Sorry you had difficulties, the gate operation is fairly easy if the instructions are read. Not sure what problem you had wit the shower tap but it is working fine and I haven't had anyone mention it. It is a mixer tap and it works perfectly fine.

The Bower, Kandos

This is a neat and cosy small space, very comfortable and interestingly decorated. It's really good value for the price. The host was exceptionally helpful, and went out of his way to help us with a problem we had. Highly recommended.

Small and comfortable

This is a comfortable place to stay. It has one main room which contains a kitchen, a table with two chairs, a lounge and the bed. It is good value for the money. My review ratings try to be consistent and very rarely allocate a 5. Any that I give a 3 rating is good and am happy to stay there again.

Excellent! Everything you need!

My partner and I stayed here for 2 nights. It was great, the space is cosy and has everything you need for a short stay. An ensuite with a shower has recently been added to the hideout which is fantastic. Everything was clean and well maintained. Very convenient location if you are looking to explore the area (we walked around the town, drove to Dunns Swamp at the National Park and visited Rylestone. We would recommend this accommodation to other travellers. Thanks Shawn, it was good to meet you.
