"We absolutely loved our stay at this friendly and beautiful farmstay near Gloucester! From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and at ease. The atmosphere was wonderfully relaxed,no strict rules, just freedom to enjoy the space, which made it feel like a true home away from home.The accommodation was incredibly comfortable and cosy. Whether it was curling up with a book by the fireplace or soaking in the peaceful rural views, every moment was calming and enjoyable.One of the best parts? It’s perfect for pets and families! Our dog had the time of his life running around freely and exploring the open spaces. It’s rare to find a place this welcoming to both humans and furry friends alike.If you're looking for a stress-free, family-friendly getaway where you can truly unwind, breathe in fresh country air, and enjoy the simple pleasures of life, this is the place. We’re already planning our next visit. Highly recommend!"
"Sure! Here's a shorter version of the review:---A Secret Place to Slow Down lives up to its name, quiet, cozy, and beautifully set in nature. The space was spotless, thoughtfully decorated, and incredibly relaxing. Close enough to Gloucester’s attractions but tucked away enough to truly unplug. The hosts were kind and attentive. A true hidden gem, we can’t wait to return!"
"Fantastic accommodation within a short drive of Gloucester. Set on the banks of the river you feel like you are miles from anywhere. Cottage is well appointed and a thoroughly enjoyable place to stay. Would highly recommend this property "
Be amongst nature in the 1890s farmhouse - a time you will never forget.
10/10 Excellent
"Unfortunately for us we stayed whilst a severe weather event impacted the entire mid north coast of NSW so our hiking and mountain biking plans weren’t able to be met. The property is as presented and very comfortable. Our hosts were also very communicative and generous in allowing us to stay longer, should we have needed to, due to the significant flooding in the area. Very much appreciated. "
Eco friendly home just minutes from town with plenty of space to relax
8/10 Good
"Large well appointed rambling house in a very quiet location just outside Gloucester. Good wildlife interaction with lots of birds, microbats, horse grazing in paddock next door and a menagerie running around in a paddock across the road."
"We were on a motorcycle trip and were pretty wet and dirty! These rooms were perfect for our group and for the cost, we were happy.
Hot showers and comfy beds were all we required. You are walking distance to everything in Gloucester from these rooms."
"It was great being so close to the little stream that runs past tiny house. We were fortunate to be there during quite a rainy period and the stream turned into a gushing river which was music to my ears while falling asleep with the door open. The cabin is cute and very tidy with thoughtful local insights and books and games to keep us occupied. "
