Lovely manor with owners personal touches. We were very comfortable and looked after well. Beautiful place close enough to Canberra, but far enough out for peace and quiet.

It was beautiful there. They checked on me during the day making sure I was happy with everything. They helped with last minute touches in the set up. It all went really smoothly and the staff were really helpful on the night! W also stayed the night before and the night of the wedding. The accommodation was great, we had Continental breakfast provided, which was quite relaxing. Everything was in the one place and made everything very easy!
