Koalas spotted right outside as well at Sweeney Reserve and the sound of birds and all their various calls brings you back to nature. Great place to chill and kid was entertained with the puzzles and Jenga too.

• Silvana (9/5): -
• Diane (10/5): Perfect position for everything we wanted to do - It was exactly as described; quiet with an outlook over a reserve Just a minor thing. It said breakfast supplied, it should read breakfast ingredients supplied. You need to make your own. Very picky I know, but a subtle difference.

Leaving - we would have loved to stay longer!
• Linda (10/5): Peaceful - It was very quiet, clean and very well presented. Well just one complaint the little step from bedroom to the bathroom, in the middle of the night stubbed my foot cut open my toe it’s very bruised. It was a little hard to walk at the wedding. But still a beautiful unit
