A beautiful home and gardens

Our family had a great stay at this home for the week leading up to my wedding. A warm house with plenty of rooms and space for my family to spend the week together and beautiful gardens that I was able to get a few wedding photos in.

Hidden gem

Awesome visit - just what we needed. A charming house with great gardens to unwind and relax. Totally secluded but within walking distance to town centre and close to Showgrounds which was a great place to walk the dog! Thanks James for offering any assistance needed!

Abba Festival long weekend

Had a wonderful stay. Enjoyed the strolls in the garden and the hidden treasures with each twist and turn of the paths. When rain threatened and fell on our first night we could still enjoy drinks and BBQ under the back deck and wide verandas. Owner and cleaner communications and help pre-visit were fabulous. Great to have basics like salt and pepper, garbage bags and olive oil in stock. (Missing were dishwasher tablets). If we return for the festival in a couple of years, we will very happily book Wonga again!

Eclectic property

A gracious old family home resonating with personal touches, art, antiques and family treasures. The modern appliances including sound systems in every room made our stay entertaining and intriguing. If a quite read is your choice there is a full library for all ages and subjects Importantly beds and linen were of high quality and cleanliness of the home was without fault. The gardens were mature and filled with fresh fruit and glorious flowering plants with bees and dragonflies Our host was most accomodating for a change of stay due to floods in nearby areas. A five star experience

Old world charm

Great apportunity to immerse yourself in the hustory of Parkes. Extensive garden and spacious house. Care should be taken with uneven flooring for elderly or young. Great for large family gathering with outdoor eating and pool if weather appealing. House was clean and more then comfortable for our stay. Good communication with owner who was more than happy to provide details on how to make our stay more comfortable.

Wonga was a great base for our cycling holiday. 6 bedrooms suited us well, although several of the bedrooms require access from another bedroom.

beautiful haven filled with lovely things

such a gorgeous house and garden. we loved our stay, it was very comfortable and the garden was just divine. More information about the property and its history as well a how to use guide would have been helpful. Also while the house sleeps 12 it is more suitable to families than a group of friends due to the layout of the rooms and bathrooms. That said it was perfect for the five of us and we thoroughly enjoyed it. James was very happy to answer questions and was very helpful, generous and lovely to deal with.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Wonga. Everything was clean and tidy. Our little Tibetan spaniel enjoyed roaming around the garden. There was only the 2 of us, but would be great for larger groups or 2 families.
