“Great place. With the long weekend approaching we sought a getaway removed from urban sprawl. An easy 3hr+ drive from Sydney through some beautiful countryside - the place is well kept, secluded and has all the creature comforts you could need for a few days stay. We're a fan and we'll be back. ”- Doug
