Beautiful home and spacious property with so much space .Loved the enclosed garden area for our dog and had fun playing mini put and table tennis.
This place is wonderful place to stay and we will be back!
Great location, easy to find. Stayed there with family for my sons wedding, awesome home!
E Z !! Communication with host was easy, house was immaculate! Welcome pack of fresh bread, wine, fruit was a nice personal touch!! Couldn’t fault the place!! Hope to return one day
Fantastic house to base ourselves in whilst having a weekend away with a group from our sons boarding school. The property has everything you would need. It is very relaxing and we have stayed twice in as many months. Tom is a great host and very generous with the provisions. We look forward to returning.

Lucy and John are great guests who have great respect for our property and left it clean and tidy. We would be thrilled to have them back any time. Highly recommend as guests.
A fabulous house and pet friendly . Our dog loved to run and run in the beautiful large garden . A great place to stay also with the games room inside and the little golf course and table tennis table outside . We will be back
A great property to sit back and relax in. Well located with just a short drive to town centre and tourist attractions. Very clean. Lots of TVs and pool table were a hit. Hosts were very easy to communicate with and very generous with the supplies. We have already booked to return. Highly recommend

Highly recommend Lucy, everything was kept extremely clean and showed obvious respect to our property. We are glad Lucy and family were able to have a restful break and look forward to her return in a few months.
This is a fantastic home in a most beautiful setting. My husband, our two dogs and I really enjoyed our two nights. We invited our friends who are locals for a BBQ and catch up. The place took their breath away! Very clean and comfortable and the delicious fresh bread and local red wine on arrival was a very pleasant surprise. We will certainly be returning guests at some stage in the future.
Home away from home, short stay for a family wedding.
Perfect 2night stay with immediate family for a niece's/cousin’s wedding. A super generous sized house with everything necessary for a relaxing and stress free couple of days away from home. Added touches included fresh fruit, bread, wine, yoghurt, cereal, jam, butter, juice and milk. Even a high chair for the baby. Beautifully decorated without being too fussy, quality sheets and towels and appliances. Renmark was very busy on the weekend as it was a long weekend. However it was very quiet where we were located. The house is on a good sized block of land, perfect for the 2 year old to play outside safely (supervised) In my opinion, better than described!

Thank you for your lovely review. We hope you are able to return again some day soon. You were the perfect guests.
The house is beautifully appointed, with new and coordinated furniture and every mod con provided. The layout of the house, along with the games room and outdoor area, means the house would comfortably accomodate a large family or 2 families. The kitchen is generously stocked and very comfortable to cook in. The gardens are beautiful and meticulously tended, and the unexpected addition of a 9 hole mini golf course, table tennis and pool table were great fun. But what makes this property stand out is the attention to detail and the extra touches- we entered after a long drive to find a loaf of fresh bread, a generous selection of spreads, milk, juice and a bottle of wine, which was so welcoming. The hosts are attentive and very easy to contact - I sent them an sms and within 2 minutes Sally was on the phone. We will definitely be back!
From the warm greeting from Tom to the welcome pack we felt at home immediately. This property meets the highest standards. It is spacious, well equipped and surrounded by lovely gardens. Though we were the only two residents this house would comfortably accommodate 8 people. We would recommend this place wholeheartedly.
Lovely, clean and well equipped Paringa house. Perfect for a weekend or week away. Our dogs loved explored the grounds, will be great when gate can make it fully enclosed!
The house was very clean and well appointed and in a quiet neighbourhood. Very easy to relax in with a comfortable bed and main lounge. Nice outdoor area with plenty of cover. Made good use of the pool table. The host was easy to liaise with.
The property was immaculate in presentation and well appointed with everything we needed. Would make a great location for a family getaway with lots of room and entertainment options. Would recommend highly.
Whether you’re looking for a retreat to get away from it all or somewhere to base yourself in between day trips, the Shamrock Luxury Retreat is ideal.
We stayed in the winter months so it was lovely to be welcomed by a warming fire, a gorgeous bottle of red wine and a loaf of bread.
The rooms are of such generous proportions, you could easily go with friends or kids, spread out, do your own thing and not get in each other’s way.
We would happily stay here again, we had a great time.
This stay was one of the best experiences I have had at a holiday rental. The house was stunning and the pictures don’t do it justice. The house easily sleeps four adults and is great for families. The service from the hosts were unfaultable. The location is also perfect. Would definitely recommend for a getaway with friends or a family vacation.
Great location.
Very generous with supplies.
Well stocked with great appliances and has everything you would need.
Home from home.
Comfortable beds,
very high standard of cleanliness.
Whole process was easy. Great communication
And the Gardens were just beautiful!
Beautiful house, very clean, plenty of room (we had 4 adults and 4 children). There was complimentary milk, yogurt, bread, spreads, cereal etc that was a very nice touch. Tom was very accommodating and took us for a tour of the house on arrival and explained everything to us. Would highly recommend!

We really enjoyed the stay at this property. It was exactly as it was listed on the website. Property was kept clean, with plenty of space internally and also good space for outdoor fun activities. Bikes available were good for some good family fun time and the property manager Tom was very helpful with any clarifications and requests we had. It's proximity to Remark Town Centre was also helpful. Overall a very enjoyable holiday at this property.
