Fab place to stay in Orange
Brilliant accommodation and conveniently located. The house was beautiful, clean and beautiful. If travelling with small people just be aware that the oven has to stay on and is hot to touch. The house was otherwise it was so well stocked for little kids and adults alike!

Holiday Magic
What a fantastic venue for our family group of 12 to celebrate both an 80th birthday and 50th wedding anniversary. There was so much space for everyone to spread out and feel comfortable. And even though I'd read some cautious remarks about the AGA oven, it proved to be a huge hit and was well used during our stay. We enjoyed our time there so much we're already talking about our next visit there.

Friends catch up
Coming from Sydney and the Hunter Valley, we were looking forward to a short stay in Orange. Wineries, a little retail therapy and just staying in to cook up a feast for dinner. The property catered for all of that and was very comfortable for the ten of us.
