Bowhill Weekender
Awesome house with great interior design. Location is excellent. For older/reduced mobility users, could do with ramp access. We had a great stay there.

Bowhill Stay!
Was a lovely stay, with a lovely property and a lovely renovated house. We didn’t like the location of the microwave though (up a bit too high.)

Gorgeous Getaway
The weekender is a fantastic place for a getaway. Being a 2 minute walk from the river and a 2 minute walk to the general store, it's in a prime location. The house was lovely and clean and lived up to everything in the listing. The check in and out processes were nice and simple too which was good! All in all, it's the perfect spot for a weekend away!
