The property delivers a blend of formal yet comfortable rural living, and the house is large enough to effortlessly accommodate up to 21 guests (4 on sofa beds). A swimming pool, two world-class clay tennis courts, and lovely lawns and gardens round out a perfect Southern Highlands getaway! The property has two clay courts that have been developed by John Alexander. One is a finely graded crushed basalt and the other similarly graded crushed tile. The courts are designed to play medium pace and be receptive to spin, but most of all, to be kind to the body. The controlled slide virtually eliminates the damaging jarring that occurs on hard courts and the resulting damage to knees and hips. Please note: \- Iona Park has a full-time caretaker who lives on site. The caretaker's dwelling is near the stables and has its own driveway access. The caretaker will not interact with you during your stay and will give guests full privacy - unless there are excessive guest numbers at the property and / or inappropriate behaviour or noise. \- Strictly no parties at this property – please.

Feb 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Exceptional stay at an unbelievable property We had a large group of friends staying at Iona Park for a reunion and we were all absolutely blown away. From the moment you arrive, the facilities are jaw dropping. Both the inside, especially the pool room and library, and outside (double tennis court!) were stunning. The kitchen was well stocked and plenty big enough to accommodate all of us. The check-in process was very smooth and the hosts were a pleasure to deal with. I can’t recommend this stay highly enough! ##### Adam S. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Sandra R. Jun 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location #### Great house but needs tender loving care Whilst Iona House is a nice home and we have enjoyed our stay it requires some serious attention and maintenance i.e. stove oven seal is broken. Dial to timer is not working so just start the oven is difficult.Instruction of use is required for the coffee machine. It required descaling before it could be used. This should have been carried out prior to our use.PowerPoints top left bathroom not working Billiard room half the cues are either broken or tips missing No Number marbles for Kelly pool Tennis court needs maintenance Most of the wallhangings that help give character to the house are missing Sink in main bedroom is blocked The handrail in the main bathroom has fallen off Ducted heating is hard to regulate for all the rooms ##### Sandra R.
