Extended Family Stay

All the family came 96 years to 4 months old and we all had a great time. All the activities were well used and appreciated. The weather was perfect and the views were awesome. The location was wonderful for shopping and plenty of great cafe's in the area. The Retreat exceeded our expectations. Well done Brigid.

Beautiful Property with amazing Facilities

We've stayed here a couple of times and each time it has been an absolute treat. The property is easily large enough for our group of 10, and the Tennis court and pool are a rare treat to have all to ourselves. I highly recommend this property to anyone in a large group looking to take it easy.

Exceptional holiday retreat

We would stay here again in a heartbeat! This is a well maintained, beautifully presented holiday home. Equipped with an outdoor kitchen and multiple outdoor living areas it was the perfect set up for our early family Christmas. We loved the pool, tennis courts, ping pong and darts and all the necessary sporting equipment was provided. Inside the house was spacious and beautifully furnished.

Fantastic family holiday

Our stay in the glass house mountains was a perfect location for three generations of family to come together, relax, explore and catch-up. The property is immaculately kept and there were so many little touches that enhanced our stay. Thank you.

Perfect relaxing weekend!

As a group of work friends, we go on a yearly girls trip. This year we decided to try the sunny coast and we are already planning on our return next year! Brigid was such a great host, the house is absolutely beautiful and we really enjoyed being able to relax while also enjoying the pool & tennis court!

Great place to stay when visiting the Australia Zoo

This may be the best VRBO we have ever stayed. With a pool, tennis courts, basketball hoop, ping pong table, out door grilling, fire pit - there’s plenty of activities for everyone. High end appliances, great layout, kitchen well stocked, multiple living areas for everyone to spread out, large lot to explore. Terrific and responsive host. They went above and beyond ensuring families will be comfortable staying here. You will not be disappointed with this property!

A perfect house for a family getaway

We were a family group celebrating my 60th birthday together. The house was spotless and so well equiped with everything we needed to make the weekend memorable. I feel that the photos do not do this house justice. It is even more fabulous than the photos suggest. We had a great time playing tennis and cooling off in the pool. The firepit was a great spot on a chilly night. There was so much space for everyone and we all enjoyed our stay tremendously.

What a property

This beautiful property and home was an amazing getaway. The house is outstanding with everything you will ever need for your stay and the immaculate pool and tennis court with basketball court kept us entertained day and night.

Something for all ages

The Glasshouse property was accommodation for all ages. From the beautifully kept grounds with tennis, basketball, pool, fire pit, table tennis, teenage hang out area to the beautifully appointed house. The family said it was the most comfortable bed they have ever slept in. Brigid was so helpful and responsive. If you need a place to stay where the kids can do their own thing then this is a great choice.

Friends' getaway

We spent a fabulous weekend in the house with close friends. The house is equipped with everything you need or would want - from the well equipped kitchen, with plenty of pots, pans, dishes, cooking gadgets to the variety of games and activities. Lots of fun had on the tennis court, in the pool and in the darts/table tennis area. In the evenings we enjoyed the fire pit and the gas fire in the living area. And the most comfortable beds. We will definitely be coming back with our friends and would definitely look at coming back with our children and their small families. 10/10

Great fun for all the family

Our group consisted of three generations and all ages were catered for. The kids loved the the pool and the adults played tennis, basketball, darts and frisbee throwing to name a few of the activities Our mornings started with a lovely bush walk followed by a morning swim. The bedrooms are large and airy, the ducted air is amazing and there are sooo many outside areas and zones to chill out at that meant everyone could find a quiet spot if needed. Also lots of large seated areas to come together as a family to eat as one big family or play board games. We will definitely try to book again but it’s very popular so it may be difficult to get some common available dates. Thanks for your hospitality, Brigid.
