A Cosy Country Retreat

5 out of 5 average rating, 18 reviews1 month ago

A lovely, peaceful little stay! Perfect little home away from home while we were traveling. The owner was kind enough to let our dog have a run in the paddock which was wonderful. And the owner's two dogs, Blue and Rocket were absolute sweeties. Will definitely stay again if we are passing through!

Rabbiter's Retreat Apartment

4.83 out of 5 average rating, 473 reviews5 days ago

It’s a small space but functional if you are mostly using as a base to sleep. There’s a little private sitting area next to the room for a morning tea but we had bad weather and couldn’t use it. The bed is really comfy though. We are getting older and soft beds are painful for our backs but this place had a nice firm bed.

These apartments were much more than we expected! It would have to be the best place I have ever booked on AirBNB. The location is very close to the main strip. Tiff in reception is super friendly, accomodating and very helpful with recommendations of restaurants and activities. This is a terrifically run business!

We had a great night's stay. very clean & comfortable studio unit. The property is rural but easy to find on GPS and not far from SH1. Gerard & Trish have created a wonderful garden, including native bush, which Gerard showed us around. Nice continental breakfast was also provided, with some of their own produce. Even a couple of Easter eggs as we were there Easter Sunday. Highly recommend.
