Family Festival Getaway
House was very spacious which suited our family. Especially the entertainment room. Was a bit disappointed that the outside area was not well maintained. Would recommend the property when you are looking for somewhere to stay.

Comfortable house in a quiet rural location
The house was very comfortable for our group of seven adults. Great fireplace which kept the whole house warm. Good kitchen facilities. Comfy beds. However, the external spa was not safe to use. Looked like it had never been cleaned. It smelled bad and was unsafe to use. Apart from that, everything was good

Thanks Barry, the spa was cleaned and chlorine added after the previous guests, but something must have triggered it. Water has been replaced and balanced now.

Ladies hiking trip
Had a lovely stay. We will definitely be back. Great place for a group setting. Enjoyed the fact hiking was only 30 min easy drive away and that we could come home to a fire, electric blankets, comfy beds and hot showers. The home caters for a large group well. The home in itself is very tired and in need of some love but was comfortable. The only disappointment was the spa as we were looking for a good soak after hiking all day. It would not heat and kept coming up with an error. We had instructions to reset but it just wouldn’t. All in all thank you Bob for your great communication. The notes were extremely helpful and we all had a great long weekend away in a great location.

Great house with so much potential
Overall we enjoyed our stay... But at the risk of sounding negative, there were quite a few things wrong with this place that just really unsettled us - and a rotten half decayed possum at the back door hanging form one of the trees was what welcomed us to this property. When the owner was notified, he was quick to get someone out, but the cleaner showed up with a feral attitude, and instead of removing the rotton possum from the property, put it in the large skip bin adjacent to the shed- so when we removed our luggage on check out - imagine our welcoming scent when we tried to deposit the garbage. The house itself was warm and cosy, but rather dark as no sunlight was able to get into the house. It would also not hurt to get a lick of paint on the inside. The pool was rank and not fit to swim in, but on the other hand, the spa and sauna were very nice. They also had a fridge in the media room that after the electricians had to be called as the power kept tripping, was found to be faulty. After 2 days the power was fixed and we attempted to watch a movie in the media room, but the previous tenants had removed some cables and we were unable to use it. At almost $500 a night, we're underwhelmed - we would have at least accepted an apology - but we didn't get anything back when reported to the owner on check-out. Not going to return.

I'm sorry, there was a dead possum in a tree on a rural property, and when i was advised i had somebody out same day to remove it. We also had an electrical fault, and again, same day the electrician came out and fixed it. After that they could not get the home theater working so i drove to Stanthorpe to fix it, only to find it worked fine as soon as I turned the power on. Late in teh stay they let their kids purchase movies on the Amazon account I leave logged on for them to use. No offer to pay for what they purchased or even an apology. Overall, I am very happy with John's decsion not to return.

Big house in heart of wine country
Fourth stay at this property. It’s a big house with good facilities. Central to Stanthorpe and wineries but just out of town enough to feel like you’re in the country. Love the big TV and games room.

Perfect country getaway
This house truly has it all - fully equipped inside and out. Very comfortable, perfect for a group of friends or a large family. Perfect location - close to wineries and all that Stanthorpe has to offer. Bob was very accommodating and very easy to deal with. Thank you Bob - you’re house is an absolute gem. We will be back!

Ssshhhh, don't tell everybody!!
Fourth time I've stayed at this property. Whilst being an older, rough around the edges type of place you can not want for anything. Just a great place to take a great bunch of mates for a great time. I will be very unhappy when the owner moves back in full time as the surrounding areas are just delightful to visit.

Fantastic
It was a great place to stay for 4 retired couples. Close to town and all that the Granite Belt has to offer, wineries, chesses, etc. Well set up for our own cooking and just relaxing each evening. Lovely peaceful setting. Could have done with a mop being supplied to clean up water on the floor usually caused by emptying the dishwasher (it accumulates on the bottom of cups and glasses)

After my 4th stay I still love this house and what it has to offer.
Another amazing weekend. Probably don't want to talk it up too much as I'm finding it harder and harder to book each year lol. And if any assistance is needed Bob is so easy to deal with and is quick to reply to solve any problems.

Country house great, road not so good.
House was comfortable and clean. Although the house needs a bit of maintenance. Unfortunately the road from main road to house was very tough and definitely needs an overhaul. As all three vehicles were not 4x4s getting in and out of the property was very, very slow going. The road had some deep holes. I would not recommend this property to my friends until the road was improved.

Thanks Genevieve, the driveway suffered water erosion damage in the recent floods and a road building firm has been engaged to fix it. It will be perfect shortly. Glad the rest of your stay was good. Bob

Lovely quiet location, lots of wildlife, fantastic pool
Due to the unexpected extreme heat we lived mainly in the lounge/dining room and the pool. No bedrooms air conditioned only stand fans . Lovely big kitchen with everything possible supplied. Unable to use the media and pool table room as the conditioners were not working. Dirt track from road to property very uneven surface not great for a normal car.

Don't tell everyone but this place is GREAT!!!
The house was fantastic, plenty of room for everyone. While we enjoyed a glass a win, the kids enjoyed playing tennis all day. The Media room was great, watching the NRL State of Origin on the big screen was just like being at the game. The only issue we had was the Spa, was not heating up properly but this was very minor. We will definitely be going back , this is an absolute jewel for Stanthorpe, but don't tell everyone

Amazing house!
Our group of 3 couples and 2 babies stayed here for a long weekend this May. The house was better than described! So much space, the kitchen was very well equipped and the other facilities were all great. We especially enjoyed the media and games room - just like a private cinema! The tennis court was also a hit. We will happily return here on our next Stanthorpe holiday!

We loved this house, it was so much more than the description. Awesome for kids and although it was freezing in Stanthorpe, the house was well equipped and we were WARM. Thankyou Bob, you were really accommodating and helpful, we will be back.
