A short Stay in Ophir

We (a group of 4 old people), were greeted by Russell and provided with an introduction to the property. He provided some of the history of Ophir and made suggestions regarding the best place for a meal, all of which was accurate. He made a prediction of the likely weather conditions for the Bike ride to Wedderburn and he was correct.

Ophir excellence

We loved our 3 nights in Ophir at the restored church. Totally relaxing. Very comfortable beds and duvets, fluffy towels, well appointed living and kitchen with everything we needed. Great bathroom with a really good shower. The deep bath was a treat. Our hosts were welcoming and really helpful and hospitable with good suggestions for day trips. There were even beach towels for a swim at the local outdoor pool. Will be back again it was a really lovely stay. Thanks for a lovely holiday.
