Australian Homestead

The room looked out over the neighbouring pastures, parking availability.

The heating didn't work properly, not great when it's -2/-3 degrees outside!. The room was not cleaned properly, lots of dust on top of surfaces and the large gap under the door made the room cold and drafty. There was large crack in the base of the shower/bath which caused rust to come up when someone had a shower, was uncomfortable under foot and prevented the bath itself from being used, the skylight also had a crack in it. No heating in the bathroom. Very hard to regulate the shower temperature, either scalding or cold. The bar fridge shelf was broken and frozen over. A toaster and kettle were provide however there were no plates/bowls or cutlery. Breakfast is not available till 7.30am. We were there for State Hockey Championships and had to be at the fields by 7.30am some mornings making it impossible for the kids to have breakfast before they played. Perhaps when there are sporting occasions like this running over 3 days, breakfast could be started an hour earlier just for that period. Especially when one of the reasons the accommodation has been chosen is because breakfast was included.
