A pub true in character, established in 1914. The Country Life Hotel is a classic Australian waterhole, weatherboard exterior, tongue and groove interior, large verandahs, double hung windows, huge hardwood timber top counters, great service, with plenty of room which attracts a myriad of people over the weekends, and settles into a slower more intimate pace weekdays and nights. These two great places are only the beginning of a number of places to visit both locally, and a little further afar.

    We had a great experience and absolutely loved the kitchen and all the amenities. Ian was a fantastic host, he gave us a quick tour of the tent and was easy to communicate with. We're definitely coming back!

    Such a beautiful set up. Absolutely loved our stay. Everything was so comfortable and made for a really relaxing weekend getaway. Not too far from Pomona - had a lovely visit to the weekend markets. Also, the best Thai food in Australia made by Ploen.

    We absolutely loved staying here for the night. We just wish we could have stayed longer. It was so cute and the host, Ian, was very friendly. So private, quiet and beautiful.

    Beautiful spot, almost totally isolated and immersed amongst nature. The stars at night were a treat and the rock pools near by were incredible to relax in. Would definitely recommend
