Just as the name suggests, “Botanical Hideaway” is a tranquil oasis surrounded by trees, and backing onto the stunning Botanical Gardens. Private and peaceful, the only sound you will hear is that of birds singing. Nestled in the corner of the large sun-deck is the hot tub, which is the perfect spot to relax while the kids make use of the playground and swing-ball in the fully-fenced yard. The out-door area is an entertainers dream – so fire up the BBQ and enjoy the sunshine and privacy!

You can’t look past this spacious home for creating those lasting family memories. Inside and outside, you will find plenty of entertainment and games for both young and old. Everything has been thought of here.

Prime location – simply walk out the back gate and you will be absolutely spoilt for choice with the many wonderful walking tracks in the Botanical Gardens. A lovely spot for a picnic!
The lake is only a short 3 minute drive away, and town centre is at most a 7 minute drive.

Everything you need
We had 7 adults and 2 toddlers and this property had something for everyone - fantastic layout, plenty of space, lots of extras and the kids were well catered for with their own designated play area - a true home away from home with lovely walks on your doorstep.
