“The most relaxing & restful weekend with good friends & food” The Lavender Manor was perfect for a surprise 50th weekend away with the girls.Everything was there that we needed and the house was very comfortable.The treatments we had on Saturday were very satisfying. We will be back!!!

“Easy, cosy, luxury - everything we wanted.” I stayed here for two nights in the school holidays with my husband and two 11yo girls. The girls loved the "enchanted" garden - where they cartwheeled their hearts out and the luxurious bed they shared. My husband and I loved the character, decor and comfort of the house, with many lovely and thoughtful touches throughout. The kitchen made cooking while away as easy as at home, and the house was very conveniently located within a short 5min walk to Leura mall. I can honestly we were wanting for nothing. This was easily reflected in our interaction with Caroline who could not have been easier to communicate with. We certainly intend to visit again and would highly recommend to others.

“Christmas in July celebrations - a perfect venue” I booked the full house plus Wood Duck cabin for 10 of my friends to celebrate Christmas in July. The house was perfect for yuletide celebrations and Elizabeth and Phillip were very accomodating at answering all my queries no matter how random in the lead up to the event. This included finding me a butcher to order my turkey and measuring the oven so it would cook! When we arrived at the house, the log fires were all burning, the candles lit, a christmas tree lit and christmas carols playing in the lounge. For a group of 30+ professionals, we were like excited kids at Christmas. All these little surprises added to our enjoyment of the weekend. The house is stunning. There are 3 bedrooms in the main house, plus a further double in Wood Duck Cabin and then two roll out beds. All rooms are exceptional quality, that is feels like staying in a hotel in the confort of a home. There are two lounge areas and a formal dining room, all lined with floor to ceiling glass walls which the sun streams through in the morning. The three log fires keep the place feeling cosy in the winter despite the glass and there are plenty of extra heaters should you want it. The dining table easily sat all 10 of us, and being in a separate room meant we could eat and then reture to the lounge to relax in front of the fire. It is an idyllic venue. Perfect for a Christmas get together but equally would be fabulous through the summer with its outside areas. The stand alone bath in the main bathroom looks up onto velux windows to watch the stars through at night - it really has been perfectly designed. There is a walk from the front door to an amazing lookout at the end of the road (Evans Lookout, about 1.5km each way). I have already recommended this place to friends, great for a group get together or for a couple staying in Wood Duck Cabin. We are already considering booking up for July again next year. An amazing find that I can't rate highly enough.
