Guest Reviews
- Bronwyn (10/5): - I like the privacy and the open space
- Renee (8/5): Peaceful location away from the busy world - Location Place needs new curtains and at least one place to have reception for mobile phones
- Edwards (10/5): Perfect in every way! - Everything was perfect!
- Skyknight (8/5): -
- Anne (10/5): A very peaceful place to stay - A lovely little cottage with everything you need to be self catering. Lots of animals and beautiful surroundings. Only 15 minute drive from Beverley. All good.
- Barry (7/5): - Nice and quiet
- Lynn Jackson (10/5): - The tranquilness, peacefulness and privacy we experienced. Nothing was too much trouble for Jean & Teresa if we requested something. Loved all the wildlife in and around the property. The Quarters where we stayed was so much more than we expected and was so comfortable for us. The only thing we thought could need improving was the signage for the Property, we feel it needs to be brought out more to the road, be made brighter and put where drivers can see it when approaching from both directions however, aside from that, we would recommend Lavendale Country Retreat to Friends without hesitation.
- Allen (8/5): Enjoyed the quiet,pool and animals.Lovely accommodation. - Quite very clean our daughter loved the pool and animals. No oven or air fryer, sandwich machine which would have been a bonus for cooking.
The lounge needed repairs and was uncomfortable.
- Alicia (8/5): - Loved our Bali Hai stay. Great set up- will be back!
- Singay (10/5): Lovely country retreat with plenty of space, farm animals and a refreshing pool. - The BBQ stove at Bali Hai wasn't working, so we used the one at other property we had booked (Valencia).
- Hugo Raemi (10/5): - The lap pool is great and very clean
- Susann (10/5): - Beautiful and peaceful surroundings. Cozy accommodation. We stayed at the farmhouse and there was plenty of space for a family of 4. Will fit up to 8 people! We were right across the pool and the playground.
The narrow lap pool is 1.2m deep across it's whole length of 20meters. We had a beautiful swim in there with the kids!
The kids particularly enjoyed the farm animals and even got the opportunity to help feed some of them.
A very pleasant stay and one to consider revisiting for a short getaway.
- Anastasia (10/5): A great place to wind down and to be close to nature - The cottage we stayed in was very clean and well-maintained, it had everything we need there, from all the bedding with additional blankets to cutlery/crockery and cleaning products. Kids loved how closely they could come to animals and enjoyed feeding them. The activity room provided extra entertainment for the kids.
- Catherine (10/5): Wonderful - The peace comfort and company, fresh shower was beautiful Some breakfast options
- Sumaya (9/5): -
- richard (9/5): -
- Deepak (7/5): - The location is superb. Farm is nicely maintained with plenty of animals. Nice olive trees all around. Tennis in the pool area was an absolute bonus for my 7 year kid. Room wasn't very clean. This is an area which can be improved upon. Though staff was immensely helpful and kind. They got the issues resolved quickly.
- Michael (8/5): Relaxing and re- energising - The location is great for relaxing from the city hustle and bustle
- Sabine (10/5): A blissful stay, so good for the soul. - A peaceful and quiet location, surrounded by native birds, views over hills, bush, and farmland. There are many farm animals that are used to people, and love a bit of bread or carrot. Excellent comfortable and clean facilities. A cute selection of houses and cabins to stay in. Very friendly and helpful caretakers. Avon river is close, a short walking distance. A blissful stay, so good for the soul.
- Gwen (10/5): - Everything
- Beverly (9/5): -
- Valerie (10/5): - We loved our stay at Lavendale Country retreat, I travelled with 3 other ladies to attend a line dancing night in the York Town hall, we loved our house {The Lodge} it was really big with plenty of beds, the beds were very comfortable. Lovely large kitchen, and great Patio, we had breakfast outside enjoying the country sounds and the quiet. Nothing we enjoyed out stay and already booked again for 2 visits next year.
- Kenneth (8/5): If you want a quiet get away from people and the Internet this is the place for you!!! - Remote and fully equipped Nothing
- Aina Syasya (10/5): -
- bongkyu (10/5): 정말 잘 쉬었다 갑니다 :) - 솔직히 기대하진 않았던 곳이었어요.
하지만 정말정말 너무 좋은곳이었습니다.
조용한 시골, 편안한 내부, 따뜻한 물도 너무 잘나왔어요.
냉장고가 커서 많은 음식을 보관이 가능합니다.
요리하기에도 적합한 주방이었습니다.
소파도 편하고 침대도 좋았어요. 조용히 혼자만의 시간을 즐기기에 너무 적합한 곳입니다.
또한 와이파이만 없을뿐 인터넷은 정말 잘 작동하는 곳이었어요.
혼자 혹은 두분이서 정말 쉬고싶을때 먹을거 잔뜩 구매해서 놀러오세요! 그래도 와이파이가 있으면 좋긴 할거같아요.
욕실에 바디워시밖에 없었어요...
그리고 바디워시, 샴푸, 컨디셔너를 걸어둘수있는 헹거가 있으면 좋을거같아요.
- Clark (8/5): - Relaxing farm environment
- shannon (7/5): -
- Denis (10/5): - Great location. Quiet and relaxing. Great facilities and very comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay. Nil
- Liana (10/5): -
- NASREEN (9/5): -
- Yolanda (9/5): Farm experience close to nature - It’s in a farm. A very special farm stay experience. Short drive from York. Very quiet and home like. Has kitchen, TV, DVD player and everything we needed. Very good value for money.
- Leslie (8/5): - The chalet was cute. Having a wood fire was great as the night got really cold.
It was lovely to see the animals and the river. The floor in the bathroom doorway really creaked. We had a lot more noise from the road than we expected.
- James (9/5): - Great spacious areas and awesome having animals around to get you in the country vibe Could use WiFi, would happily pay more if it were possible to have it available at a shared source.
- Peter (7/5): Overall Above Average, - All was Good, request's were Met,..
I was under the impression We would get the More secluded Cabin, however that may have simply been a miss understanding on my part when on Web site booking!...
The couch in lounge not very comfortable for too long!
Signage on entrance needs to be highlighted more at night, And only just manageable during day ,..we missed it twice!...
Service was second to none
Good parking, rooms well Equipped. As explained, signing on main road couldbe Way better.
- Jennifer (8/5): A comfortable, relaxing holiday in the country. -
- Katherine (9/5): Lovely spot for families. Loved being able to walk/ride our bikes around and view the animals. -
- Marieta (9/5): - Peaceful location, very clean, comfy beds, kitchen had everything needed. Spacious bathroom and clean. Loved feeding the animals, especially our son. Lots of blankets, though the aircond kept us warm all night. Beautiful place to get away for the weekend and have a stress free environment. We had an amazing stay in the Quarters. Thinking to come back soon! Nothing!
- Elaine (7/5): Rose Cottage - Bed was comfortable.
Kitchen was practical.
Nice shower. DVD player didn't work when we lost satellite reception on TV.
No salt and pepper
Wood for fire on second day was not delivered.
- damon (10/5): - I was very happy with my stay . I will stay again if in the area again
- Stephanie (8/5): Lovely quiet place to stay in the country. - We have stayed here many times. It has a special charm about it, quiet and relaxing. The beds are comfy and the log fire is awesome. There are very few animals here now and no feeding times or organized interaction times like there used to be, that was the best bit.
- Cooper (10/5): -
- SATOKO (7/5): -
- john (7/5): -
- Timothy (9/5): Very good - Quiet, comfortable & clean with all the necessities
- chynna (10/5): -
- mark (10/5): -
- Andrew (9/5): było za krótko, tylko jedna noc, - Było OK, pięknie, stylowo i czysto. tylko zwierząt za mało i za dużo ogrodzeń. No i brak dostepu do internetu był kłopotliwy, prowadzimy bizness i nawet na wakacjach potrzebujemy mieć kontakt.
- Sanjaya (10/5): - Location Nothing
- Stride (10/5): - Quietness. Very relaxing. Matches didn't light but it didn't matter.
- Connor (10/5): %100 worth it! - I really liked how we would freely interact with the animals. I also really liked how cosy the Rose Cottage was with the ability to have a fire. That I didn't stay another 2 days.
- Gregory (9/5): Superb -
- Stride (8/5): Very good - Quietness Going home
- Roslyn (10/5): Exceptional - Had a lovely time in the Aussie farm house, very clean, had everything we needed and even a few animals to look at.
- Linnette (9/5): Superb -
- Anna (10/5): amazing stay, awesome beds - Very nice accommodation, quiet and beautiful surroundings. The beds are super comfortable The sign to turn off to the property is a bit hidden
- Claudia (10/5): Relaxing, warm, quality family time in a very clean environment, with great facilities and amenities - We had the best time. It was instantly relaxing as soon as we arrived. Our little baby enjoyed seeing all of the animals. The rooms had ample heating to keep us warm Nothing. We loved it all
- Maxim (8/5): Good place for a short stay near York - Good location near York and Beverly, very silent, have 2 alpacas and one emu (great friendly bird). Have old films on dvd)))) No WiFi, alpacas are not very friendly, however carrot might help;)
- 479antonias (8/5): Very good - We loved being able to wander around and explore the property and meet all the animals.
- Amy (8/5): A lovely getaway close to Perth to give the ‘taste’ of a farm experience with the quaint town of York close by for meals - Lovely to have animals around and enjoyed walking to the river and using the recreational facilities. The pool had worm-like creatures on the bottom so kids were a bit put off to use it.
- Louise (10/5): Peaceful and Tranquil. - The large battery storeage unit and commitment to sustainability ..
Location looking over undisturbed native flora and fauna.
- Suzanne (8/5): Holiday relaxation at Lavendale. - We loved the privacy of the chalets, very quiet,
Hot shower. The shower arm needs fixing flops down.
- Lee-ann (7/5): Overall we still enjoyed our time away with a few challenges. - The space between accomodation is good.
Easy access to the farm animals.
Friendly staff. There were so many flies and midgies it ruined the stay as it was impossible to walk outside comfortably and impossible to sit on the deck and have a mean.
The bed is far too big for the size of the room it should just be a double bed. The bathroom window needs a curtain or shade as it’s so hot in there.
Guests should have internet connection.
Too close to the rail line and noisy trains.
- Brad (8/5): Very good -
- Wendy (7/5): Great short stay, clean and comfortable. - Very clean and comfortable . Could do with little update and maybe coffee table and lamp in living area. Great location to get into York and Beverley . Little disappointed there wasn’t as much interaction with the animals as it was several years ago with the old owners . Mervin took the girls on tractor ride to feed all the animals last time several years ago and they loved that. We still had a great time and the girls 10 and 12 still had a very good time.
- Peter (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kim (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean,comfortable, and everything you needed.
Peaceful surroundings.
- Colin (8/5): Quiet retreat on a farm with good facilities - Quit location on a farm, privacy, good for kids No wifi. These days, people expect it.
- Peta (10/5): Great place.great location comfortable - The only problem was finding the driveway at night
- Heales (8/5): Very good -
- Renae (10/5): Exceptional - The accommodation was clean and comfortable
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay
- Sara (5/5): As above - Aircon wasn’t good large noisy unit in living space which you couldn’t have on while in the room. No fam or aircon in the bedroom so had to find an extension cord and use the fan from the living area which was to low so didn’t reach you while lying in bed. Bedroom was tiny and wardrobe could only fit 1 or 2 hanging items it was so small and shoved in the corner . Bathroom was tiny you could hardly move. You could sit outside with a light on as it attracted the mosquitos which were many and no lamp or candle for you to use either . Having the light in inside and sitting outside gave you no light either as the curtain didn’t open fully either . They need to do something about the aircon as it’s very hot and uncomfortable especially when 35 degrees and the lighting outside . Pool was lovely although a bit dirty .
- Maureen (9/5): it was excellent will come back . My kids really enjoyed feeding the animals - A lot of room and very quiet nill
- Lili (10/5): Exceptional -
- Riddell (8/5): Very enjoyable, will return. - Loved the quiet. Lots of birds, Blue Wrens etc and one we haven't seen before with orange breast and orange cap on head. Didn't have anything I could find that I didn't like.
- Amy (10/5): Wonderful set up for a sweet family weekend away :) - It was perfect for a little family getaway. Excellent location, beautiful surroundings and well set up for young kids. Our boys loved the animals and playing in the pool especially. It was nice and relaxing for the adults too. I loved that our bed was super comfortable as well! Check in / out process was really straight forward too. Being a city kid, I wish we had wifi / signal so we could communicate easier with my sisters family who were also staying on the property. It also would’ve meant we could’ve spent time with them once the kids were in bed but we couldn’t leave our house once the kids were asleep as our monitors wouldn’t work. Next time I’ll bring a wifi dongle!
- Angenita (8/5): Very good -
- Mikihito (9/5): It was a great experience for us! - We’d like my kids to enjoy and experience a farm life. This purpose was fulfilled by the kind owner.
And the stars in the night were very beautiful. The internet connection was not available or very weak.
- Sineka (8/5): Very good -
- Jennifer (10/5): Exceptional - The accomodation was clean and so organiser. All the instructions were very clear and overall we had an amazing stay.
- Corinne (9/5): Overall good - Been so close to the neighbours
- Darren (9/5): Superb - It is outside of the metro light pollution zone, so it was great to just sit there and watch the stars. York and Beverly are a nice drive away if you are looking for a coffee.
- Christine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Thapaliya (10/5): Exceptional -
- Allan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lok (9/5): Superb -
- Xunzhi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sue (9/5): We had a terrific stay, ideal place for a family or group of friends. - Ideal location to York, it was clean, adequately resourced, and comfortable.
- Sarah (8/5): Very good -
- Jason (7/5): Good -
- Valerie (10/5): A group of ladies had one night stay to attend a dance in the York town hall. Venue was perfect. - The accommodation was very clean and tidy, was lovely to have 2 beds in 2 of the rooms so we didn't have to share a bed (we were a group of ladies) so was great to have the extra toilet. I had a swim, I loved the animals their was a baby duck and 2 baby chickens. Overall a good place to stay. We enjoyed the whole stay wish we could have stayed longer.
- Adelene (7/5): Lovely stay, lacking activities for children - Jean and Teresa were very welcoming and accommodating to our questions and requests. Lovely break away from the city. Accommodation was well equipped, central airconditioning was great. Many different animals to see, eg sheep, goats, emu, llama, turkey, ducks, geese, chicken. Accommodation could have been cleaner, especially kitchen and utensils/cookware provided.
As the weather was very hot when we were there, too many flies flying around made it annoying to be outdoors for a long time as they kept flying and landing on our faces.
Would have been nice to have a schedule of daily activities which we could join, especially for the children.
When going for a walk around the farm, more signs would have been helpful to guide guests in the right direction.
- Matthew (8/5): Very good -
- David (5/5): Ok - Location Very poor lighting, actually damaged my car as couldn’t see
- Andrew (6/5): Pleasant -
- Shelley (7/5): Good -
- David (10/5): The best Country Retreat place - peace and quiet all was good
- Dino (8/5): Very comfortable and relaxing - The cleanliness and the items supplied in the cottage Possibly needed at foot stool
- Anonymous (9/5): Wonderful farm stays - House with full equipped kitchen and bath room, plus additional toilet, excellent. Wonderful and lovely to meet the farm animals (emu, turkey, llama, sheep's, horses, ducks, ...etc). Quiet with good sleep. Nothing.
- Rachael (9/5): Superb - Clean, tidy, quiet, and the bed was great. The activity room was available as well and it was a pleasant walk to the river. Signage on the car ports and more firewood would have been better.
- Kerrelee (9/5): Superb - What breakfast? Didnt know you provided breakfast The cold weather
