I will try to give a balanced appraisal of this property. Let me start by saying, if you are after a novel, rustic, bush experience, this may be the place for you. If you are after luxury, cleanliness, mod cons and manicured lawns, this is definitely not the place for you, so know what sort of experience you are after.... More

I to work in the travel industry. I am a believer that you get what you pay for, and I can say that this is NOT worth it. Myself and a group of ladies were so very excited about our weekend away, a girls weekend with no children or husbands where we could relax by the pool with a great... More

I don't like to write bad reviews for anything, working in the hospitality and travel industry I am acutely aware of a whinging and unrealistic public. So it pains me to write this, a less than complimentary review. Let me start this by first pointing out the positives. The bathroom was clean, and kids would love it as they would... More

It is also sad for an owner to have a review that is less than honest. Firstly the weekend in question was the cancelled the George Michael Concert weekend (nothing to do with me).When guests book they take away the opportunity for other guests to book and December is a big wedding month. The Guests are informed that cancellation is... More

The location is fantastic, quiet and with plenty of wildlife however the scenery around the carriages is pretty average and in need of landscaping. The spa in our royal' carriage was big and deep...
