Dear Helen and Rex,
I called at your door last Sunday as we were departing but as no answer I am taking this opportunity to thank you for your excellent facility which significantly contributed to our most enjoyable weekend. The spaciousness and warmth of "The White House" delightful setting-especially the Daphne and blossom's and wonderfully equipped kitchen made for a great stay. We took advantage of the kitchen and bought the Healesville pasta for dinner on Saturday night.
This was a 17th weekend away for our group of first cousins and one which will hold very positive memories. To complete our stay we visited the Tarrawarra Art Gallery and lunched at Yering Station in the cafe above the Tasting Centre before heading back to our other "world's". Thank you for a wonderful weekend.

What a wonderful home!
What great hospitality!
What excitement for the kids in feeding the animals.
We loved every minute of this great home and the autumn leaves outside on the stunning garden and mushrooms we desperately wanted to find and eat.
Helen, you are just so good with the kids and the home is luxury away from home.
Thanks so much for everything.

Arrived late to a well lit up beautiful home. Welcoming and with a warm fire. Couldn't find "Obama"
This is our 36th year of "May long weekends" away as a group. Great friendships, memories, laughs and tears, shared over long breakfasts, morning teas, lunches, dinners and drinks. What a life!!
We thoroughly enjoyed sharing this lovely home and take home, once again, a smile on our faces (and us girls have some "shopping trophies").
Breakfasts and Beds fantastic!!!

Thank you Helen and Rex for your dedication and commitment to creating an oasis in this land of bush, bushfires, scorching sun and ruggedness. Such a glorious pocket of tranquillity, colour and fauna. Nature beat and triumphed over the TV with the kids!! Hooray.

Thank you for providing such a wonderful century offering every creature comfort and such warm hospitality.

Absolutely divine! Tastefully decorated with all the little luxuries that make the place special. Just gorgeous waking up the bird's and of course Jefferson's "I'm so left out you must want to include me" look. Best of luck. You have a very special part of the world.
