Thankyou for such an amazing stay at Balnagowa. This property was a breath of fresh air for us, the gardens were stunning and seemed to just go on forever, we really appreciated the ease of checking in, and checking out, and found the host was more than willing to help us in any way, and attended to any concerns we had regarding this process. We were welcomed with all the little touches that make a holiday so special, and definitely would recommend this beautiful property to anyway wanting a stunning getaway in the Southern Highlands, we hope to return again in the near future.Warmest RegardsChris Willis
