Guest Reviews

• Garrick (10/5): - Quiet, beautiful location, close access to shop, easy drive into the city if needed. Beautifully appointed and very spacious. We were even provided with complimentary food in the kitchen - milk, eggs, fresh fruit, breakfast basics! We found this very thoughtful.
• Taraifina (10/5): Home away from home!! - Beautiful home with everything one would ever need. Mary the owner is so lovely and friendly, down to earth, very accommodating and welcoming. There was a welcome basket on arrival containing thoughtful yummy goodies. Basic staples were provided in cupboard and fridge. Loved the peace and serenity of the location and surroundings. Nothing. LOVED everything!!
• Louise (9/5): I had a wonderful stay at the Folly. Mary was such an accommodating host and the supplies on arrival -
• Janice (9/5): - For my purpose of being in Glenorie,it was excellent Everything i could have asked there in terms of self catering was already there. And the host,Mary,was exceptionall friendly and accommodating
• Amanda (9/5): We had a fabulous stay at The Folly, would definitely recommend! - Beautiful location, with lots of wildlife around - lovely to be staying somewhere so green!
• casey (10/5): -
• louisekgrech (9/5): -
• Thomas (10/5): Perfect location - Quiet, clean and comfortable
• Peter (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful amenities and breakfast basket was a nice touch. Beds were comfortable and you have everything you need. Nothing
• Jan (10/5): Quiet, pristine bungalow in pretty garden setting - We really enjoyed our peaceful stay in The Folly. The bungalow was so clean and fresh and well set up with kitchen needs including some food staples, food wraps, etc as well as breakfast items such as muffins, eggs and fruit. The beds were very comfortable, and there were a variety of pillows. Good block out blinds, wifi and plenty of power points. As well as all the listed facilities, extra blankets, bed linen and towels were provided. Our host Mary was very helpful and easily contactable. The Glenorie shops are just a few minutes drive away and include Woolworths and the Glenorie Bakery.
• Lori (10/5): Amazing and comfortable stay - Fantastic location for us. Owners have really thought about what the guest would need. Everything was there and owners were on hand if you need anything Loved it all
• Marian (9/5): Nice little cottage - Well equipped, tranquil, lovely views to the garden, reliable WiFi and Mary left nice goodies for us for the brekkie!
• Ken (10/5): Exceptional -
• John (10/5): Just what we wanted. - The location was perfect for us. The Folly was very comfortable and our hosts Mary & Peter made us very welcome.
• Norma (9/5): its fantastic -
• Maria (7/5): It would have been perfect, apart from the situation that did put a damper on it. - Very convenient for our purpose to be close to family. Beautiful setting. Welcoming and comfortable, clean and neat accommodation, with all one needs. We really enjoyed our stay and cannot fault anything apart from the noise from the party next door until 3 am, which put the host in a difficult position to us, her guests and herself as owner, manager and (good) neighbour. The hosts kind offers of alternative accommodation and presenting earplugs, were much appreciated. However, the neighbours hosting the party, were both unfair to the host, their neighbours, and us, the guests. The hours of the party noise was illegal according to NSW law. Period. Their notifying the police didn’t make it legal to go beyond the lawful hours. They really put the host and guests on the spot and in a difficult position. We do however, didn’t feel it was up to us as guests to file a complaint, which we didn’t. We felt it was the responsibility of the owner and host to acquaint themselves of the legalities and make clear to the neighbours that the hours of their noisy party fell outside the legal limits and by notifying the police doesn’t make all hours suddenly acceptable.
• Karen (10/5): More than I expected. - Everything needed was there. Host was welcoming. Was used as the night before wedding to accommodate bride, mother & father of bride, and in the morning for dressing, makeup, hair and photography. Space in the morning was large enough for makeup artist, two hairdressers, five bridesmaids, photographers and mother & father of bride to get ready for wedding. Plenty of room for cars. Nothing to complain about.
• Milos (9/5): Superb -
• Joey (8/5): Quiet stay with all amenities and convenience you need. - Cute little cottage style home with easy parking. Nice breakfast hamper provided with staples making it convenient in mornings. Cleaning could be a bit more thorough as the floors was still dusty and I spotted a few dead bugs around. It would have be ideal if there was an additional fan as it was hot nights we had to leave one of the bedroom door open to cool it down from living AC.
• Mia (10/5): Amazing stay. One of the best AIRBNB ive stayed at. Fully stocked kitchen, it felt super homey. - Location was great at we were visting family in Glenoire. It was super close to the woolies
• Meredith (9/5): Very much enjoyed our weekend stay here, close to shops, restaurants. - Modern, clean and tidy 2 bedroom place perfect for my son and I, down what reminded me of an English country lane, far enough away from the main road not to hear much traffic. Washer and dryer included. Appreciated the provision of some food including eggs, milk, butter etc. Friendly host. Maybe it’s just personal preference but like most modern homes it has an open sided shower which allows water to spray out and wet the floor outside the shower stall. Perhaps could benefit from a shower curtain.
• The (10/5): Very great Service from the owner Mary, very accommodating. - Very clean home, with GREAT Service. Mary was accommodating to my NDIS participant. Overall great getaway!

The garden was the perfect place to enjoy the breakfast. The details and interior were immaculate. The place was very clean and well stocked. The book selection was entertaining.

• Jerry (10/5): One of the best stays I had so for in Nsw - Loved the folly felt welcoming Mary’s the best
• Jocelyn (9/5): Superb - The country side rural setting! Heating didn't work well in the rooms.
• Ryan (10/5): Cute country get away - Clean, comfortable and great location Nothing to note
• L (9/5): Superb -
• Jane (10/5): Fabulous fun times at the Folly for all the family! - The Folly is clean, quiet and convenient with all the necessities provided. Our host was friendly and welcoming and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We’d definitely choose to stay at the Folly again. The internet was patchy at best with a couple of days with almost no internet at all. Fine for a family holiday so long as you’re ok with free to air tv but we would have had difficulty if we’d had poor weather and were stuck inside.
• Brian (9/5): Superb -
• Kim (10/5): beautiful spot, would definitely stay again - fantastic facilities, beautiful setting, convenient location nothing
• Annika (9/5): Would book again. - Hosts are lovely and extremely accommodating. No hot water on the first morning, but the hosts were very responsive and quick to rectify by changing the gas over. Overall, only a very small blip.
• Anonymous (9/5): Beautiful location with cute and great property. - clean, cute and roomy. a few spider webs around the house.
• Gina (10/5): All in all it was an impeccable stay. Peaceful cozy place and beautiful host. - Breakfast provided was to be self prepared and cooked. Generous for 2 nights stay for 2. The Wifi sadly did not work and mobile service connection was really poor, but if you like being off grid and just need a break from the digital world then it is perfect solitude. Nothing really bad to say about the place. Host is beyond an amazing person. She welcomed us on our arrival and provided our request of supply though it was already late. I would love to come back if permitted.
• Melanie (9/5): Superb -
• Jan (8/5): Very good - A lovely welcoming home to stay, in such a pretty location! Thankyou Mary for your attention to detail and warm welcome.
• Melanie (8/5): Very comfortable and cost accommodation. -
• Kathy (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lauren (10/5): 11/10. Best accommodation I've come across! - The breakfast was fantastic! I was highly impressed with what was provided. The location was great. It was safe, peaceful, quiet and parking right out the front. The place was spotless and so relaxing. I loved that there was netflix on the TV and the beds were wonderful. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The accommodation itself was so comfortable and gorgeous. I would have liked to stay longer and was so impressed by all the little touches. I couldn't speak highly enough of the Folly and Mary was so helpful and lovely. Nothing. This place was perfect and had everything and more.
