Reviews
Rosa from Australia (9/10)
Such a lovely garden and comfortable space to spend a weekend and only minutes from the Botanical Gardens and Olinda township. Loved my stay there!
Dylan from Australia (9/10)
Clint from Australia (9/10)
It was away from the main road and nestled among the trees. The bed was comfortable, and the fire was cozy. But being in the mountains was cold, so the reverse-cycle air conditioning helped when needed.
Ray from Australia (8/10)
Nichola from Australia (9/10)
The room was beautiful, high ceilings, lots of wood paneling/stone work, spa bath and a real fire.
The heating was on when we arrived so was nice and cosy. We liked that there was basic cooking facilities so could make breakfasts/ lunches ourself. We had an amazing weekend and even managed to spot a wombat on one of our walks.Blair from Australia (9/10)
