The perfect escape
It was an absolute pleasure being surrounded by the beautiful Scenic Rim countryside and living in exceptional comfort at the Gatekeeper's cabin. We had all we needed for a relaxing and enjoying stay that was a real break away from city life. We were exceptionally grateful to bring our dog along on the trip, who love the environment just as much as we did.

Pls put in some LED bulbs 13watt because the ceilings are so high. In the bedroom you wouldn’t know the light was on also in the bathroom dark,check at night. TV instructions for the star system needs to be available for guests. Left sliding front door very difficult to slide.

Relaxing country getaway
Lovely scenic views. The fireplace kept the cottage toasty at night. Google maps took us down the driveway of number 72 which was jncorrect. It was the road adjacent to that driveway.

Quiet country stay with lovely views.
This is a great place for a country stay with plenty of room, a lovely view and a comfy bed. If you enjoy a bit of animal/birdlife then you'll love this place. Cows and horses grazing in paddocks nearby, with bird feeders attracting a variety of local wildlife.
