What a stunning vista. The outlook from our cottage was breath taking. Everything in the cottage was to a high standard. It was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast basket was yummy. There was juice, cereal, toast and honey. A great place to stay in the country.

Love, love, love! What a perfect retreat to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary this weekend. We can’t recommend this couples accommodation in the country highly enough! From the friendly, passionate, hardworking staff (Rennae, Michael & Carol) to the bespoke boutique room with beautiful amenities & indulgent brekkie all surrounding this historic property - it’s simply divine in every way. Thank you for making my surprise come true!

Country homestead luxury B&B

I spent two nights mid-week in a tastefully decorated and cosy accommodation at The Barracks. The breakfast baskets were very generous and delicious. The backdrop of the Tocal countryside and homestead was lovely. Very relaxing, and the I very much enjoyed the caretaker’s complimentary tour of the historic homestead.
