Lovely venue, surrounded by bush. The space worked really for our work wellness day. The space had lots of character and the facilities were well maintained and clean.

We loved this venue, ideal for our family reunion, as the location is adjacent to a reserve named after my grandfather. The house itself is beautiful and has a lovely “feel” about it….
