Escape to Mount Rumney Positive: Escape at Mount Rumney escapes, a beautiful location with comfortable accommodation and stunning views. Amazing wildlife and friendly farm animals. 15-minute drive to great shops and 25 min to city. We loved our stay, and the diversity of birds is awesome 👌 take binoculars. It was quiet, relaxing, and rejuvenating to be surrounded by God's country. Negative: I can't fault Mount Rumney Escapes

It could improve in everything, it would be a very exotic place to return. Positive: I want to do this so that the overall conditions improve, such as cleanliness, and also because the access is a bit difficult due to the road. I don't mean to upset anyone, but these are criticisms that will help improve things, because the place is good since it's in the middle of nature. Negative: The house was generally very dirty. I had to buy a spray to mask the strong smell of the beds, but it only made things worse due to the dust and lack of cleaning. In the kitchen and bathroom, I asked for more toilet paper and they never responded; the oven was only covered with aluminum foil, but it was clear it had never been cleaned. The outdoor trash can was overflowing.

Positive: The cabin was amazing, secluded and amazing views, honestly couldn't have asked for a nicer place to get away. Everything we could have wanted was provided, and they even have a delivery service for those inclined to use it. Will be back again, know that much for sure.

It was perfectly adequate and good value for money Positive: It was a cute cottage. My grandson liked the ‘ships cabin’ bunk bedroom 🙂 Negative: The gravel road was a bit of a shock first time we did it but after that it was ok🙂

Do not book Platypus Cabin Positive: Location was nice and close to city Negative: There only animals were angry dogs and scared sad looking sheep and a couple of wallabies.It smelt like mold and cigarettes and was incredibly dirty. There was only half a roll of toilet paper doe 4 people for 2 nights. In checking out, police arrived to conduct a search warrant of the property.
