This is a lovely property my room overlooking the garden and the main historic house was delightful, a very good quality self service breakfast and also a delightful and also a delicious range of cakes and biscuits for morning or afternoon tea island out. Over two days we never saw any staff or management, While this has little impact on our stay it was the only negative for us.

It’s all self checkin & self service for breakfast. Never saw a staff member. It was excellent 2 day stay. However disappointing that the room wasn’t serviced on 2nd day.

Place was full of character with complimentary food, John kindly let us leave our luggage there while we went hiking after checkout and before our train back to Sydney. Room was spotless with fresh flowers when we arrived.
