Located on a 35 ha properties outside of Clare are three self-contained forms of accommodation.
Glen Morris is a two bedroom mud brick cottage that has a truly old world feel about it, yet is comfortably furnished with a delightful setting overlooking big craggy old gum trees which line the creek immediately below.
Cathy’s Cottage has a heritage-style interior with one double bedroom, cosy living room with Mintaro slate floors, baltic pine dining table, pot-belly stove, separate bathroom and separate kitchen with full size gas oven and a secluded back patio with barbecue.
The largest dwelling on the 80-acre property, Bronte Manor offers peace, privacy and character accommodation in exquisite surroundings . Perched on high ground with 360 degree views of undulating hills and trees, Bronte Manor is Wuthering Heights’ newly renovated accommodation: a grand, yet rustic mud brick house exuding charm and character.
Breakfast provisions are generous and the local area offers a great selection of choice wines and other delicacies.
Well behaved are made welcome by mine host, Ted Nettelton with whom you should discuss bringing your pets before booking. Dogs are permitted inside with approval. Due to the fact the property is on large unfenced acreage, dogs may need to be supervised when outside without a leash.
DAA comment: Delightful, serene and unspoilt. |
