About this house rental
Please read this description carefully before booking. The base rate for our stunning place includes 2 bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. Please refer to the "Rooms & Spaces" tab for the configuration by bedroom. Each additional bedroom can be booked as you need them. A booking for 6 guests provides 3 bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. A booking for 8 guests provides all 4 bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. Please do not book for 5 or 7 guests as each bedroom sleeps 2 guests and is charged as such. This saves you paying for all 4 bedrooms when you may only need 2 or 3. Please note, we do not provide single beds or single room rates. Those bedrooms not booked remain locked.
We do not charge a cleaning fee, most places do, so please keep this in mind when adding up your total cost.

Weekend stay was amazing, the property is stunning with views of the surrounding landscape and hills. Great location for a group as we did and perfect for day trips to the local breweries & wineries etc. Having ensuite bathroom with every bedroom was ideal.. no waiting on other people for showers.We Loved every minute!

Templewood House was the perfect getaway for our Christmas in July. Upstairs 4 bedrooms each with its own ensuite and comfortable beds. Downstairs a spacious living/ dining area, cosy fireplace and enormous commercial kitchen with a walk-in cold room for a fridge! Electric blankets and heating/cooling in each bedroom.were cosy too. The grounds are picturesque and private. Horse riding is available if you book ahead. Although it's marketed as a wedding venue, it's also well suited for four couples or a girl's pampering retreat. The hosts thought of everything!

We were greeted by Travis (a true gentleman) at the property on our arrival, who proceeded to give us a tour of the property and the facilities. The house is incredibly charming, in a bucolic setting. The horses are visible from the windows and my kids enjoyed visiting them every day. There is a horse riding school further up the driveway, but you will need to book ahead of time as they’re renowned therefore book out quickly. The kitchen is industrial in size and functions perfectly. The tea and coffee station was amply set up. The living area has a few different seating areas which was perfect for our group- the children enjoyed sitting in the lounge, and the adults in front of the fire place. The bedrooms were designed in keeping with the era the house was built in which transports you back to the early 1900’s. The views from the windows upstairs are a great change from simply seeing your neighbours property- instead it’s of large sprawling tree branches and views of the pastures. We very much enjoyed our stay and only wish we had booked a few more nights.
