Pictures do not do this places views justice! Fabulous location, place and host..
Great week spent in gorgeous countryside and serenity. Only sounds you hear are the cows, sheep, birds and at night, the crackling of the fire whilst stargazing. The house was spacious and clean and warm with comfy beds and a well appointed kitchen. And Mike the host couldn't be more helpful or friendly. The near town of Crookwell was lovely and the bakery is definitely worth a visit! Its just the perfect, hassle free place to get away from it all.

Disappointing
Lovely rural setting but the house was untidy and unclean in some areas in the kitchen with way too much of the owner's possessions around. The hotwater in the ensuite didn't work. We received advice: no linen. All the doonas and pillows had been stowed away; fortunately, we had our own doona but it was unclear which ones we should have used; two of the pillow were damp. Just one bath towel was supplied and there was no key to lock the door. The farm gate was open when we arrived. We left after night 2 of the 3 night booking.

Great property, great host
Mike is a wonderful host, very generous with his time and very willing to offer his thoughts on maximizing your stay at his farm. Located within 15mins from Crookwell town, 20mins from Grabben Gullen creek and about 40mins from Goulburn. Looking forward to the returning back.

Great place for a relaxing weekend
If you want a quiet weekend away then look no further. Chilly outside and warm as toast inside.Great views of the countryside and a host who absolutely went out of his way to make us feel at home. The kids loved the cows and kangaroos and the adults loved the serenity and the chance to sit back near the fire and enjoy a glass of wine. The house is well appointed with everything you need for a great getaway. Happy to recommend and we will be back.
