A short but so sweet stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay at The Wattle. Such a peaceful location with a beautiful open view across the country lands to mountain ranges. The accommodation has absolutely everything needed, was cosy, comfortable and we loved the country styling decor. It was wonderful to have our puppies with us and they just had a wonderful visit. Many thanks Winn for your hospitality. Our stay was everything we hoped it to be.

Fabulous little cottage with everything you need to enjoy a magical and comfortable stay. The hotel quality mattress and crisp white sheets were a real treat. Winn is lovely and very accommodating. Unfortunately it was raining most of the time and very wet underfoot so couldn't enjoy the outdoors at all.

Wattle Lodge -

Wattle Lodge is everything promised by the hosts, and more. The Lodge is beautifully presented. We loved walking on the hills, relaxing BBQ’s on the verandah, watching the kangaroos, grazing cattle and bird life, playing our guitars on the verandah by night - just us, the night sky and a red wine. Winn and Roger are wonderful hosts, keen to help in any way possible, and share their knowledge of local history. We’re looking forward to returning in 2022.
