A lovely getaway from Sydney (in close proximity) that was so good we thought we were hours from civilisation. Had everything we needed for a last minute weekender and the scenery, relaxing surrounds and active fishing made the whole stay leaving us wanting another visit!

Naturally beautiful property and location. Lovely for us and our dog to have plenty of swims. The guesthouse was very comfortable and had all the facilities and kitchen equipment we needed. Rod the host was friendly and helpful, pointed us in the right direction and then left us to it - perfect!

All was as described. We all loved the quiet and seclusion for a couple of days - we needed some space. Also lots of space so the dog loved it too. Fishing is tough though if u terrible at it (like me). I really liked it, but I do note its not high end fancy.
