The host was responsive and easy to get along with when messaging. No linen at all in the house was hard on packing just for a few nights away. Have to bring ALL linen, renege to include tea towels, hand and foot towelsThe property was lovely, massive grassed land and great playground was appreciated. Walk to the river, so pretty and property attached with alpacas to visit over the fence was enjoyed! Great outdoor sitting areas! We'd stay again!

Hi Robyn,
Thank you for your review!
I am glad you enjoyed your stay & we look forward to hosting you in the future.
We had a great stay at Silkwood on the Goulburn, with almost anything you could need/want in an accomodation.Also very handy having the pub walking distance away.The only negative comment would be that you have to take all your own linen and towels, as for the price, we felt this should have been included.

Thanks Amanda for your review, we are glad you enjoyed your stay.
The house is beautifully located, with river access and well-maintained grounds. Lots of room for everyone, kids loved the games room, comfortable beds and kitchen well equipped.
We spent a wonderful family weekend and would love to have had a few more days.
Great place for a family holiday. The house has many rooms that catered for my group well. The kids loved the play area. The land backs on to the lovely Goulburn River. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Hi Chloe,
Thank you for this review. It is much appreciated.
Kind regards, Nutrien Harcourts Alexandra.
We had a fantastic time at Silkwood with four families and a big group of kids. Lots to do on the property and the scenery is magical. Having the river right there and lots of space for the kids to run and play in was amazing. We had a great time.

Hi Vivien, It is lovely to hear you had an enjoyable stay. Thankyou.
Fantastic place to stay in a big house with mates, bikes and trailers well off the main road, out of site and safe. Second time we have stayed. Highly recommend and will be back again next year.

Beautiful location, with lots of room for kids to play and explore. We had 10 adults and 7 children staying. Ample room. A few minor things about the place such as having to pay extra for linen, but overall, a lovely weekend and would high recommend.

This was a great place to have a Christmas family gathering. Plenty of space in the house and the outside space and surrounding property were great. As it was hot we were able to cool down in the river which could be accessed from the property

Great for large groups.
We had a great stay. The property is a fantastic size and space for a large group (we had 4 families) house was very clean just quite a few cob webs and daddy long legs about. Better access to river would be fantastic but understand owner may not have option to do that.

Hi Leah, thank you for your review, we are glad you enjoyed your stay at SILKWOOD.
The house is so big and roomy.. we went with friends and our kids and no one could fault this place. The short walk down to the river was great, and the playground was awesome! We had two minor issues, which we were advised would be fixed asap. We loved this place and have already re booked this property again.

Hi Sarah,
Thank you for your wonderful review.
We are excited to have you again in future!
Location was amazing, little bit disappointed with the dam being a bit yucky and the tv in the games room not working with the foxtel or the amplifier but apart from that everyone was in good working order, only thing missing which I’m not even sure it has to provided was a first aid kit
Overall experience was great would recommend
