A perfect way to spend a family Christmas.
A wonderful property that has plenty to do for all, the kids can enjoy a well stocked games room and the pool, as well as plenty of room to run. The adults can shoot some pool and darts, enjoy a relaxing spa and a fire all while in peaceful green surroundings. Fantastic property, i hope to be back again.

Perfect Christmas getaway
This property is absolutely stunning. The three separate dwellings allowed our extended family to come together for Christmas, but also have space to take time to ourselves. The kids had the best time in the pool & the huge kitchen made meals easy to navigate.
We had a blackout on Christmas Eve & were worried about our Christmas feast potentially being ruined but David went out of his way in the pouring rain to deliver water, a lantern & offer us a generator should the power not be restored. Thankfully the power came back on at midnight but we were so grateful for David’s help!
We couldn’t recommend the property enough - the perfect place for a large group to enjoy.

Girls weekend
We were a group of 5 women who booked fro Friday afternoon until Monday lunchtime. Unfortunately, it rained heavily the whole weekend, however it didn’t stop us from having a fantastic time. The property itself is second to none. All you could wish for & views for miles. I can imagine that when the weather is glorious, the property would be even more exceptional, with no reason to leave other than to gather supplies. We’ll be back, for sure.

A piece of Paradise
Delightful all the way round. Extremely well equipped kitchens, lovely beds and linens, beautiful grounds so well kept, ample space for a big group, and checkin process was a breeze. Truly an ideal venue to do retreat or large gatherings. I’ll be booking again in the future!

Boys Weekend Away
Group of 15 boys away for 4 nights in Mid March 2021. Booking process & communication was fantastic. The property itself was impressive, catered to all our needs and we would definitely stay here again. Unfortunately there was freak flooding & torrential rain during our stay and due to the location we had difficulties getting in and out of the property to local areas like Byron & Ballina, so something to be mindful of when looking at the location and transportation needs.
