The place was wonderful. Marie was away when I visited but her friend, Sharon was around and she is such a dear. She made my first & solo trip to Australia very enjoyable. Coming fr a big city, i enjoyed the peace & quiet. The nearest supermarket & train station is about a 20-25mins walk. U can go to the nearest bus stop, 10mins from the house (bus 48/55) to get to the city. Use google maps to plan ur trips if u dont drive, its quite helpful.
