Baby boomers reunion at O'Connell
Our group generally enjoyed our 4 nights at this property. Clearly the house and amenities have been thoroughly enjoyed over the years by families, family groups and many children. Its not new and a bit of wear and tear was apparent. But we thought it was excellent value for money. As our group was age 60 plus we were also able to enjoy the expansive house, the outdoor eating area and BBQ, the air-conditioned comfort, the pool and the proximity to Mayfield Gardens, Abercrombie House, the O'Connell Hotel and nearby Bathurst City and Oberon. Bedrooms were ample; linen, blankets and towels all clean and fresh. Kitchen size and amenities were impressive and we encountered the most well stocked pantry ever before witnessed. All this was topped off with a welcome pack from host Mel: a giant bowl of fruit, chocolates, multiple choices of breakfast cereals, bread, milk, tea and coffee for all of the 4 mornings and more should we have stayed longer. And lastly the hens averaged 2 eggs a day - a treat for us city dwellers.

3 day family break
Location, beds / linen, pool, games room, seating, house size all very good. What spoilt the stay was the poor condition of building. Door entry step, tiles and slate, dishwasher racks, taps, lounges, some chairs, towel racks, various inclusions broken or missing. Supplied toys dirty or broken. No instructions at all about garbage, dishwasher use. 9am check-out is very unfair - having them waiting outside at 9am very unprofessional. Overall, it was disappointing for the amount charged - overpriced.

A great stay in the country
This was an ideal property for multiple families getting together. The Oconnell area is quite picturesque and this house has panoramic views toward Bathurst. It is also ideally situated close to a very nice friendly cafe and the Oconnell Pub. We used all the facilities offered, the fire pits, the tennis court, the games room, the indoor fire and the heated pool which was a real bonus on the cooler days. We had visits from cows and kangaroos and the chooks were really friendly. We had the best lamb cutlets ever at The Royal Hotel in Oberon. Unfortunately Mayfield Gardens had been severely damaged by the cold snap just before our trip. The only negative was the wifi which did not work for a large group of users. This house was not in pristine condition however we saw that as a positive which allowed us to relax and enjoy our stay.

The house was so well suited to our group of friends and family, room to spread out. Wood fire kept us very warm and gave us a relaxed stay. The host supplied breakfast and much more. Close to Bathurst for a days excursion. we had a great time.

Country comfort
There are many bedroom with lots of combinations. There is a pool that you can even use in winter. Cows, chickens and sheep keep kids away from screens. The house is nice and warm, with deep lounge chairs for wstvhing tv and reading. Mel, our hostess, made us very comfortable and left plenty of supplies and backup support. Lots of activitirs to do around us.

We had a great stay at this property and we would highly recommend staying here the property was great but the only downfall was the CLEANLINESS of the house! The whole house needs a good deep clean inside! Communication and all with the owner was great. Plenty of space in the house for everyone.

We had a great time. Loved the tennis court although too cool for the pool. House worked well for our group of friends. Lovely village and sadly the pub closed for renovation. Thanks Melanie for all the goodies left for our use, we didn’t expect it and it was a lovely gesture.

Wonderful Family Farm Stay
My family of three generations all had a wonderful three days . The host left plenty of supplies in bathrooms and kitchen area . All ages were catered for in accommodation. The outside areas had plenty of chairs / tables and the wood pile was amazing . We had both indoor and outdoor fires all three nights and did not run out . We will certainly recommend the farm to others .?

Large farm house suitable for large group
We had a 5 generation family get together of 19 people, age 11 weeks through to adult. We utilised every room, enjoyed the animals, tennis court, even 2 boys in the pool in July 😱. We did day trips and explored Bathurst, Oberon & Orange. Great location. Would be very happy to return. Host Melanie was awesome and responsive to a few things we needed during the week. No hesitation to recommend

What a great host Mel is. Everything about this was families are welcome. We were a family of 8 adults and 8 children but we never felt we were on top of one another. The tennis court was given a great workout and the kids tried the pool. Little extras were everywhere from the milk and bread to the chocolates in the foyer. Thankyou Mel I would highly recommend this host and property

We had a great time, there is plenty of space to roam. The kids made great use out of the tennis courts, play equipment and we enjoy roasting marshmellows. Melanie was a great host and assisted us when needed. They left us breakfast cereal and the biggest fruit bowl ever. Would definitely stay again.
