. Everything you need is here and every detail is thought of. The fire pit down by the creek was the highlight for us as we spent the day by the creek kayaking, picnicking and sunbathing and in the evening we had a bbq and sat by the fire. Before bed we would sit around the dining table back at the house playing board games and then retire to the living room so settle into the comfy couches and watch some telly. We cannot wait to be back and cannot thank our hosts enough for the opportunity to stay at this beautiful property. Over the years we have stayed at many farm houses/homesteads and this property by far outshines all of them. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!! Dave, Nelly and kiddies and Mike and Renata

What a wonderful place to get away from everything and just unwind. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would definately return. We spent both days relaxing by the creek with a wine and the kids and my border collie enjoyed exploring the creek. Debra was the perfect host and offered lots of support if needed. The house is big, lovely and had absolutely everything you need. If you are after somewhere to hide away and recharge this is a great place to go.

The perfect start to our year
When we first drove through the gates, into the property, we already knew it was going to be perfect. By the time we reached the gardens we had smiles from ear to ear. Debra was absolutely amazing as she showed us around the property and the house. She made us feel right at home from the get-go. Our stay was a short one, however we could easily have stayed longer if we had the time. They had everything you could possibly need as well, which gave the stay that extra touch. We appreciated the effort greatly. Thank you for having us at your property, it was so much MORE than what we thought we booked.
