House has a great layout, clean & everything needed was included. Property was beautiful & nice and quiet. Owners very easy to deal with and lovely people. Definitely would stay there again.
Our stay at Lavinia's property was wonderful. The accommodation is first class with so many thoughtful inclusions offering a superior level of comfort.
It is close to the main attractions in the area.
And Lavinia's helpfulness in communication prior to our visit was especially welcome.
We had a lovely stay in Lavinia's stunning countryside home.
Our children loved running in the big back yard and exploding the orchard.
The home was warm, clean and beautifully styled. I loved all the original paintings on the wall, especially the rockpools.
We would love to stay again one day.

About the host
Hosted by Lavinia Zammit
Hi my name is Lavinia and with my husband Matthew created a garden for supplying ingredients for my small business called Lavinia Botanica While doing this we started hosting overseas asian tourists for the last 10 years and loved it.
Why they chose this property
The town of Thirlmere is not known. We are situated close to Picton, 30-45 min from Camden, Campbelltown, Wollongong, Mittagong and Bowral. We are 1.5 hrs away from Sydney. We are semi-rural and we have abundance of native animals. I created a relaxing atmosphere in the cottage so you can refresh and recharge your batteries. Come and experience the amount of bird life on the property.

Access to swim spa is from 8 am to 7 pm (heated all year round), extensive gardens and barbeque. Guests can wonder around the 5 acreas property.
