Wondeful family getaway

The house was spacious and comfortable. Indoor pool was definitely the highlight because we didn't have to worry about weather. The location was excellent about a 10 min drive from Lithgow. Communication was excellent from the host, I had a question and he got back to me straight away. Added bonus we got to see quite a few a kangaroos in the back. Would highly recommended for a group. I look forward to going there again.

Awesome Home

We had a fantastic five day stay with 7 family members. The house design was spread out with two lounge areas and it was very spacious and clean. The swimming pool keep us all entertained and the many board games that are also provided. The kids enjoyed toasting marshmallows on the bonfire. The host allowed us to have late checkout which was kind of him and was very responsive when needed. Overall, the property was great and we’ll definitely we back again.

Excellent, very recommendable

Photos didn't do any justice for this place. My husband and our 2 toddlers enjoyed our stay at this place. It was a short family trip but we wish we could have stayed longer. We didn't even got out of the house, we enjoyed the place especially the pool. Shanthan was so prompt in answering our messages, we also had some welcome goodies which was very sweet. We'll surely be back to bring the in-laws.

Wonderful winter stay!

We had a fabulous stay at this property. Great communication and seem less check in process. Perfect for a group of different families. Kitchen could do with a deep clean in cupboards and some more utensils such as measuring cups and serving trays. A drier for the clothes would also be great for winter. Overall we highly recommend and hope to stay again.

Weekend away

We stayed at Clarance homestead over the weekend and had an amazing experience. The house is spacious and well looked after. The host was responsive and provided us with everything we needed. The house is great for two families as it has bedrooms at opposite ends of the house which means as well as staying together you could still have your own privacy. We stayed with family friends and it was the perfect size.
