We needed a beautiful property for my Son's Wedding. One that would accomodate family members and Groomsmen. Hollyford House was perfect. Well equipped and very spacious. We will be staying here again.

Girls' Getaway!
On the first weekend of April 2022, 8 Mums from Sydney enjoyed our annual girls' getaway at Hollyford House. The house is exactly as depicted in the photos, in fact, the outside of the house belies how lovely it is inside. The decor and furnishings are beautiful and have a luxurious feel. We particularly enjoyed the large kitchen (with 2 dishwashers!), the fireplace, and the fact there was plenty of space for everyone to do their own thing. Highly recommended!

Lovely stay
This was a brilliant house & property, perfect for our group of 10. Loved the fireplace and atrium layout. The kitchen is well equipped and we had a wonderful time. Only issue we had was with the BBQ (drip tray caught on fire a couple times) but otherwise it was perfect.
