We had a wonderful time! The animals were a definite hit! Thank you for your hospitality and friendliness. We were definitely transported back in time by your quaint cottage. My girls are going to miss Fudge and all the lovely country atmosphere. Thanks Julie and Jason.

The A Family Oct 08

We loved the animals – they were very gentle, especially Fudge! We enjoyed patting, grooming and feeding him. The tyre swing was also really fun!! Being in the country was great! The cottage was really cute and was a great home for our three nights here. We collected 2 eggs from the chickens and they were very tasty!!!!

A, M, R and L Oct 08

We came for the rest and to celebrate K’s birthday. The rest was the best, and we enjoyed every day. My mum would be so proud of me using the Early Kooka. I enjoyed feeding the chooks & collecting the eggs. Do I have to go home? I especially enjoyed the company of my husband and my dear friends S & D. They always complete the journey.

K, B, S, D   Oct 08

It’s all true! The cottage is comfortable and we felt very welcome. It was a thrill to see the baby gosling hatch, and we will never forget the brave gander in shining armour!!! We will be back and will stay for longer next time. We really did feel at home. Thank you to the Peacock family and thank you chooks for the yummy eggs!!!

T, D, A   Oct 08

What a great place and ideal location to explore the wonderful Southern Highlands. It was nice to find such a quiet place to relax and read a good book, catch up on some well deserved rest and to do what ever we liked. Loved the atmosphere of the house and the pleasant surroundings - just lovely.

R, C   Nov 08

C   loved her big brass bed and fudge. Both our daughters adored the ‘farm’ they loved feeding the animals and especially Fudge and the ducks. It was a great week filled with fun and excitement. The cabins are gorgeous and a real treat with all of the knick knacks. We visited Fitzroy falls which was beautiful and completed the walk to ‘Glow Worm Glen’ it was fascinating. M loved Fudge and the fireplace roasting the marshmallows, definitely will come back again.

S, M, M, C   Nov 2008

We had a lovely time. We’re leaving relaxed and refreshed after soaking up the cottages ambience and its beautiful setting, so close to the National Park. The animals are beautiful – all of them- and we had forgotten how entertaining it is to watch chickens do their thing. They are so cool ! To top it off, our son, H, slept through the night for the first time in months (he’s 11 months old) - so he’s obviously pretty relaxed too. Many Thanks.

M, D, H  Nov 2008

We had a lovely wintery stay and appreciated the warm fire and bedding. Lovely eggs for breakfast, thanks for your hospitality.

S, G, K, M   Nov 2008

I had a lovely time, quality toilet paper. Thanks for sharing your beautiful ducks, geese and chickens with me I am sooooo envious.

R, A, H, G   Nov 08

We all had a lovely relaxing time. R absolutely loved ALL the animals – loved patting and feeding them all. Weather was drizzly and cold but the fire made it so very ‘comfy’ – so lovely and quiet we could all just take it easy and catch up with our reading etc. Thank you for the fresh eggs etc, Thank you for your kindness and friendliness. (Ps. Jesse our dog loved it and had a great time)

J, J, R   Dec 08

Great hospitality – lamingtons for afternoon tea, Barry (kookaburra) greeting us and a warm and welcoming little cottage. Visited the Ye Olde Bicycle Shop for coffee and Chinese for tea. Loved animals. Who would think we would need to light the fire in December but we did. Great company and had a wonderful time.

A, L   Dec 08

We enjoyed feeding the horses, donkeys, chooks, ducks and the kookas. Our two boys had a great country experience. The constant display of tid bits delighted us all. Thanks for your enthusiasm and willingness to answer our many questions!

J, T, C, I  Dec 08

Dear Julie and Jason, we had a romantic, delightful Christmas. Thanks for the warmth of welcome, the delight of the chooks and the delicious surprise when we arrived. Warm Christmassy regards.

A, C  Xmas 08

(Please note these guests have since been back to visit Morvern twice more!)

Thanks for a lovely holiday albeit too short. J has really enjoyed the animals especially the chickens, looks like we are now building a chicken pen and house when we get home now.

R, A, H, J and Ben the Labrador. Jan 09

Great girl week 39 – 15 degrees. A bush fire, helicopters, kangaroos, everywhere. Fudge escaping down the lane. Bike riding to Echo Point with the kids and the Alpaca shearing. Lots of fun. Thanks for the great venue. P.S. Braedon's great!

A, L, L, N, M

Had a lovely cosy time in the cosy cottage. Sophie loved the chicks and Fudge. Max the dog loved everything. Thank you for the chicken education. It was so interesting! The boys loved seeing the huge water dumping helicopters.

M, S, T, M and Max the dog.  Jan 09

Arrival: The nose twitches with the smokey scent of the fireplace sparking a memory of farm visits long ago, eyes survey the bric-a-brac familiar from so many childhood haunts, the touch of the crisp, clean air and the Oh so comforting sounds of creatures large and small. For the adults this has been a sensory awakening, evoking the sensations of childhood, cherished and distant. For our young children it is the memories beginning. Braedon’s Cottage will become part of future recollections, the family holidays they will hold dear. What a wonderful place, we can share and remember! Departure: Reluctant. We will return for more memory making fun soon!

G, C, B, L, T   Jan 09 (have since returned for a longer school holiday stay in Sept. 09)

Awesome time killing flies, collecting firewood. Comfortable silences filled then with the sound of a bird. Loved it. Enjoyed spending my moments with Barry, Fudge and the rest of the farmyard. Thoroughly enjoyable. Bike rides not for the faint of heart. Friendliest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting, a memorable experience in a wonderful peaceful hideaway. Enjoyable time amongst the bush. Well worth the trip from Sydney. Thank you for making us feel at home on such shot notice Julie. So many wonderful little surprises. We love you Julie and Jason.

J, K, S, S  Jan 09

We had a wonderful stay. N loved feeding the donkeys and animals riding her bike and staying with Braedon. We enjoyed sitting and reading. We choose to watch not TV and without mobiles the break was a real bonus.

B, N, M Jan 09

A very welcome stop on a long journey. Comfortable and welcoming. The spa bath was a big hit with all members of the family. Thanks a million. Ps. The Scottish soldier teacup is just gorgeous.

T, T, M, C, P  Feb 09

What a fantastic place. Our first Valentines weekend away to enjoy the outdoors, had a great time, the place is amazing and so well looked after. Rusty loved all the animals and we wished we didn’t have to go but……Thanks Julie, keep up the good work, we will be back.

R, B and Rusty the dog Feb 09

What a wonderful place of peace and tranquillity. Thank you for the relaxing time we had here. It was great to have a comfy, cosy cottage with a comfy bed (not always found when you go away) to stay in. J thinks she is queen of the chickens.

J, C, R  Feb 09

A charming bit of old Australia so quiet and peaceful. Our granddaughter who lives in Sydney loved the animals. All in all a lovely weekend.

K, B   March 09

I think Bonnie the female cat enjoyed being here the most. A free run of the veranda with animals to look at that she had never seen before made her right at home. Thanks Julie and Jason.

S, R and Bonnie   March 09

Gorgeous location – idyllic stay. Our son loved chasing the chickens, collecting eggs, patting the pony and saying clip-clop and neigh to the horse. We will definitely be back for a longer stay.

R, S, J, B, J   March 09

We came here to relax and we found a beautiful peaceful and restful cottage. Our memories here will last a lifetime as our love for each other. Thank you.

P, D   April 09

M: I loved the alpacas and the horses and Fudge. Thank you for having us. B: I loved lightning Jack and the chicks. Thanks. B: I loved the cottage, the spa, all your beautiful animals and the Southern Highlands. Will be back. Thanks a lot. S: Loved the Southern Highlands wines, getting dirty and having a good fire and thanks for the bread!

B, B, S, M   April 2009

Finally getting the hang of the fireplace! Even tried without firelighters with success! Thanks for another lovely stay (our first in Braedon Cottage) – enjoyed the animals (Fudge is the Fave), the tyre swing, the chooks, and the seclusion, toasting marshmallows and admiring the cottage. See you next time.

G, E, S, E, and Toby April 2009

Thank you for sharing this beautiful place with us. The donkeys and Fudge were a big hit! Unfortunately the chickens laid no eggs the entire time – however this did not stop the kids from waking early every morning and going out to look for them. Inside the singing fish was definitely a hit!.

T, T, O, A, C,  May 2009

Really enjoyed our quiet stay. A great place to base ourselves for doing the Southern Highlands. A taste of country again for us. No doubt we will be back,  a cosy warm environment and so good to be able to read about the history of the property.

V, G  May 2009

Warm and cosy. Lots of things to do and lots of things to see. Even tired the dog out! No T.V. or phone makes a wonderful relaxing holiday. We hope to be back soon. Thank you for having us stay and your hospitality.

J, S, and Cleo May 2009

Enjoyed our stay very much. Very relaxing especially without the television and its rubbishy programs. The farm animals are a delight and loved feeding the chooks and geese with breakfast leftovers. We will be looking forwards to our next stay. We were interested in reading the history of Morvern Valley and we wonder where the name Morvern valley came from.

J, D May 2009

Just thought whilst typing in these comments that I should add that TV reception has now been added to Braedon cottage.  Julie

Exactly what we had hoped for – thanks we loved everything. The chickens didn’t cooperate this weekend but we managed to put some shop bought ones so that A (2 yr old) was happy!

J, J, A May 2009

We had a wonderful time. Thank you! We’ll come back.

C, Y, A, S May 09

Had a great long weekend. Loved the warm fire. The animals were a hoot. The markets were a bonus. The Glow Worm Cave was amazing. Thanks for the welcome basket and surprise in the fridge.

P, J, D, K, June 09

Thank you for a lovely stay. The girls loved the animals especially the alpacas.

R, I, A, L June 09

Thank you for a wonderful stay in beautiful cosy home. Your property is spectacular, your animals adorable and your little touches very welcoming.

C, V, J,  July 09

Great relaxing accommodation (2 cottages) for our annual family reunion. Kids loved the animals.

The S’s July 09

The cottage was really sweet and cosy and the animals were lovely and really cute. It was magic!!! I like wood chopping and making the fire and collecting sticks. My favourite animal was Fudge. I liked feeding the animals. I also liked it when before we went to bed we would vote for the best animal of the day and Fudge won every time. E loved Fudge, and E loved Snowy. Thanks it was everything we hoped for and more – we will be back soon. I liked riding fast down Gullies Rd on my bike in the chilly air, just bumping along with the trees.

H, D, M, E, L and Zena July 09

We loved the cottage and the animals very much. It was a godsend to find such a wonderful place that stayed reasonably priced even in the school homicides!! The kids have really enjoyed the animals the games and the fireplace. We had great walks and especially loved the glow worms. Thank you very much from all of us – no doubt we will be back and won’t hesitate to recommend it to our friends.

S, N, W, A July 09

Julie and Jason your farm and cottages are a real oasis for us city slickers. We really enjoyed ourselves immensely and would love to return. Your hospitality with welcome basket is second to none. Thank you so much

D, F, G Aug 09

Thanks for a wonderful stay, we really enjoyed ourselves. Loved the old kook stove and all the interesting little knick knacks in the cottage. Thanks also for being so family – friendly the highchair porticos and stroller were much appreciated.

T, M, E, R Aug 09

Your property offers a beautiful relaxing break from the city. The kids loved to be so close to all the animals of course and enjoyed feeding all of the horse’s lots of apples and carrots. S’s favourite was Fudge ever friendly and sweet. And we loved going out to the chook house every morning to check for eggs. Thanks Julie Jason Alicia and Braedon for your hospitality.

We enjoyed our little getaway here at Braedon Cottage everything was wonderful especially the girls……even if they didn’t lay us any eggs. The donkeys were so cute too with their wonderful voices. We loved the peace and tranquillity and would love to return with our little grandson he would have the time of his life…..Thank you for a great stay Julie and Jason and your directions to get here were great, thanks again XXX

G, V Aug 09

We had a great stay found the animals to be fun and friendly the excitement of the birth of a new baby lamb was very special. The cottage and environment is very family friendly and we will be returning upon any trips within this area.

J, N, I Sept 09

Lovely country feels with the open fire, décor and animals. We enjoyed the quiet and even the crowing of the rooster. The weather was fine, windy and cool. We enjoyed the local attractions and residents enjoying eating in several establishments around the area. We fed the chickens and bought them extra food to keep them happy and they rewarded us with 8 eggs in 3 days. A happy chicken is a productive chicken. Thanks.

R, J Sept 09

Perfect holiday place with small kids. The animals were a huge hit with the kids especially fudge and collecting eggs. The quiet and relaxed atmosphere made4 it perfect for parents to relax. Definitely coming back

M, M, I and W Sept 09

Thank you. L liked the rooster. H liked Fudge and all the horses, TJ,  Domingo and the donkeys and sheep.

L H and family. Set 09

Thanks for the opportunity to have a short break away from Sydney. The cottage is very cute – it reminds me of my grandmothers house when I was a small child so it is authentic to yesteryear. Can’t believe how well the Early Kooka works – amazing! The Southern Highlands is just lovely and I have enjoyed being here.

A  Set 09

Quiet and relaxing the kids had a great time and we all loved the animals. E really loved the old Chevy! The cottage is fantastic Love how we kept being surprised by the small touches (eg sunny toast) Would love to come back again for a little longer.

P, K, A, E Sept 09

We all loved feeding the animals and collecting the eggs. We would like to came back and say hello again. We liked the bush walks around Bundanoon whey were fun. The Glow Worm Glen was cool. The house was nice4 and we slept well. We like Fudge and the animals the alpacas were nice. Thank you to all. D, T, C, M Oct 09

We would like to think we are ‘Wild Hogs’ but they sleep under the stars and we really enjoyed the comforts of Braedon Cottage so we will call ourselves ‘The Tame Piglets’ So thank you for your hospitality and all the little touches that made our stay so good. Loved the animals at our back door and the fresh eggs. Darren the big Kid loved the smiley toaster.

P, J, D, K, S, D Oct 09

Arrived on three Harley Davidson’s !!!

We had a wonderful stay despite windy weather. The girls loved collecting the eggs and feeding the horses and donkeys. Toasted marshmallows were also a huge hit! We loved all the attention to detail that you put into our stay bacon and eggs, apple pie, bread etc…….The list goes on… Thank you

M, C, G, S Oct 09

 
Dear Julie,
Just wanted to thank you for a lovely weekend away. The girls had such a wonderful time with the animals and are keen for another visit. P..... and I have tried a number of "farmstays" when the kids were younger and they were such a disappointment. So I have to tell you that what you have created with Morvern Valley Guesthouse is a truly wonderful experience of animals for the kids (even though you don't promote yourself as a farmstay as such) We all had a great weekend. I
also enjoyed brushing the donkey and patting the alpaca's. So thanks again.

L... -February 2007

It is rare and beautiful to be awakened by such a magnificent rooter. To be able to feed ‘Fudge’; enjoy the presence of the alpacas and horses and sheep – to feed the birds and watch them enjoy their meal – the geese are happy and protective of their nest – The hens supply such lovely eggs – thank you for all of this as well as the beautiful apple pie- The mock orange by the gate introduces us to a place of charm and peace. Thank you very much for a peaceful adventure. We have very much enjoyed our visit and will think of it often. The history of the guesthouse is fascinating –

N & T. Cherrybrook October 2007

Thank you for a fantastic weekend, we all had so much fun! Thanks for your warm and welcoming hospitality and for all the yummy food. We all really enjoyed exploring all the antiques and photos, inside and out. Thank you also for letting us experience all your gorgeous chicks and ducklings it was so exciting to actually see them hatch. The boys really enjoyed feeding and caring for the farm animals it really added the extra touch to our stay. Also a special thank you to B who showed our boys his special cubby, they will remember it fondly for years to come! We would love to visit again.

P, K, J, L. October 2007

Very nice place! Brought my mother and uncle here, who are visiting from Singapore and they loved it. My sister and brother-in-law also joined us for the weekend and we had a fun time. The animals, especially the pony, were nice. My Labrador Sindu enjoyed herself. Stand by! We are likely to be back!

S, S, G, and Sindu. February 2008

A wonderful Country retreat – we made the most of the surrounding National Park and Glowworm Caves, swam, ate and enjoyed the fresh air.

The cottage was exactly as we had pictured and we all got involved in feeding the horses and chooks. Thank you so much for sharing your property with us and the generous parcel of food that was left for our first brekky. We’ve had an excellent 3 days! Thanx again.

It was a very fun time; I really liked the donkeys oh and Fudge. I also loved the view Thankx M. xxxx

C Family. February 2008

Loved the welcome, quiet, and the whole area. Thought Fudge and the donkeys won our affection and noted the ponies worked as a team to deny others access. Enjoyed the furnishings and greatly appreciated the digital T.V. reception and especially the lovely open fires at night. It was just the break we needed.Thanks Julie and Jason.

A, N, & R. March 2008

It was so beautiful to stay here after our wedding day. Thank you for the chocolates and champagne. You have a lovely guesthouse and it would have been nice to enjoy it longer. Thanks for everything.

P & S. March 2008

All had a lovely time again, especially J who much enjoyed playing with B, M loved the animals too! A wonderful ‘Brigadoon’ weekend getaway! A lovely time had by all – thanks so much Julie – the Scottie dogs were a big hit too! We’ll be back for sure!

G, L, S, B, T. April 2008

A, E, E, & T April 2008

A delightful, comfortable, cosy cottage. Surrounding areas (National Parks) of great interest.

Many Thanks. M, T, J & J. May 2008

A and B have been begging for just one more night’s stay, please please. A has declared this ‘the best part of the holiday’ which says much, as it has topped the Dubbo Zoo and all the tourist spots in Canberra. W has enjoyed the chance to see where his family first settled in Australia – thank you so much for organizing a visit. Bundanoon is indeed a lovely place and your special cottage provides a unique experience. We hope to return one day and as well I have a brother in Canberra who did seem very interested in coming here one day too…Thank You it will come highly recommended.

W, J, A, & B. Brisbane QLD. May 2008

Thank you for our third annual farm Stay! M loved feeding the chickens and seeing Fudge the pony again. So many eggs to collect which was soooo exciting. We enjoyed walking up to the village to the Bakery, and seeing the trains pass by. We enjoyed meeting the two donkeys who were not here last time we visited in July 07. The paddock was a great place for a picnic where we enjoyed our freshly collected eggs in sandwiches! M loved naming two ducks – Mia and Jenna. See you in 08. Once again thank you for all the great hospitality. OXOXOX

M, D & D. Sydney. May 2008 ( Wow….3rd visit !!)

Great neighbours, interesting knick-knacks, lovely and cold. E’s fire was the best. Excellent girly bonding weekend. Found the geese and ducks amusing! Enjoyed the night visitors as well. Thank you, smile and stay warm…..

S, E, J, J, B. Canberra June 2008

Thank you for a lovely weekend. The house is lovely. Having the animals was great – we had a fabulous time. From 'the Hens'.

C, G, S, B, S, A, A, & M. June 2008

We have had such a lovely time being ‘farmers’ – my husband has loved chopping wood, and we all have enjoyed collecting twigs, creek walks, feeding the animals (especially the donkeys!) and admiring the knick knacks. My son is obsessed with the chickens and spent most of his time outside admiring them. We loved eating the eggs and toasting marshmallows! Thank you we will be back with our gumboots! X

A, J & H. Hunters Hill, Sydney June 2008

Had a fantastic weekend –twenty bottles of wine later!! Your house is so cosy and just great for our Xmas in August. Loved the animals and location. Sorry we missed you but I’ll ring when I get home. Home away from home only better!

J, D, P, W, S & S. Sydney August 2008

Thank you for the open fireplaces, fantastic views for relaxing with a wine on the balcony and the cosy beds. The friendly advice and help from Julie and Jason.

L, K, L, C. Sept 2008

Great Place, Good times, Cheers!! Recommend you fry the goose eggs. Beef and Guinness Pie from the Suttons Forest Inn has to be one of the Highlights. Thanks for a great time will see you again.

C’s + N’s. Sept 2008

Wonderful place to have the family all get together to celebrate C’s 60th birthday. Loved the olden days atmosphere and memories brought back by the ‘bits and pieces’ in each room. Look forwards to a much longer midweek want to see more of the local area.

H, C, B, K, T, R, L. Sept 2008

Delightfully decorated and quaint cottage enjoyed the great chats around the fireplace. Great eggs – loved the pie and brekkie!

F, S, F, & R. Sept 2008

Thank you for a lovely week. Our girls had a fantastic time feeding all the animals. They don’t want to leave!!

C, L, A, C, D. Oct 2008

The welcome card and anniversary card were a nice touch. The cake, biscuits, bread, eggs and bacon were very appreciated. (They were for dinner on the first night as mum – M was sick from a tummy bug picked up from the kids during the school week – so we couldn’t go out for dinner). A and L loved feeding Fudge and the donkey. It was nice to wake up to chickens and ducks roaming freely in the yards. Little A and L enjoyed collecting the eggs – A- said they were ” a bit dirty though” but fun anyway. L liked the farm animal toys. We all enjoyed looking at the nic- nacs around the house and the history is interesting! Thank you for a relaxing weekend.

M, C, A & L. Oct 2008

We’ve all had a fantastic time. The boys loved feeding all the animals, and exploring around the farm. Were all so sad to be leaving. We’ve loved the house and garden and cant wait to return. Thank you for all your hospitality.

M, M, J, S, S, J, & T. Oct 2008

Fantastic farm introduction for D (6yrs) and M (4yrs). I overheard D saying he wished we lived here “forever and ever”. Thank you to Julie – you took a special interest in educating us all on the incubation of young chicks. The 2 day olds ducklings were so adorable!!! The children loved grooming Fudge and having hands on experience feeding the horses and the donkeys. The open fire was such a treat – warm and cosy on a cold Bundanoon evening. Many thanks again Julie!

K, D, M, R & C. Nov 2008

Just what the doctor ordered after an exhausting HSC. Wish we could have stayed longer leaving with an over laden car and one duckling called “Stella” to remember you by, we will return.

A (18yrs)– This is really my home away from home. Thank you so, so much!

T, K, A, & E. Nov 2008

Thanks for a great stay. J will miss all her new little friends. We all enjoyed great Mountain Bike Riding and walks to the Glow Worm Glen and the Old Coal Mine. A good time was had by all !!!

J, W, & J. Dec 2008

A delightful quaint cottage the girls adored the animals especially the “egg collecting” ritual each morning! We discovered the smiling tree and Eeyores house too. B has become a bosom buddy and our girls have decided we will be returning.

The H Family. Dec 2008

Beautiful cottage and great surroundings… No telephone and probably one of the most relaxing Christmases we had since very long. Thanks for the yummy bits Julie. The boys had a lot of fun with the animals and loved playing with B who is very knowledgeable. We will be back…..Our best wishes for a prosperous New year for the whole family.

M, L, L, S, I, Y, A, & J. Christmas 2008

It is a lovely place, we loved it. Being South American we thought the llamas would come running to us. However they kept their distance from us. Also being city sleekers it was an exquisite experience to be in the country surrounded by cute animals. “God Bless You” Julie and Jason.

F, V & J. Dec 2008

Great fun animals, shearing alpacas, ducks sitting on eggs, visited the pool by day and had a fire at night. All the fun of a Highland Summer holiday. Thanks.

The C Family. Jan 2009

We had a lovely time! The animals were adorable. We loved cuddling up with the chickens on our laps they are so tame. We also loved the little chicks. T and L would go into the big coop and cuddle the chicks for hours! Sometimes they fell asleep in our arms. Fudge was very tame and lovely even though you knew he only wanted food from you. We also loved the ducks and the peacocks. The house was beautiful! L loved all the old things. Our stay was completely and utterly fantastic we must come back some time.

L, T, H, and D. Jan 2009

Had a lovely relaxing long weekend in a delightful atmosphere. Thank you.

L, R, C & Y. Jan 2009

This is a perfect retreat for a weekend getaway with friends; we came to see the amazing Leonard Cohen in Concert. He was truly great! Inspiring and majestic. We are all sorry to leave this little place of paradise but the real world calls.

M, L, D, G, R, C, & P. Jan 2009

What a fantastic weekend - lots of eating, drinking and having fun. Loved all the animals especially "Ruby" the cat and "Fudge" the horse. It is our second time here and thanks again to Julie and Jason for making our stay here so wonderful. "We will be back" xxx

Five star B+B loved the little touches, bric a brac, historical memorabilia, xmas setting and the lovely animal reception committee outside the backdoor - will definitely recommend to others! and thank you for setting the table so beautifully for us.

J,J,L,S. Sydney 'Xmas in July' 2006

Thank you Julie for a much needed break in such a magical unique property. In such a small space of time we learned so much about all the unique, sweet personalities of all the animals. We'd love to come back. The bread & Pie & note were special too!!

L,B. Sydney - August 2006

What a wonderful five days we've had at Morvern Valley. This is the first holiday with our little 6.5 mth old son & we've all had a great time. Both sets of O's grandparents came for day trips and we went bushwalking, fed the animals, walked up to the main street and drank great coffee and had just an absolute ball. Thanks for such attention to detail Julie - the cherry pie, breakie supplies and cookies were a huge hit. The effort you have put into this place really shines thru, we are looking forward to a return visit sometime soon. So thinks again - this was just what we needed.

L,L,O Randwick -August 2006

For G's 70th birthday gift our dear friends P&M invited us to spend a weekend at Bundanoon with them. As we have drove around the corner and sighted this quaint cottage we sensed what a fabulous time we would have, and we were definitely not mistaken. P & M chose this magnificent location and cottage. The unique deco bric a brac and generous hospitality from Julie and Jason added to this memorable weekend. Thank you P&M for finding this perfect place to capture the importance of friendship. Thank you Julie and Jason for the beauty of the animals and the generous token of dietary delights. Will come again someday.

G,A,P &M, Lake Munmorah, Terrigal - Sept 2006

I don't want to go home! We have had the most relaxing break that we have ever had. We banned television and we agree it is much better without it. We played games as a family every night and read books, This is the first time I have finished a book in years! We are going home to have 4 TV free nights a week. We toasted marshmellows, made jaffles, hot chocolate in front of the fire, went on a 3 hr bike ride, bushwalks, had a day trip and enjoyed feeding and grooming the animals. This has definitely made our family stranger and mum and dad more relaxed, especially drinking wine by the fire every night while the kids were fast asleep, worn out from their adventures. My only suggestion would be a CD player as some nice music would have topped it off. Thanks for bringing us back to nature hope to be back soon.

J,S,C,E,F Wollongong - Sept 2006

What a great suggestion!!! CD/DVD player and lots of C.D.s now at Morvern!!!

Thank you we have had a wonderful time the boys absolutely loved feeding the horses, ducks chickens and loved collecting the eggs and firewood! We also enjoyed lots of bushwalking locally and at Robertson in the search of lots of beautiful waterfalls. The house is lovely and the atmosphere relaxing. Thank you for coming to our rescue twice in crisis! We really appreciate your help and kindness to us. We hope to return. Five days just isn't enough!

P,N,A, North Curl Curl September 2006

Being in tune with nature is what was about in the last 5 days, the animals, the cool fresh air and the surroundings, were just what we needed. We had a very relaxed, quality time and Scottie our 3 yr old Fox Terrier absolutely well behaved and cheerful. Loves playing with Reggie and Sammie the alpacas. Thanks Julie for welcoming us with a basket of goodies and a big smile.

D,N,S, Sept 2006

Love the house and the hospitality. Thank you. Thanks for everything. It was just wonderful. We loved the farm and the children loved the chickens, ducks, horses and alpacas. I loved the verandah. Wonderful Holiday.

This is my youth again I was brought up in a place like this outside Sydney in 1938-1945 (since then in England) Just wonderful, same mangle, same cooker, same verandah and same wonderful lifestyle Thank you.

This is my first experience of the highlands. Your farm could not have been a more wonderful introduction. Thank you - above all for your hospitality, which was wonderful.

SZ,S,M,M. Darlington

This is a lovely place, so tastefully decorated and renovated and with lots of things to see and do. We loved sitting on the verandah looking at the view with a coffee. We just loved this- we could go on and on about it. Thank you. B,R,N. Mt Waverly Victoria
Delightful break, The children want to take Fudge home with us! Thank you for the pie and your hospitality we will return.

S &B Dee Why - July 2005

Have visited this wonderful cottage twice in the past year. The beautiful gardens and "homely" feel of the cottage make it a pleasure to stay, and the hospitality of the owners is just the icing on the cake. Highly recommend further inspection to prospective visitors.

This is an absolutely stunning place - the kids loved every minute of it & didnt want to leave :) They will miss the animals especially Fudge when we go home. The house is beautiful and so interesting. One suggestion though - a wooden bench or chairs near the chook pen to be able to overlook it all :) Thank you M & Family x Great suggestion - new sandstone benches now positioned in the house yard of each cottage, near the chooks and overlooking the paddocks !!!

We had a wonderful time exploring the area - the Park, beautiful green scenery and even rain ! (we'rre not used to that in Adelaide...) Great place, great time, lovely fire, great chooks (at least an egg or two) and wonderful setting in god's creation. Make sure you check out the coal mine.

A, U, H from Adelaide

Absolutely enjoyed Bundanoon is Brigadoon. Beautiful sleepy town. Saturday night at Bundanoon Hotel was great fun. Had great nights around the fire. Love your beautiful house & your animals are great. We would have loved to share the pie....but its hiding, we will be back.

T,G,C,G,R &L Campbelltown (Booked already for dates - next year Wow!!!)

Great time picking Berries at Montrose Berry farm, children loved collecting eggs, going back home will seem quite dull compared to our country life. Hope to visit soon.
