Hot Day
On an extremely hot day the lower part of the property was extremely pleasurable. The upper bedroom not so much.

Country paradise with cute neighbours
Jan's place is charming, both inside the property and out, and came complete with nearby kangaroos which grazed outside the kitchen and living rooom window both mornings. The house is cosy and comfortable with a log fire and lovely modern bathroom shared between both bedrooms. Jan was a considerate host and we enjoyed meeting her for a quick chat just before checking out. A peaceful, warm and very relaxing stay in a beautiful part of the state.

We booked this wonderful home to celebrate my father's bday. Jan was kind enough to leave some wine and chocolates for us to help celebrate. The place was a lovely escape from the city with kangaroos in the backyard! Thanks again Jan :)
