Property was clean and spacious and had plenty of space to gather indoors on a wet weekend, with a lovely outlook. We appreciated the basket of goodies on arrival and the firewood provided (the rain cleared for just long enough to use the fire pit!) Many thanks!

We mustered a group of school mates and their families at Wiseman's Ferry. Perfectly convenient for friends coming from Newcastle, Canberra and all across greater Sydney.
We had excellent and informative contact from Shani, the property owner, and were easily able to accomodate our group of 17 across the three main buildings. Having dual single beds in each room worked well. We congregated in the main conference room which was big enough for all of us to be in simultaneously, to prepare meals together, for the kids to use their games consoles on the TV all at the same time. We were sheltering from the blistering heat wave during the day and didn't feel crowded at all. The mornings and late evenings were spent wandering in the gardens and enjoying the courtyards.
To cope with the heat we got great advice about using a local water park - we all soaked for hours and it was sensational.
Rustic and suitable for a range of kids , we had 7 to 16yrs and a crew of adults. No problems, great location, very approachable and accomodating hosts.

A great get away for a group. The only reason cleanliness is rated lower is the large bush natural setting which didn't bother us to much. Dust, spider webs, unclean windows but understandable in the enviroment.

Had a lovely staycation with extended family. Large, spacious cottages for our group but also enough space for each family to have their own time. Beautiful greenery and views to wake up to. Loved the larger dining table to have meals around. Kids had fun exploring the grounds and visits from a water dragon. It was a memorable trip and great stay.

Had a wonderful time celebrating mine and my friend’s birthday with close friends at Shani and Adam’s beautiful property.

Thanks Shani and Adam!
5.0
Plenty of room for large family and groups.
It was great to sit around the outdoor fire and relax in the gazebo's.
Great area for the kids to play on the swings and enough room to kick a ball.
The huge table was able to fit us all for meals.
The toys for the kids was great even the treasure chest in the bedroom. Plenty of books to read for all age's.
Short walk to the pub and shops even down to the river.

All the guests had an amazing time and were thoroughly impressed with the retreat. Adam and Shani are a pleasure to deal with.
5.0
A beautiful and tranquil setting. The three residences are very clean and welcoming and offer so much space with very appealing open areas and scope for large numbers. The garden provides different attractive areas to relax in. A treat to sit around an outside fire (all set up) in the evening. Very attentive, friendly hosts who responded promptly to any questions. And a fantastic town and area to expore. After such a wonderful weekend we definitely intend to return next year.

This property was perfect for a large group of friends to have a weekend away together. The three seperate cottages slept everyone comfortably, there was no shortage of space! Plenty of facilities to cook in the kitchen and outside on the bbq. The fire pit was a nice place to chill out as the temperature cooled in the evening. The hosts were very accomodating of us and made sure all our needs were looked after.
5.0
Shani was awesome!!! Great communication and assistance when needed. Was great to stay at the forgotton Valley resort. We had an event based in the area and used the property as our base. Was a very comfortable stay for 13 adults. Would be great for large family holidays, in such a gorgeous spot. Great kitchens and resources.
Will definitely be returning.

This facility served our purpose of having a family get together for around 20 people, aged 0 - 70. The facility was functional and workable for feeding and entertaining our group both indoors and out. The kids enjoyed areas to run around and investigate, Adults sat around talking and enjoying the sun, when available.

We booked this venue to use for our wedding and it could not have been more perfect! We had a small ceremony and reception inside the house and plenty of beds for family members to stay with us. Adam and Shani were amazing!!! They were so welcoming and helpful! It was relaxing and perfect. The photos from around the grounds look incredible. So happy we booked this place!

Adam and Shani were great hosts who communicated promptly and clearly.
It was the perfect place to host everyone I wanted to celebrate my birthday with. It was big and quiet. The beds were comfortable and the places were generally well kitted out (though I've passed on feedback to the hosts about some additional items that would be useful. Chopping boards was one thing I forgot to mention. Installing some body wash dispensers in the bathrooms would be useful too). The garden is glorious. It was a real treat.
The property needs a bit of work so don't expect the four seasons but do expect a cool bush retreat with lots to explore.
Overall I had a really positive experience, though I would say I think the photos make the inside look a little more schmick than they are in reality.
The price is okay but could probably be a bit cheaper - I've stayed in more luxe places for a lower price with the same number of people.

The place was huge, with plenty of room for all activities and groups needs.
Lovely grounds looking down into the paddocks across the way with cows (and a cheeky dog herding them).

Great group stay
Large number of bedrooms and bathrooms made it very comfortable for our big group weekend away.
The aircon and fans across almost all rooms worked great on a hot and muggy weekend. The kitchen facilities could do with an upgrade - ovens didn’t work so just pre-plan meals for bbq, stove or eating out but the property is great value for money and great location very near the main township. Definitely recommend staying for group stays.
