Cooinda, A 3 Bedroom Home Near Mayfield Garden

The location was beautiful. The gardens were nicely done and there were interesting quirky figurines all through the gardens.

We wish we had brought our own drinking water as we chose to boil the tank water just in case. Just a small thing.

Heating - required additional payment for bags of firewood. There is plenty of firewood available in nearby forests that could have been cut to size of a tool were available. Getting keys from lockbox required a coded which was on my phone, however I had to turn around and drive back into Oberon to get reception to access the code. then drive back again to open the door. Possibly a few too many laminated sheets of instructions around the house?

The place is lovely, it has almost everything you need for a short holiday in a country. It is home away from home. It is clean, comfortable and has good facilities..

The house provides almost everything that we would need as a holiday house. However, I missed the note that the water from tap was rain water. I had just finished my treatments (health problem) and the water caused some irritations on my skin, Luckily I brought antihistamine with me and afterwards boiled the water that would touch my skin from then on and bought bottled water for drinking. Also, the location is alright except that the Great Western Hi-way was partly closed and the detour was unpaved road through the mountains which was very difficult.

Stunning setting, short distance to town, beautiful views
