It was a lovely property with great, welcoming hosts. Perfect for a few days to get away from civilization and experience a small taste of the real Australia. Cosy, comfortable living quarters on a beautiful, riverside property.

Great location
It was great being so close to the little stream that runs past tiny house. We were fortunate to be there during quite a rainy period and the stream turned into a gushing river which was music to my ears while falling asleep with the door open. The cabin is cute and very tidy with thoughtful local insights and books and games to keep us occupied.
