Accessible to everywhere you need to visit.

Comfortable, spacious and welcoming. So quiet as well. Pantry was stocked with some lovely essentials. Cooked an oven baked pumpkin risotto, and a roast chicken. Coffee and tea selection was a nice addition, as was the eggs and bread. Washed a small load of clothes while we were there too. Happy that there was an Enjo wet mop there, good work.

Why they chose this property

From the 1940's dinner set to the black and white photo album with original pictures of Paris in the 1950's, to siting on the front verandah surrounded by the fresh sweet smell of the Princess Da Monaco roses. Or relax on the contemporary extended lounge overlooking the outdoor patio and garden. Each room is fitted with memorabilia from 1940 to contemporary artworks from award winning Australian artists. With the amazing bathroom having a tub big enough for two to move and the rain head shower will make you feel amazing. Every room and every entertaining area will delight your senses. With 2 Queen size luxurious beds looking out to the front garden, white picket fence and the old Jacaranda tree. Every view is beautiful.
