Tipps für Reisende
Verkehrsmittel
Cars are the best way to get around
The area is very secluded even though it is very close to city facilities. It is hidden in the woods and hilly. It is recommended to drive around and always wear shoes with good grip if you would like to walk around/hike.

Wild animals live here/Dangerous landscape
Brush turkey and Australian magpie are common in this area. The gardens are designed to be native animal friendly.
No fences at the backyard and lots of open water streams are for this reason. Please be extra careful if you are walking around in the area or around the property. Some land can be very loose and slippery. Do not enter the area if you see a danger sign.
Mit Kindern reisen
Always keep your kids close to you
Due to the landscape and wild animals, please ensure your kids are close to you.
