The hosts are great, the property very well maintained, the location was very quiet and located in some beautiful country. Great for a base for some nice country drives and wine and if you enjoy alpacas, they have them too.

The room was luxury. The views, porch, lounge was spacious. The lodging was tucked away on an alpaca farm with fruit trees and an open sunny courtyard.

Over Night Stay
Lovely property in rural Gladstone, unfortunately we were only there one night so didn't get to wander around the beautiful garden. We were well looked after by Tracey and would recommend to anyone wanting to escape a town environment.
