5 Star Property
Lumley House was the perfect choice for our recent stay in Bright, the property was very well presented, clean and roomy for our group of 6 adults (3 couples). Lumley House conveniently located within walking distance of Bright CBD. The lock up garage was perfect for secure bike storage. We could not fault this property and will stay again, next time during summer to take advantage of the pool, outdoor BBQ facilities and fire pit. A stunning property and great communication with host Linda. Thank You.

Spectacular
What an amazingly well kept house with all the amenities you need and more! We were a group of 7 and there was plenty of space for all of us. It was such a beautiful home and Pip was a fantastic host, quick to communicate and graciously refunded us when one guest pulled out. I've already recommended this place to friends as the ideal accommodation in Bright. Thanks for a perfect weekend Pip and Lumley House.

A Brilliant Home for large families & Groups of Great friends!
We were a large group of friends that had a wonderful stay. The bedding configuration was flexible and comfortable. The house was immaculate and the photos do not do it justice - there was plenty of space for everyone. The walk to the centre of Bright was beautiful and took just minutes - make sure you cut across the foot bridge over the river, as you pop out in the centre of Bright - rather than go the long away around on the road. A memorable stay for us all - Thanks Pip.
