Corvah House

We thoughly loved our one week stay at Corvah house. Checkin was easy with the door lock system. The garden was beautiful and Pool was excellent and able to be cleaned during our stay (thankyou), House was beautiful as expected, the living areas and 2 of the bedrooms were a bit small but are things that cannot be changed. It was easy to contact the manager of the property regarding some small items which the house needed. Thankyou for a great week.

We were a party of 7 older friends and we had a great stay in this comfortable, historical house. The outside decking overlooking the pool with the flowering wisteria was wonderful after a day sightseeing around Castlenaine and environs

Excellent property

Brilliant property for us as we were 11 family adults for our annual get together. However, the ensuite toilet requires attention as it does not stop running and we had to continually turn the water cystern tap off after each flush. The ensuite basin takes forever to drain which desperately needs attention. The toilet seat in the bathroom is very l oise to almost falling off. We were unable to tighten it sufficiently to keep the seat stable. Apart from these minor repair requirements your property is great. Thankyou

Lovely house

This was a lovely house, which easily caters for groups. Unfortunately the weather didn't lend itself to bbq and pool use, but looks like it would be ideal in summer.

Wonderful historic house - perfect for a a group

This house provided the perfect place for a family reunion. The kids loved the back yard and the pool and the grandparents loved the old world charm. An easy walk into town, to the rail trail and the BMX bike park. Highly recommend!

Wonderful

We had a wonderful weekend, house is great, the pool very clean I would recommend this place.. We had a party of 12 and four were in their late 60's so getting down the stairs to the pool was very difficult as there were no hand rails on the stairs from the outside patio to the pool, as well no hand rail to help you into the pool as well the BBQ was left dirty. We had a problem trying to get the outside fridge working I rang Donna, I was very impressed with the quick service we received. We had to go shopping and Not only was the fridge on and working when we got back it was packed with our drinks.as well.

Wonderful house

We were mesmerised as we entered. Clean and tidy with lots of space. The pool area is such a fun element and the balcony sitting area is delightful for fresh air. The location is great. Close to everything you need.
