Guest Reviews

• Pike (10/5): -
• Jack (10/5): - We loved everything! Fireplace, scenery, horses, and great hosts. The building gave us privacy and it was clean and had everything we needed. Nice big tv in the living room and you could see the stars when you went outside. 10/10 stay!
• Amanda (10/5): - Supplies provided. Was greeted given the lay of the land, how to reach out if needed, then left alone. I have back issues so have a really plush.bed at home. Softer larger bed would have been good. Maybe instructions for lighting fire keeping fire going, for fireplace virgin. mine started but didn't take.
• Gabrielle (10/5): Relaxing getaway for a couple - Everything !! It was very clean, modern, comfortable . The owners were lovely and so were their dogs
• Brent (10/5): -

• Teena and Stuart (10/5): Clean thoughtfully welcoming beautiful comfortable - The property is on a farm It’s very private It’s so beautiful and quite Not one thing It’s an outstanding place to stay
• jarrod (10/5): Perfect stay. We will be booking again . - Everything - our favorite stay of our 2 week driving holiday . The owners have created such a beautiful , well appointed accomadation. Nothing at all. Everything we could have needing was covered .
• Joao Nuno (10/5): Amazing place to spend a night or two while getting to know Orange. We loved it! - This is exactley what it says in the name. The perfect romantic getaway. The host, Karen, guided us well to the property, greeted us to hand over the key, and left a few welcoming niceties in the house. You'll be surrounded by a surprising gathering of machines, including a tram carriege from Melbourne and a few rusted old trucks and also by the best countryside landscape with fields, horses and cows. The house is perfectly equiped with everything you could ask for and very comfortable. We loved it! Although overall clean, some spots could be better. Location is isolated from town, but that's sort of the point...
• harley (10/5): - Absolutely wonderful separate granny flat, no expense spared on the property. Absolute delight to have fresh eggs, chocolate muffins and bread. The place was spotless and was on a large property with horses. Thanks for a great stay. The flat was a little to close to the house, but still felt very private, was separate and had screening up, didnt see the host so was private still.
• BHARATSINH RAMSINH (10/5): - Excellent location
• Robert (10/5): I would recommend The Shady Rest to all, definitely a 10/10. - The property was definitely a 10/10 in all aspects. It is a credit to Karen and George who were the perfect hosts. From being greeted on arrival, to the fresh muffins, banana bread, fresh eggs, Turkish bread supplied in the kitchen, everything was perfect. The facilities are all excellent, the place is so peaceful and relaxing, our 3 nights there were very memorable. A perfect location to explore all that Orange has to offer. A big thank you to Karen and George for being the perfect hosts. We will be back. There was nothing we didn’t like about the Shady Rest.

• Eloise (10/5): - Loved the baked goods and location. It was so quiet and beautiful Place was gorgeous Nil
• Gregor (10/5): Excellent romantic retreat, everything was ideal and it was a perfect place to stay - The property was separately detached from the main host property and was very romantic, the rooms were laid out well and functional. The bedroom was romantic and had distant mountain views from the side window. The bedroom mattress was very comfortable. The kitchen had everything you needed and thoughtful touches from the hosts who provided eggs, butter and muffins on arrival plus a coffee machine was a bonus. The bathroom / bath was luxurious. Loved the peace and serenity of the property and grounds, and feeding the horses carrots from the vegetable garden connected you with nature and the farm vibe. All up the perfect romantic getaway. There was nothing that I didn't like

• MEILING (10/5): -

Lovely warm, deep bath and roaring log fire, which Karen helpfully lit for us! Extra treats provided made us feel ultra welcome: home made brownies on the counter, packets of chips and chocolate on the table fruit and eggs in the fridge Nothing.
• Julie (10/5): Excellent farm stay.Eggs ,focaccia ,fruit and muffins supplied by Karen. -
• Sagun (10/5): Exceptional -
• Anurag (10/5): Great escape - All the extras and personal care heating needs improvement
• Yasin (10/5): Exceptional - Karen is an amazing host and the high rating for this place is there for a reason. The accommodation was overly equipped with necessities and snacks galore. Showing up with various groceries for the weekend stay felt almost embarassing as I walked into a kitchen equipped with all the most necessary ingredients. There were snacks available, and even local delights like a muffin that was one of the most delicious I have ever had. The kitchen equipment was great as well, lots of high quality utensils and appliances. Overall the place is made with no expense spared. The lighting is beautiful and very versatile. There are two huge TVs that work perfectly with hanging HDMI chords so you don't even have to spend time setting up. The fireplace also worked a treat. We visited during sub zero temperatures and a simple fire heated the place up far hotter than we even wanted. Now for the outdoors. The location is good. There is a short walk before you overlook a huge valley that can be quite pretty at sunset. There were also cows and sheep and horses you could feed which was a tonne of fun. There are like three different outdoor areas available for you to use as well, with a very well built fireplace in a nice open area. There is plenty of firewood and kindling and firestarters available. Again, this place is well equipped. The scenery immediately outside is quite nice. There is a windmill just outside the stay and some rustic old trucks that are quite cool to take photos with.
• Laura (10/5): Exceptional -
• Harry (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sue (10/5): Exceptional - We loved our stay here - it was absolutely the perfect farm-esque getaway from the city. The property had a fully renovated kitchen and bathroom (with a rain shower head!) as well as the comfiest bedroom! Karen was the perfect host. She greeted us upon arrival as well as Emma and Frank (her furry little companions) and showed us around the place. She had even left out muffins and bread with eggs and milk in the fridge for our breakfast! She also let us know that there were carrots in the garden out back that we could pick to feed the horse in the yard. To go well above and beyond the role of a host, she even lent us parkas and jackets because we were underprepared for the chilly Orange evenings. The property was very cozy and lovingly furnished with thought placed in both functionality and aesthetics - for instance, a fully working kitchen with everything you'd need to cook anything.We really loved our experience here and our only complaint would be that we wish we had booked in another night.
• Mandy (10/5): Perfectly - The little extras of home made muffins, farm tray eggs and Turkish toast to cook for breakfast.
• Anne-marie (10/5): A joy to stay in fresh and new accommodation with lovely furnishings. Lovely fresh fruit, bread and eggs provided. - Beautiful quality accommodation
• Bruce (10/5): This is a beautiful property set on a farm just a 15 minute drive from Orange. - This is a beautiful property set on a farm just a 15 minute drive from Orange. The accommodation is very comfortable and the kitchen well appointed. Feels luxurious! A peaceful setting surrounded by sheep, horses, kangaroos, and rustic windmill. The host had left us freshly baked muffins and bread which was greatly appreciated.
• Andrew (9/5): Excellent condition, Warm hospitality - A piece of modern heaven in an outback country setting. A perfectly organised home away from home. Nothing we actually "didn't like". Enjoyed absolutely everything. Just thought having a BBQ outside would've enhanced the experience even further.
• Bruce (10/5): Very enjoyable and comfortable. Great hosts and so peaceful. The accomodation was lovely. -
• Heather (10/5): Exceptional -

• Edmund (10/5): Beautiful place..full kitchen..designer bathroom..entertaining pups no charge.A peacful quiet place - All excellent..110% attention to detail down to the beautiful banana cake our host had just baked. Nothing..
• Mark (9/5): Superb -
• Michelle (10/5): We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Shady Rest - Karen goes above and beyond to provide an exceptional "home away from home" for her guests. Everything is thought of to make someone's stay a pleasure. We enjoyed the visits from their two little dogs on several occasions. Being animal people, it was nice to have them "pop in". We loved the location of the property out in the country. It was very handy to family we were visiting. Overall, 10/10. For me I found the bed a little uncomfortable but each to their own preference. My husband thought it was fine :)
• Martin (10/5): It was fantastic - A great place to stay and relax and really lovely hosts. We would have liked to stay longer than three days but unfortunately could not. There was nothing that I didn't like
• Tammy (8/5): Very good -
• Martin (10/5): Simply amazing! - Simply amazing! Don't look any further! Karen's place is one of the best places I've stayed at. Yummy brekky and eggs were provided, it smelled amazing and the location and views are stunning!
• Tammy (9/5): Beautiful accommodation. Beautiful location. Beautiful hosts - The property was beautiful Accomodation was very close to hosts house. Though the host were absolutely lovely people, and they left us alone. It was a lot less private than we thought it would be.
• Janelle (10/5): Just perfect in so many ways - It was clean, beautifully decorated, homely and had everything you could need away from home. The location was beautiful and not far out of Orange. The hosts were very friendly and will go above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. We will be back
• Vincent (10/5): Loved it! - We liked the location, the hosts, the decor the cleanliness, the extras provided (like the wonderful cake!) The bed is too hard, a matress topper woukd be a good idea.
• Fletcher (10/5): Thank you for a wonderful stay 10/10 - Everything! The place was so neat and tidy! We had brownies on arrival. The host is lovely. Such a beautiful house and location! Loved everything about it. 100/10! Do yourself a favour and book!

• Jennifer (10/5): All the little touches made all the big difference to the quality of our stay. - Everything was perfect! Nothing
• Kath (10/5): Relaxing in style. - Beautiful accommodations, with everything you could possibly need at hand. Lovely fresh banana bread on arrival , and loads of basic provisions in case of late arrival. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful. Close to all the places we wanted to visit while in the area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, just wish we were able to stay longer.
• Amanda (9/5): A Very Luxurious and Comfortable Stay - Karen is a warm host and has considered your every need. Everything is immaculate and of a high standard. The dream bathroom with the large bath and rainfall shower, included soft lighting and a heated towel rack. Towels were thick and huge. The bed linen is beautiful and the bed most comfortable. We arrived to a friendly greeting, a huge home made loaf of banana bread, a basket of treats and eggs, juice, fruit and toast for breakfast. We enjoyed a lovely fire with a glass of red, in the lovely big wine glasses and it was so easy to log in and watch a movie on our streaming channels. We truly felt spoilt. This is a 10/10 property, however for us, we would preferred to have been further from the main house, overlooking the view. There is a privacy screen between you and the main house, yet it is quite visible. It will be better when the shrubs grow and give more coverage. This is probably not an issue for many people. We just like to look out at a view, rather than another building.
• Jade (10/5): Exceptional - The place was absolutely amazing with a very clean set up amazing. The location is perfect being so close to Orange without being right in the middle. We had an amazing stay and our hosts were wonderful!
• Katie (10/5): Beautiful property. We will be back again! - The property was beautiful, and the hosts were lovely. There were also beautiful touches, like snacks and baked goods left for us on arrival. We couldn't fault anything about our stay
• Russell (10/5): Exceptional - Location was very peaceful and amazing views of the country side. The amenities were excellent, enough provisions for breakfast and some snacks as well.
• Hannah (10/5): Perfect little getaway! - Gorgeous welcome from Karen , Frank & Emma ( 2 little pooches ) it has everything that you need as Karen has thought of everything! Great comforts with a bath , fire & Netflix , not far from the wineries & beautiful setting with the horses as an extra bonus! Would 100% recommend & go again!

A perfect 10 out of 10 experience! Bonus points for the charming horse on the farm, and the host even provided extra carrots for a delightful feeding experience. Highly recommended!

• Lindy (9/5): A work trip which felt like a mini get-away in a beautiful location. Lovely cottage with everything! - The breakfast provided was fantastic. Loved the homemade granola. Loved having a relaxing bath after a day's work and wandering around the property to talk to the horses. The hosts were friendly and accommodating. Available if required but gave privacy. Very convenient mid-way location to access all the main towns of the central west. Minutes to Orange and handy to many places. Comfortable, clean and well appointed. Absolutely nothing!
