Our hosts provided detailed information on how to reach “The Woll”, the provisions that we should bring and from where as Gloucester town shops are 35 mins away.
This rustic house is clean, stylish, amply stocked with kitchen and BBQ items and beautifully located in the rolling hills. There is a good house compendium and plenty of brochures for local activities which were most useful for planning things to do in our short stay.
We had little Kangaroos visit the garden early each morning and at sun down. And those green barking frogs wow !
A few things worth noting for city slickers in the country: this is a large acreage property and while the hosts do not run cattle they allow neighbors to run a small herd of fully grown Angus and Hereford bulls on the property. The bulls seem to like the track to the house and on a few entries and exists blocked our path to the road and the gate to the house. Not being being totally sure of the approach we were patient and edged our car forward slowly. 4 of the bulls also liked to be around the house fence. Perhaps they were looking for company but one made his presence felt with deep snorting if you approached. To us this made it risky to venture down the slope to the river with a tone of beef on your tail !
If you feel the presence of the bulls may be an issue I’m sure the host could have his neighbour move them off property for your stay. Just ask as they where very accommodating hosts.
We had mobile reception at the house and internet access was very good.
We did find that upon entry that the house fabrics, bedding, pillows were a bit “musty” as if it had been locked up for a few days. Needs more fans that can be kept on to dissipate mildew.
Overall, we did enjoy our stay and would certainly consider returning for a week to enjoy the area more.
