We chose this house for a large family gathering and it was an absolute dream. There was more than enough space for everyone to relax together or find a quiet corner when needed — the layout really is ideal for groups. The fact that every bedroom has its own adjoining bathroom made the whole trip so much smoother and stress-free; that detail alone is worth its weight in gold when you're traveling with a crowd.The house is warm, cozy, and beautifully kept — exactly what you want on a cold weekend away. Everything felt thoughtfully arranged, clean, and comfortable from the moment we arrived. There's a real homey charm to the place that made it easy to settle in and just enjoy being together.We left already talking about coming back. If you're planning any kind of group trip or family reunion, look no further — this place checks every box.

It was a pleasure hosting Melina's group. They made full use that what the property has to offer and it was lovely seeing young and old strolling through the gardens, playing on the basketball court or going for a walk along the creek.
The house was left in a very clean and tidy state and communication was easy and effective. We can highly recommend Melina and her family as perfect guests.
Excellent condition of the house, very pristine, quiet and in a secluded farm area. The hosts were very considerate, for example, they left enough firewood for the campfire. I would recommend anyone with a big group to stay here.
We stayed at the property as part of a corporate off-site, and we were very pleased with the location. We were able to hold different meetings in parallel, and the games room was a great way to have fun. I highly recommend the Farmstead.

Thank you for your kind words and we are very happy to hear that your off-site was successfull and that you had plenty of space to have parallel meetings. Since your stay we completed another dedicated meeting space in a different building on the property, so please keep that in mind if you were considering booking another off-site at Glenlowren. All the best and we hope to welcome you back at some stage.
We had a terrific stay at the Farmstead. We were a group of 6 families with kids and it was perfect - lots of space, awesome basketball court, and a serene location away from roads and traffic. The house was spotless and the facilities are amazing- kitchen had everything you could need and beds were so comfortable. We would love to come back one day. The hosts were first class with their communication and made it’s such an easy getaway for us all. Thank you!!!
We had the most wonderful family celebration at Glenlowren’s farmstead. We could not fault out stay! The house is beautifully renovated, has an abundant of amazing spaces to gather as a family of 20 and had all the creature comforts we’d hoped for. Thank you to Tinne and Peter for a magnificent stay. We will be back and I will recommend to all our friends!
