Incredible place
This place is wonderful, and exactly what we needed. It's bush meets modern and absolutely perfect. Whats better than a woodfire with kangaroos in the yard each afternoon? To top it off they had a big selection of dvds, fast wifi and even toys for the kids! Absolutely brilliant stay, already looking forward to the next time!

Lots of potential
Great location and spaces. No heating in living room except wood heater, so very cold in the mornings unless fire relit. Cleaning not up to scratch, eg old food, open milk and juice left in fridge, freezer compartment full of someone else’s food, cups in cupboard dirty, rugs full of sticks and leaves, old chips and bits of choc wrappers between bed and side table. Description need updating as pizza oven and pergola are no longer in place and haven’t been for some time by the look of it. BUT it could be really good with just a bit more attention to detail.

The cleanliness and the amenities were perfect, the kids had a wonderful time enjoying the open spaces and the adults loved the cosy fire and the tranquility of Woodend.

Family break
We loved the house and the timber furniture. Our dogs had a great time in the back yard and the bush out the back. Woodend had all we wanted, farmers market, brew house and supermarket. It was only a 30 minute walk. We spent a lot of time exploring the reservoirs that were all full and overflowing making a spectacular sight at their spillways. As we left, the wood ducks came out of their tree to watch us go.
