Independent in Stratford from AU$161

"I stayed with my parents and my daughters and we had a lovely time. The property was fabulous and peaceful, with a very well equipped kitchen & was well looked after, clean & warm. Beds were comfy and there was plenty of space. Clyde & Casey were very cute and the fire pit outside was a highlight for the kids. Elsa was a very helpful host & we would happily stay again. "

"Beautiful property in a beautiful location.Plenty of firewood to warm us inside and outside by the generous firepit. Well stocked kitchen with everything needed to cook for all 8 adults.We enjoyed our stay tremendously"

"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!"

"Visually very appealing. "

"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 "

"Very accommodating staff. At this stage I've had to stay 2 more nights than anticipated due to flooding in the area. Room is clean Bathroom is good. Food is absolutely delicious. Well done to all involved"

"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 had an amazing three-day glamping trip that was the perfect mix of comfort, nature, and fun! The tents were beautifully set up with lovely Lillypond views and had everything we needed — a great blend of value and luxury.Our kids had an unforgettable time, especially with Ollie, the lovely, kid-friendly dog who loved chasing after the ball. Kids also enjoyed the indoor games, pool table (used in our own unique way!), visiting farm animals, and just being together outdoors. Big thanks to our wonderful hosts, Simon and Kelli, who made sure everything was perfect and took such great care of us. We even had a little adventure on the way home with rain, overflowing creeks, and tree branches — but it only added to the memories.Highly recommend this place for families or groups of friends looking for a relaxing, fun-filled, and memorable glamping experience. Can’t wait to come back again!"
