"Very Spacious house and large parking for multi-car travellers."

8.0

Very spacious car park/front area, the house is also very spacious for 3 bed house, everything you need is ready inside, ready to use, from washing to cooking. Large TV with OTT-ready and the front yard night sky view is amazing. Also has a fast internet connection available.

The only thing missing is a heat pump/air conditioner for the main area; it has small heaters in each room for colder nights.

"Over all this is a lovely BnB and I will gladly recommend them in the future. ☺️"

10.0

Lovely quiet location BnB was clean and tidy

There is nothing I didn’t particularly like about this property, however I did feel it would benefit from at least one extra portable cooling unit for the bedrooms as they were very hot when sleeping, having windows without fly screens made them unable to be left open at night and did make sleeping a little uncomfortable.

"Could have comfortably for a lot longer."

10.0

It was beautiful, peaceful, clean & spacious. Leanne & Geoff were so welcoming & helpful. Leanne shared some of their home grown delicious fruit & vegetables. See picture. Geoff drove Dan to pick up our rental. Anything we needed they were there to help. Awesome!! Close to town but far enough away!

A few more cooking utensils and a lid for the skillet would be nice.

Wszystko! Domek był przestronny, bardzo dobrze wyposażony i czysty. Bardzo ładny ogród. Szkoda że tylko dwie noce tam spędziliśmy.
