communities and has been lovingly developed by a small army of volunteers.

many of the 2000 species of plants, trees and shrubs of the region.

lizards, frogs and many birds. Features include display gardens, walking

birding [or as a base camp for anything

Being
able to sit on the deck and feed the uncaged birds was very special
for me. The drive to see the kangaroos will never be forgotten. |

Thank
you for "The Bower", such a beautiful setting and

Driving
in at night, I felt the magic of the cycads. Walking into this
beautiful retreat, we both grinned & here we are … waiting
for our spa – like excited little kids, hiding away in a
perfect getaway with the frogs serenading us. |

Had
a fantastic time. Got terrorised by an insolent goanna, but still
enjoyed the scenery, spa, birds, barbeque and that heartwarming
gameboy noise you get when you open the dishwasher. Really, really
don't want to leave - Thanks Sue & Mark. |

Such
a lovely setting for our taste of modern luxury. Loved the trees,
birds, cycads & the kookaburra wake-up call. Our 4wd morning
with Oz-Trek made it even more memorable. All the good wishes
for a great future. Thankyou so much. [BBQ was super !] |

What
can we say … this incredible place was the ideal home for
these few days. Surrounded by the wonders of nature allowed us
to escape from the bustle from the city. It's the serenity of
the bush combined with the contemporary cabins of the city. WE
LOVED IT ! Thanks Sue & Mark for a wonderful time. XX |

We
loved not seeing another person [even though you had other guests]
TOTAL PRIVACY & RELAXATION. The birds are brilliant and if
you are patient enough they will even eat out of your hands. Wallabies
and Possums emerge at night, while we toasted in front of a log
fire. It was all GREAT! We are now out to purchase a new DOUBLE
SPA for ourselves at home. |
