This is a Unique place to stay with great hosts. We Loved the house and where it’s situated. The property is just on the edge of Townsville without any of the Traffic Noise you get in town. With a nice peaceful five minutes to the shops, takeaways galore and the all mighty Ross River you would e Greedy to ask for more. Thanks to the kind host, We stayed for just over a week and Loved every second of it. From watching the variety of birds feeding in the front yard to watching the horses frolicking across from us we loved our stay. The kitchen had everything we needed and the screened patio out front was Brilliant! Given half the chance, we Will Be Back. We tried to add some photos but Wotif kept rejecting them :-(

Very clean property, excellent amenities, nice country setting. Occassional dog barking noises early morning and at night from knennels nearby.Would of benefited from a introductory folder which had information about how to use items - Internet, TV, washer, Stove etc..... - rather than guessing - and information about Townsville and places to see, things to do etc...

Meeting my Grandson in Townsville

Booked 4 night’s accommodation and cannot recommend this property highly enough. Immaculately clean, peaceful, but close enough to ammenities like Woolworths, Pub etc. This is the first time I have booked accommodation through Stayz, and the communication from Jackie was absolutely spot on. Thank you for everything.

Lovely home

Perfect for our family of 4 (my 5 year old and 13 year old girls shared a bed) for 4 nights. Very lovely, modern home in country setting away from hustle and bustle, very relaxing.

A beautiful oasis

We ended up here after 2 cancellations, so was a bit further away to the city than we would of liked but we knew that when we booked. It was a beautiful property just out of town. Not very far from Woolies and a local shoppocentre.

Amazing property & amazing hosts!

What an absolutely beautiful home. Jackie and her husbands were sooo accommodating of our last minute changes, came down to help us with the wifi and were so incredibly lovely. The decor was beautiful, the home clean and spacious and comfortable. Can’t thank them enough for providing us with this beautiful place during a crappy time.
