Spa under the stars
Lovely cosy house with heaps of space. Had a wonderful stay and the rain didn’t bother us with the roaring log burner and spa outside. Stars were magnificent when the sky was clear. A couple of nice walks in the bush nearby too. WiFi was excellent.

Lovely weekend escape!
We had a wonderful girls weekend in Mt Lyford, staying in this lovely log lodge. Everything was as advertised and a lovely location.
Communication with Claudine was exceptional and we would definitely consider staying with Mt Lyford Holiday Homes again.

Weekend away
The house was absolutely gorgeous and the scenery was spectacular. Great communication with the property manager but would suggest some signs or reminders explaining the hot water situation as a guest was burnt while having a shower. The property manager was sympathetic and acknowledged the situation which we were thankful for. Overall, we all enjoyed our stay.

Great for Families
We had two families with young kids with us and found it a great place to stay! They loved the green grass and trampoline and we loved the space, the spa and the amenities available. Would love to stay again! The host was amazing too. Great place, thank you :)
