Warm and welcoming home
We absolutely loved our stay, Linda was extremely communicative and very welcoming. The home has all the facilities and felt like a home away from home. We loved walking around the property and the veggie patch and chickens were an added bonus. Highly recommend.

Cosy retreat
This is an ideal place to land if you're stopping in Taree. The house is cosy and clean, and is equipped with all we needed for a comfortable stay. It's in a lovely bush setting, with birds and frogs providing a tranquil soundtrack. It's an easy drive to Old Bar and Taree. The hosts, Linda and Richard, are delightful. Five stars all round.
