Description
We are a loud, fun and just a little bit messy family of 5 (Mum, Dad, + a 21 year old, 18 year old & 10 year old). We love our large home in the Blue mountains and happy to share a room with talented travellers - we offer a cute private studio (as pictured) with lounge, double bed and sink. Access to full bathroom inside main house. There are a lot of gardening projects we have and would love for you to be creative and share gardening ideas. We do have 2 dogs & 2 cats, and a pond full of fish (they add to the fun & messy part).
