The absolute quiet country location was excellent. The facilities were above expectations and the hosts could not be more helpful. The only problem was trying to leave before the 10 am check out. Will stay longer next time.

Spent a very relaxing afternoon and evening in the Bower Cottage at Kiwarrak Country Retreat. The grounds were lovely and the cottage was beautifully presented with everything you could possibly need as well as many thoughtful extras. Particularly enjoyed the spa and the log fire. We will definitely return.

Quiet comfortable retreat.

A beautiful, well maintained quiet place to stay. A fairy walk for the kids was a nice touch. Toys and books for the kids also made the kids day. Beautiful decor, and a lovely little find. I would definitely stay again.
