"Beautifully presented and everything you need for a home away from home, quite and peaceful and very tranquil"

"We absolutely loved our stay at this property and hope to be back for another stay soon.Paula and Mervyn are wonderful people and excellent hosts. Paula was easy to communicate with prior to arrival and both Paula and Mervyn were friendly and happy to chat and show us around the farm.The cabin is lovely, and built from scratch by Mervyn. It is eco friendly and very, very comfortable. The bed was extremely comfortable and set looking out of floor to ceiling windows and sliding doors so you wake up to the most incredible view. The cabin is small but perfect for 2 people and the deck is sheltered, so even in the middle of winter we spent quite a bit of time on the deck taking in the fresh air and the quiet. We did not miss having a tv or wifi, although we found reception was good in most places.Breakfast was included and on arrival we were given a bag with ingredients for a cooked breakfast the next day and an invitation to have breakfast on the patio the day after. We weren’t sure about imposing for breakfast on Sunday morning until we met Paula and Mervyn and then we were looking forward to spending more time with them and finding out their story to becoming farmers and b and b hosts. The breakfast on the balcony is not to be missed. Paula’s skills in the kitchen are undeniable and Mervyn makes a good cuppa. Afterwards, we were lucky enough to be taken for a farm tour and to meet the cows and the alpacas, all of whom are friendly and curious, if not a bit shy. "

"We loved our three nights at the Tree House. Rain or sun, you are comfortably tucked away in your eyrie, surrounded by Tuarts, with glimpses of Lake Preston and the sounds of the waves on the beach. Great walks at many places nearby including Martins Tank Lake to Lake Pollard. Crooked Carrot is always fun. The house has everything anyone would need. Highly recommended. "

"5 friends,enjoying a weekend away,what a beautiful place to stay,we have been doing this for over 30 years,and this is by far the best place we have stayed in.Attention to detail,very impressed.You have to go and see for yourself."

"We are a group of 10 ladies 60plus. Great venue. Stairs abit of a challenge but otherwise fantastic place."

"Highly recommend, if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle this is the place to stay, hidden gem!"

"Very comfortable house with everything you could need and more. Easy walk to the beach. Would definitely stay again. "

"Very spacious house adjacent to caravan park and on the estuary's edge. Had a few issues but the property manager and staff were very receptive to a few suggestions we offered. Have booked again"

"The property was so much better than I expected so clean and close to beach everything we needed even had a cubby house and scooters for children "
