The house is absolutely beautiful with great furniture and very stylish deco. Kitchen is great with everything you need to cook. We were 2 families and it was perfect. The only thing to be aware of is that one of the main bedrooms is in a separate section with its own front door which if you have very small children (under 5??) might be a problem. It wasn't a problem for us. Would definitely recommend the house to people who are looking for a quiet stay away from the hustle. There were also very friendly horses which the kids loved and the lovely town Dungog is only 7 min away and has everything you need in terms of restaurants and groceries. ##### Ramona T.

All aspects of the home are thoughtfully appointed, and are comfortable and relaxed, with lovely indoor and outdoor spaces to be together or alone. The gardens and surrounds and river & valley views are large and peaceful. Indoor combustion stoves and outdoor fire pit are well stocked with wood and make night-times lovely.
