Across the road from Blackburn's beautiful Furness Park, with a creek flowing through it - you will find 'Garden Dreams' - a secluded guest house at the back of the main residence - with separate entrance and gate. 15 min walk to Blackburn train station. If you love nature, you'll love the sounds of the frogs at night in the pond outside of your window. But you may also come across - ducks, kookaburras and even the odd tawny frogmouth! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchenette -

Jan 2, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Very quiet suburb & garden setting which was great for the two of us and dog, who had access to the back garden. Clean & tidy with everything we needed. Park opposite for dog walking was a bonus. Good communication with host. ##### Gill F.
