Traveller ReviewsKananook Heritage House is charming, historic accommodation equipped with everything you need for a very comfortable stay. We loved the personal touch of fresh flowers and Easter eggs on our arrival (we stayed for the Easter long weekend). The wooden deck at the back of the cottage is perfect for sundowners and overlooks nearby farmlands. Highly recommend this tastefully furnished, beautiful cottage for your next getaway!
Had a lovely Stay in the 1880s ‘Private Residence’ FSC Apartment Villa for four nights between Christmas and New Year. Enjoyed a morning walk to the Picnic Point Reserve and the Mitchell River and also the local cafes in Bairnsdale and Paynesville. Air conditioning kept us cool on the 40 degree day! I have just spent 6 nights staying at this gorgeous 1880s Private Residence ‘ FSC Apartment Villa (home-away-from-home) place. The Heritage home is adorned with very high ceilings .. it felt spacious the moment I walked in and this was extended to the installation of a large window wall that overlooked the back verandah and brought the outside in! Upon arrival I walked in to a beautiful bunch of flowers on the table so instantly I just felt the warmth of a home. Suzanne, (the host) was most hospitable in every way, she looked after any of my needs and even went as far to have had a bottle of wine dropped into my fridge on day 2 should I have had a tough day at work. The surrounding areas are visually beautiful, great walking track along the Mitchell River is only minutes away, it's 7 minutes to drive to town yet it's super quiet with lots of birds sounds and serenity to enjoy. I slept soundly every night … maybe this is due to a very comfortable memory bed - To be truthful I was a little sad to leave this place - for anyone considering this as accommodation it comes so highly recommended by me, I couldn't fault it … I just hope I can find another reason to go back and stay one day. If you make a booking, you won't be disappointed. Karen (Melbourne) |
