FAMILY FUN

Our family holiday was enhanced by this property. Its arrangement of spaces, both indoors and out, provided us with the opportunities to really enjoy each others’ company. Very comfortable bedrooms, bathrooms and a great pool. Being pet friendly was also a big advantage, Thankyou Lucy and Graham.

Fantastic

This house has everything you could need. Very comfortable beds (best we've had at a holiday house). Lots of bathrooms. Well equipped and spacious kitchen. Four separate sitting areas. Great location. Amazingly, no mozzies. Three generations loved it.

Annual Family Get-together

We are a large family requiring a substantial property. The house had plenty of space for everyone and was very well - equipped. A few issues related to wear and tear given the property’s age but Graham and Lucy were always available to help.

Spacious and comfortable

There was plenty of room for three families with various living areas meaning everyone could enjoy their own space if needed. The kitchen was well equipped and spacious. The driveway area was great for the kids to ride bikes amd scooters and we used the grass area for a game of cricket. Within close proximity to the house are various hazards for children including old rotting decks, unsecured fuels and equipment, elevated planks and unsecured storage of potentially dangerous goods. There was also a faulty pool gate latch which meant it didn’t close automatically and our 3 year old entered the pool area alone. I would not recommend this property for young children until all of the dangers are removed.

A wonderful stay!

We had a great stay - the perfect location for a birthday celebration. Great set-up for our party out around the pool area, and the ability to have a lovely morning dip in the pool and BBQ the next day was a bonus. Highly recommend!

A beautiful holiday sanctuary

We had a wonderful week with our extended family here. The location is beautiful, being just a short drive to the CBD and beaches but private and with a gorgeous outlook surrounded by trees. There was plenty of space both in the house and outside for the kids to play, and it had all the amenities we needed. We all enjoyed the pool, and the donkey was such a highlight for the kids and helped make the stay truly memorable. We would love to come back one day.

Family holiday

Just spent a week a Fern ridge for a extended family holiday. The house is great, plenty of room for everyone to have their space. The setting is beautiful, so peaceful and quiet, yet so close to Coffs, and plenty of activities. Lucy and Graham were super hosts, easy to communicate with and nothing was a bother. Can definitely recommend this house, we are all keen to go back!
