“Excellent. The cottages are tastefully decorated and with large windows to take in the wonderful views to the lake and surrounds. For a peaceful, private stay, it was outstanding.”

Carol Bellis, April 2008

“Very beautiful and blissfully quiet. I loved everything and will be back! Definitely feel revitalised and only wish I had booked longer. Will be bringing others back when returning such as kids and family. Recommend it to anyone!”

Grayson Cherry April 2008

“What a wonderful place. It is always risky to book something on the basis of a website, but this fully lived up to my expectations – so peaceful and natural. I will be recommending this to everyone back in the UK!”

Rhiannon Turner, March 2008

“We thoroughly enjoyed using the handmade soaps and drinking the organic coffee. Lovely! The isolation of each cottage and peacefulness, just added to the enjoyment. Perfect!”

Russell Family, January 2008

“A perfect environment to relax and unwind. Alice’s Garden cottage design worked so well – light space and windows to bring the garden and natural environment inside. Thank you for preserving the natural environment.”

Mike Dugdale, October 2007

“I think the true sign of a good time, is when you are sad to go home. Your facilities are first class. Your help and friendly nature a true joy. Your home is a special place that each day out on the water would give you something new. Keep up the good work. You live in your own piece of Australian paradise.”

Nigel & Erin Sanderson, September 2007

“Loved the modern décor and style of the pavilion. The views from every room to the lake and the trees superb. Everything of a high quality, down to the glassware and cutlery. This is an excellent touch. We loved this place. We can see where you got your inspiration from. Thank you for sharing.”

Mark and Debbie Evans, July 2007

“Absolutely wonderful. Australia’s version of “On Golden Pond”

Janet Allaway July 2007

“Excellent. Extremely comfortable, well appointed. Food hampers and tapas platter generous and lovely. Perfect surroundings.”

Alison and David Crocker, May 2007

“Fantastic – 5 stars! What more can be said when you are staying in an incredible environment surrounded by mother nature and privacy.”

John & Joyce Caddy, March 2007

“We loved our stay in Cormorant Cottage – it has been a first class facility and safe for our toddler. The situation of these cottages is magical – very special indeed. PS We will back! We will also be highly recommending to friends and family”

Sarah Bright, NZ, November 2006.

“I arrived stressed. Unable to sleep and now leave a “new person”. This place is magic; a place of renewal and healing. Thank you, Christine – it was fabulous and Harry your resident poet, amazing.”

Bernice & Gary Mathisen, January 2007

“Hello mine hosts, A very BIG thank you for my family’s “Christmas in July” at your wonderfully relaxing hide-a-way! It was great to hear my over-worked children saying how serene they felt even after the first night. How could they have felt otherwise? Thank you again and all the best for the future.”
