The serenity is amazing, the dog enjoyed the freedom, we drove to the local pool for a swim and got to play tennis locally.
Very peaceful, no unnecessary contact take time to enjoy the stars but find a way to keep the mozzies away

House was lovely, especially for our two families, great outdoor space to sit and watch the sun go down over looking the rolling hills. Layout of house was great with bedrooms on each end of the house which gave each family privacy. The house is located 10 minutes out of Orange which was perfectly positioned to really feel like you where in the quiet of the country but only a short drive to wineries and the centre of town.

This was a family and friends getaway for the June long weekend '22. 3 X couples, 2 x singles. 5 bedrooms used for the weekend.
I had expressed some concerns regarding the recent reviews on the Stayz site about the property and had emailed the bnb property managers and was informed that if anything needed attending they would be available to communicate with during our stay.
The property is lovely, it's clean and for us it was perfectly located with pretty, country views. Our family and friends like to go for runs and walks and the private roadway in this mini farm subdivision gave us a 7km loop without any traffic and lots of farm animals to look at along the way. There was a gorgeous horse Tyson at the end of the driveway belonging to the neighbouring property which received lots of pats and carrots from us.
The house is modern, clean, stylish and looks exactly like the photos. We cooked all our meals at home, the big dining table and kitchen were perfect. It was too cold for a bbq but the outdoor entertaining area looks very inviting. The fireplace had plenty of wood and the general supplies of everything in the house was great.
A few problems:
The toilet door handle was broken when we arrived, which was the share bathroom for 5 x people and when we immediately contacted the BNB property manager they said it couldn't be fixed while we were there - the earliest they could get someone out was Monday when we were leaving. We had to come up with our own interim solution for the door which was not ideal and we had to spend some time doing a quick repair while we were there on holiday. The property would benefit from an extra toilet for the number of people it can accommodate.
There was no electric blanket on one of the beds and given that the rooms are cold at night this was a problem for the guest who had that room.
The drain was blocked in the share bathroom and one of the guests had to lift the drain and pull out the large lump of hair from previous guests which was very unpleasant but needed to be done to have a functioning shower.
The complimentary bottle of wine was a nice touch on arrival.
We had booked a local tour company for a wine tour - Country Food Trails and that added to our fun time in Orange.
The property is pet friendly and one of the guests had brought their greyhound and that worked just fine.
If you are visiting, check to see if the Orange markets are on. Restaurants need to be booked well ahead.

The house is very nice and modern, the property managers were very responsive which was appreciated. Compared to some other stays the property is very bare with only the most basic things there. We had to ask for fire wood and gas for the bbq as it was not present on arrival. There was very little essentials in the pantry so make sure to bring everything with you. The TV didn’t work properly/easily.
The property was modern however it was clear that it was put together at low cost as some of the fittings were already falling apart.
Overall it was fit for purpose and easily accommodated our entire family + medium sized dog quite comfortably. The fact that it was pet friendly was a bonus.
It was a good property and did the job however as noted compared to some other properties I have stayed in it was lacking the care, attention to detail, and finer touches that is common in other holiday rentals.

Needs a good clean
First impressions - looked awful, lawns unkept, grass so high around the property. Once inside, noticed cobwebs on the windows, dead flies on most windows sills. Dirty rag just hanging on a chair as you walk outside. Sewerage smell in the main bedroom. Bins were overflowing with rubbish, gas bottle was empty for the BBQ, no dishwashing tablets, coffee was hard as a rock in the canister, no sugar, no toilet paper, empty hand soaps in the bathrooms. This house was lovely, but just unkept and unstocked. On the positive note, management were quick to fix the stocking issues with a gas bottle and lots of other goodies delivered. Very happy with their service.

Large and spacious
Windera was perfect for us, we stayed as two families, and the layout of the house with two collections of bedrooms at each end and a large living/kitchen/dining common area in the middle worked really well. The spacious covered area at the back was great for relaxing and BBQing. The kids enjoyed meeting Tyson and giving him pieces of carrot.
