I booked the stay at Dinah's lovely cottage for my mum as a mothers day present. Mum tells me it was absolutely lovely, and that Dinah was an excellent host. Would recommend!

We had a fantastic time in this cozy place, loved the quite and serenity of this place! Thank you to Dinah for being very accommodating and for making the most amazing strawberry jam ever! We will be back! Eve & Tom

This place was even better than I could have hoped. Photos are great but barely do it justice. Dinah was a fantastic host. Such a cosy little cottage, will be back again for sure.

I stayed at the Glenn cottage for a much needed peace and quiet which i got. Dinah was very warm and welcoming. I loved the sound of nature in the morning and at night.

Dinah was very welcoming. And the cabin was so cute.

My husband and I arrived at Little Glen Cottage on a beautiful sunny afternoon. We were greeted by Jazz (a beautiful white stallion) and the neighbours goats, chooks and pig. What a healthy entourage of beautiful specimens who, as well as Dinah, truly made us feel welcome. The cottage was absolutely gorgeous. On entering we popped the Beatles straight onto the record player and set about settling in. The bed was delicious and as cosy as the fire we enjoyed in the fresh Autumn evening air. Our doggy was also in heaven as he alternated between chilling on the porch and investigating smells around the property. We cooked a baked dinner in the stove and enjoyed Dinah's offering of bread, eggs and tea for breakkie (along with some locally sourced avocado and tomatoes). We took Dinah's advice and each of us enjoyed a massage which she arranged with a local - Joanna. I have NEVER experienced such an incredible massage- her 17 years experience shone through with every stroke, pressure point and reiki touch. I am also pregnant, but Joanna was very in tune with what my body and baby needed. Overall, our experience was relaxing, peaceful and just what the doc ordered. Will be back.

Such a perfect city break. We absolutely loved Dinah's property and are already planning another trip. The house was cosy and warm and the scenery was beautiful. Loved the company of the animals! A perfect and relaxing weekend, next time will take advantage of the local produce as well :) Thanks for a wonderful weekend Dinah!

Dinah's rustic style cabin was everything i was hoping for and more - nestled away at the back of her property and away from the main house i felt like i had the entire place to myself - the comfy couch on the veranda was the perfect spot to curl up with a book and a cuppa and watch the sun set. Its the perfect place to escape and unwind. Dinah's interest in antiques is evident as she has tastefully decorated the studio with pieces from her collection - it was refreshing to stay in accommodation that was a bit quirky and different from the rest. Dinah was also a graceful host and made me feel right at home. I highly recommend the local red wine and also the in house massage from Yohanda. Thanks again Dinah :)

Nicola! You'are a beautiful host. Thank you so very much for allowing us to stay in your house. It was a great last minute booking and so many unexpected delights. Your house is so cozy and my family had the best time. Your swimming pool was a huge huge bonus especially with our girls. Chilling at your expansive deck, slow breakfasts and long lunches. I've baked and cooked which I enjoyed so much in your amazing kitchen. That's such a luxury in itself. Thank you once again and we're very lucky to have found your house during the busiest Christmas time. Happiest New Year and hope we come and visit again soon. Best regards, Luisa

Beautiful place, relaxing stay for our extended family, thank you. Highly recomended.

Our stay at the Gilboolla Farm was just what we were after. Peaceful, spacious and amongst nature - a real place to escape. The hosts were great with instructions on how to get to the property and also provided a handy guidebook on the area. The house itself is very clean, well furnished and is a great space to relax. Everything is provided and very well-catered for which made the visit so seamless. If only we could have stayed longer.

We had an amazing time and the property is absolutely stunning! Everything was A class and luxurious. Will definitely go back again. One thing to n one though is that the internet "closes" as we worked this out the morning of us leaving when there was no way to make contact with our husbands who were coming to pick us up. There is no reception on the property an that was the only extremely frustrating thing. Wish they would have waited until after 10am ( their specified check out time) before the internet access was cut off.

We had such a wonderful weekend staying at Gilboola Farm! The house is so luxurious and beautiful, and stocked with everything we needed. The gardens and farmland was so peaceful and tranquil and beautifully kept. The kids enjoyed playing tennis on the court, and going on mini bushwalks around the farm. Thank you Cris and Tracey for letting us stay at your beautiful farm!

We had a fantastic time. The house was beautiful, clean and spacious. The hot spa took some time to heat up but it was well worth the wait. I strongly advise insect repellent for any future guests as the mosquitoes come out at night.

Gilboolla was all it promised. Beautiful house on a stunning property. We only wish we had a longer stay.

Kate was really helpful and the booking process was made very easy, especially with all my client's requests. They loved the property and it was just what was described.

Coby and Trav's farm getaway is stunning. Basically brand new, so cosy and great for the kids! It gets hot inland in summer but ceiling fans keep you cool. Highly recommend the property and the owners!

We had a lovely time at cobys place. It was great being able to bring our dog along, however she did need watching as the road is quite close. Very peaceful and clean house. As a winter retreat it would be lovely to have the fire going, it was high 30s during out stay, the ceiling fans worked well (no A/C) although the cool breeze in the evening was very much appreciated. The master bedroom upstairs is huge and comfortable, the little hand made soaps provided were a lovely personal touch and they smelt amazing. Getting to shelly beach was easy, The Esplanade was great for swimming with a little one. My niece loved the cows and trampoline at the property. All in all we had a fabulous time. Thank you kindly coby.

Ebenezer Cottage is an AMAZING get-away! Just a short drive from Sydney (1.5 hrs) to feel pure relaxation and peace. We were fortunate enough to have met Coby on the property upon our arrival and she graciously showed us the entire property. You will see Coby's attention to detail in the cottage and around the property, from the hand-made soaps, quality appliances & fixtures to the super comfy beds/linen. The cottage is tastefully decorated, super clean and includes some of her beautiful artwork. There are two showers and a gorgeous bathtub for a soothing soak (a bonus IMHO). Although we didn't stay in the barn we were thinking it would be a great place to host a wedding or yoga retreat. There is a large open lounge area in the middle with two floor-to-ceiling doors that fully open via remote to allow for further ambiance with the countryside backdrop. This large room also makes for a wonderful home theatre. The cottage is a great weekend away (or more if you are lucky) for either a couple or a family (we have 2 kids, 12 & 7 yr old). The kids LOVED the in-ground trampoline (behind the barn) and basketball hoop! It was wonderful to see the kids just "be kids" on the farm. The 4 cows were also a highlight (the 2 blk angus are expecting calves soon)! The property winds back to a national forest (access from the property) and a creek. There's a tyre swing in the way back for more fun! Be careful for snakes and be sure to wear the bug spray to keep ticks & other bugs away. There's a DVD player if you fancy a movie for yourself or the kids and there are toys for little ones in the room with double bunk beds. Don't panic, there is wifi if you are desperate to "connect". Not only is it's location wonderful as it's close to Sydney but it's only about 45 mins to the Hunter Valley where there are incredible wineries & great food. The cottage is close to Tree Tops Adventure Park (ropes course) and only about 8 mins drive to the nearest general store/petrol station. If you like to hike and/or mountain bike, this would be a great spot to stay as there are many trails to ride and explore. We hope to go back for some hiking, biking and more relaxation. We've stayed at similar properties (including a farm stay in Kangaroo Valley) and this is definitely one of the best! A very heart-felt "THANK YOU" to Coby (and her family) for sharing her incredible property with us!

Coby is an amazing host, and her property is so beautiful! Everything was perfect and the house feels just like home. The toys in the kids room was a great touch for the little kids, and the arrival basket of goodies and fresh eggs was a great touch for the big kids! Highly recommend staying here. Beautiful area and greatly located to a local shop as well as a large shopping centre and other fun activities like the treetop adventure park. Thank you so much for letting us stay in your beautiful home! We would love to come back and see your 3 cows again!!

Coby's cottage was so neat, clean and sitting in such a pretty surrounding. Coby even came by to say hi and shown us the walking track behind the house. I really enjoy waking up early here, just sitting on the front porch breathing the fresh air and soaking in the mountain view. Really lovely place! Highly recommended.

My partner and I highly recommend staying at Beulah Ranch. We were totally at home and didnt want to leave. In our time there we throughly enjoyed the peace, the serenity and the outlook of the cottage.The cottage has everything you need during your stay from board games, movies, beautifully craved chess game and more. Sammy, Greg and Dawns dog is a beautiful, friendly and loves children as Greg said "He will lick the vegemite off your face"...Hes just adorable. All proceeds from staying at the cottage goes to a fantastic charity 'Cowboys 4 Kids' a Equine Psychotherapy program with foster children on the central coast. Yarramalong Valley is a beautiful Valley to visit and explore... We will be back without a doubt.

We had a lovely quiet stay at Beulah Ranch. The view is stunning and the hospitality warm.

Dawn was a lovely hostess. She welcomed us in to the cottage, introduced us to the dogs and showed us around. The cottage itself was very beautifully presented, lovely decor and very clean. Although we were only there for one night we enjoyed our stay at Beulah retreat, so peaceful, friendly and what an amazing view!

Dawn and Greg were excellent hosts. The accommodation is exactly as described and is very welcoming. We only stayed for a short time, but would definitely recommend this to others wanting to explore the surrounding areas.

Beautiful place to stay. Everything was provided and the hosts are lovely. Sammy, the dog is great fun. We went to the tree tops adventure course which was excellent so be sure to check out out.

Thoroughly nice place, lovely people stunning location. Could not recommend it enough. If you are anywhere near here and need somewhere to stay it's a perfect, quiet, spot just on the edge of virgin bush. It's a must!!

Greg was very welcoming although we arrived after it was dark and showed us everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

We stayed at Beulah Ranch with our 5 kids for a week and had a wonderful time. The bungalow was just big enough for 7 of us at a squeeze! The walking trails, playing with Sam the dog, watching the horses and just sitting on the porch enjoying the peace and quiet made this stay memorable. Thanks to Greg and Dawn for being excellent hosts!

Ian and Linda are quick to respond and very accommodating. Their place is lovely, clean and comfortable.

Linda and Ian are a lovely couple who live in a very beautiful valley. Their home and property are inviting, and it's rural charm is unique. We enjoyed chatting over a relaxed brekky in the copious piazza. When we arrived we were greeted with wet and enthusiastic kisses from 'Fire' and 'Nollie' the family's much loved dogs, who gave us keen attention during our stay. The early morning light and birdsong at 'Bidja' were magical.

Linda and Ian are the perfect hosts, they answered any questions we had, pointed us in the direction of some nice restaurants and made us feel very welcome. Their place is in a lovely secluded location, but still within easy distance of some of the highlights the central coast has to offer. The spa was wonderful and sipping wine in there in the evening was a nice treat. Linda and Ian laid on a fantastic breakfast which filled us up for a day of activities. Would highly recommend!

My partner and I book a short notice weekend away from the city. We were very excited as this was our first Airbnb. When we arrived, we pulled into a beautiful driveway up towards the house. We were greeted wonderfully by one of the hosts and shown around their home. The room and their home was beautifully presented and very clean, beyond expectation based on the photos. We spent the afternoon/night at the property in the lovely outdoor entertaining area. We took a walk around the property and were greeted by ducks, horses and of course, their gorgeous two dogs who spent most of the night with us. The hosts were more than happy to provide whatever we needed to cook our dinner on their BBQ and spent the rest of evening in the huge spa. The bed was very comfortable and everything felt very relaxing. By morning, the hosts provided us with a lovely home cooked breakfast and a late check out. The hosts, their home and their beautiful dogs provided us with a fantastic experience and definitely intend on returning in the near future and would strongly recommend staying to our friends and family.

Linda & Ian are wonderful caring hosts. Their place is wonderful and they will do whatever they can to make you feel at home. Highly recommended if you like to kick back and relax.

This is a gorgeous home if you are looking for some where to escape that still feels homely. Linda gave us a great tour of the house and they were easy to be around. They cooked a mean breaky spread and gave us the space of the back area to eat. The sounds of nature topped off the beautiful place! Very relaxing with a homely feel

very nice countryside, friendly dogs and horses, amazing rain forest... we enjoyed our experience there! Linda showed us the way to find wild kangroos and feed them! Thanks very much definitely stay again

Linda and Ian are great hosts, and certainly made us feel at home at their lovely place Bidja. Such a wonderful and tranquil place we'd love to come back again! Thank you!

Great place to just chill and unwind. We had a group of 8-10 over the weekend and the place was roomy with plenty of good spaces inside and outside to relax in. Would happily stay here again. Thanks Pete and Claire for being such good hosts.

Great communication with all the things to keep you comfortable and have a relaxing holiday, thanks

Great week away with family. Hosts Pete & Claire were very accommodating and great at communicating. Beautiful, cozy house. Loved it! Thank you.

Pete and Claire's place in Little Jilliby was beautiful! We loved spending the weekend sitting around the fires, using the walking tracks and just relaxing! Being pet friendly, our dogs loved being able to run themselves crazy around the land! Will most definitely book again in the future!

We had a fantastic stay at Pete & Claire's home. Everything was perfect, clean and nice. Claire is very responsive and she has been very helpful! Thank you for everything

The house was wonderful and perfect for a weekend away. The 3 fires made it cosy, and there was lots of rooms and space. The outdoor area was also another great area to spend time. If you have some children coming along the cubby house gave hours of amusement.

Claire and Pete are great hosts.. Always replying within a few minutes and accomodating to your needs. Location, house and property is beautiful and would recommend to anyone.

We had a big crowd ther and received Excellent customer care. We got prompt actions for everything needed.Kapi

Loved this place! We hired the two houses for a 16 of us and 2 dogs and Meg couldn't have been more accomodating. Breakfast food left in both houses, well kitted out, plenty of storage/fridge space and beautiful bedrooms etc. the pictures don't even do it justice! Thanks Meg!

This is a fabulous place for a group to stay. We were a family Christmas get-together of 18 people and it was perfect. Thanks so much Meg for the sensational venue. The grounds are incredible and the accommodation was perfect. We enjoyed Max and the geese's company very much as well(URL HIDDEN)
