Just the most beautiful property. The views were spectacular. The studio was perfect. Short walk into town. The kangaroos (with Joey) right under the balcony. Super friendly and helpful hosts. Couldn't have been more perfect. Couldn't recommend it highly enough.

It was lovely accommodation. The perfect setting for a romantic getaway, very private with a cosy log fire. An easy walk to explore the beautiful town of Bright & surrounds. Cooking facilities were a little modest but on request we were promptly supplied with a portable gas stove and pan. Fresh ground coffee & cafetière was a nice touch. We would definitely recommend & stay here again!

Amazing property among the bush - quiet enough to feel secluded yet close to everything in Bright. Wildlife make this property special - so many 'roos, kookaburra's and maggies. Magical stay.
