Amazing, ethereal and natural!

Relaxing. Tastefully decorated. High ceilings gave it that open and welcoming vibe. Connected to outdoors. Fantastic welcome pack!

The house was so spacious, clean and had everything that you would need for a girls weekend, multiple family getaways or friendship groups. Kangaroos every morning, and a huge variety of birds in the trees and on the grounds. There are football fields of open space for a walk around or outdoor family activities. The fireplace is tranquil and in an ideal spot for laughs and conversing. The bathrooms are huge and the spa bath is such a treat for a night time or a day soak with a view. Plenty of spaces to do our make up or facial routines with vanity stations and great natural light. We added on some massages as a treat and the massage therapists were incredibly professional and made everyone feel very relaxed. I personally was so relaxed my voice went down a few octives after and I did request if my massage therapist could come home with me but of course that would not be fair to others, so I highly recommend booking an in house in treatment aswell. Overall an exceptional place to celebrate coming into my 40's and Damien was very accomodating to help make it a super special birthday weekend. I think it does not need to be said but I will definitely book again .

Weekend gateway

I loved the location, peaceful out of town if you really want time to yourselves, no noise. The house is big and can accommodate a group or family and also fully equipped with everything you may need in the kitchen. Damien was welcoming, and gave us a prepared snack hamper, that was kind of him.

We really enjoyed the stay — the place was lovely, comfortable, and in a great setting.

We really loved our stay at Arinya. The space was beautiful, peaceful, and very comfortable, and the weather made it even more enjoyable. Everything was well kept and thoughtfully set up, which made our time there really relaxing.

"Oh, the serenity"

Beautiful house inside and out. The house itself was so clean, spacious and we had everything we needed. The beds were so comfortable. You are surrounded by the most beautiful scenery and wildlife in the most peaceful secluded setting. We couldn't fault it. Would recommend and will definitely be back.

Perfect retreat in the countryside 💚

Stayed with a big group of girlfriends for the weekend. We loved the house, the big open fire, the property and land surrounding it. Damien is a wonderful host and left a gorgeous hamper for us on arrival. We booked in house massages and had dinner delivered through a caterer recommended by Damien. Can’t recommend more. Just wish we could have stayed longer!! Thanks Damien :)

Spectacular location and property which makes for an enjoyable stay

We received a lovely little hamper of local goodies on arrival. The house was beautifully designed and very unique. We loved sitting by the beautiful fireplace which, might I add, had the kindling and logs already set up for us to light on arrival. Our host was friendly and very helpful. We had a friendly visit by his beautiful cat who, I must warn you, will want to be admitted, patted, and fed...! We didn't mind though because we like cats.
