Our Fairy tale Dream Getaway
Staying in this Magnificent property was like stepping straight into the pages of a fairy-tale! The architecture and furnishings were beautiful! We loved the Opulent king master bed and spa and our kids just loved the peacock room.. Spotlessly clean, complimentary chockies and champagne added a great touch.. The grounds were beautiful and we even spotted rosellas and king parrots in the trees! Highly recommend the hosts and the property!
