Our family had such a lovely weekend here. Our hosts, Rachel, Jon and their children were very kind, flexible and accommodating to our rather large extended family - including our dog.
Our boys spent the weekend playing with their super friendly ducks and chickens, climbing trees and the amazing cubby house that Jon built, sliding down hills and the awesome slip and slide, playing football together and generally just enjoying foraging for seed pods and other fascinating finds in the great outdoors!
We spent most of Saturday morning visiting the local markets where we found some unique treasures and delicious gelato and then the rest of the day at the local river rapids recommended by their lovely boys, Finn and Joe.
We started the glow worm journey but it started raining as we arrived which was probably a good thing as the boys were asleep within a few minutes of the drive back anyway after such a big day of fun.
The accomodation was perfect for our needs - it’s not exactly luxurious but that’s not what we were after. It was beautifully rustic, simple & clean, and Rachel was kind enough to let us squeeze in an extra person as we weren’t sure of our family’s plans - this all worked with no problems at all. We stayed on a very hot weekend but it didn’t feel that bad even without air conditioning as there were three fans and polished cement floors, which probably helped. We brought an esky full of food and enjoyed a family BBQ one night with the boys enjoying their dinner on a picnic blanket by the cubby house, followed by a board game.
We even managed to fit in a beach swim at the beautiful Hastings point on the way home.
All in all, a wonderful, highly recommended getaway.
