50th Wedding Anniversary Getaway

Enjoyed our stay at Gatekeepers. Very quiet, clean and perfect accomodation for our getaway enjoying the beautiful views across the valley. Loved sitting on the verandah whilst the bird life visited morning & evening and the horses reached out for a loving pat. I could watch the cattle grazing everyday (but then wait) adventure awaited in the faraway mountains with endless mountain streams running beneath the forest canopies a bushwalkers paradise. Thankyou Craig for allowing us to enjoy your piece of paradise.

The perfect escape

It was an absolute pleasure being surrounded by the beautiful Scenic Rim countryside and living in exceptional comfort at the Gatekeeper's cabin. We had all we needed for a relaxing and enjoying stay that was a real break away from city life. We were exceptionally grateful to bring our dog along on the trip, who love the environment just as much as we did.

What a cute farm stay, my daughter loved the horses and cattle. Great place if you are keen to disconnect. We would’ve been very happy with wifi as very limited phone service. A fantastic stay though, very enjoyable.

Mr Brian Lewis

Pls put in some LED bulbs 13watt because the ceilings are so high. In the bedroom you wouldn’t know the light was on also in the bathroom dark,check at night. TV instructions for the star system needs to be available for guests. Left sliding front door very difficult to slide.

Relaxing country getaway

Lovely scenic views. The fireplace kept the cottage toasty at night. Google maps took us down the driveway of number 72 which was jncorrect. It was the road adjacent to that driveway.

Quiet country stay with lovely views.

This is a great place for a country stay with plenty of room, a lovely view and a comfy bed. If you enjoy a bit of animal/birdlife then you'll love this place. Cows and horses grazing in paddocks nearby, with bird feeders attracting a variety of local wildlife.
