Such an amazing property and will definitely be back! We had a blast and the kids absolutely loved the animal feeding. So much to do on the property for adults and children that you won’t need to leave for the duration of the stay. We had a large group of family stay and there was plenty of room for everyone! The hosts were great to deal with and they even offered assistance during our stay if we needed anything booked etc. I’m so glad we had the experience of staying here and honestly can’t wait to get back next year!

Sutherland Downs Retreat exceeded all expectations and gave us the most memorable Father and Son getaway we could have imagined. From the moment we arrived, it felt like the perfect mix of comfort, adventure, and relaxation.

On top of that, meeting and feeding the friendly goats, horses, ponies, and co... read more

Great experience all round with so much fun to be had with all the games room activities on hand as well as lots of relaxing in the beautiful scenery and spa. Our group found it perfect to celebrate a mile-stone birthday and be close to excellent surf beaches and come back to a cosy home fire, games and large kitchen to cook up a feast. Then wake up in the morning to views and animals. Plenty of space for us all, we even had a pilates session in the studio.

Sutherland Downs Retreat is an absolute gem! Tucked away in the peaceful countryside, it’s the perfect spot to unwind. The rooms are beautifully designed—super cozy and inviting, making it feel like a home away from home. Our host was incredibly warm and attentive, making the stay even better. We had our extended family staying together, and it was the ideal setup. There was plenty to do to keep all ages entertained, and the space was so well-designed that we never felt cramped. A great side note: there was a power outage ... read more

We absolutely loved our stay at Sutherland Downs. Can’t recommend highly enough! Pros: expansive views over Wallis Lake, stress-melting wood-fired hot tub and pool; ample space for our extended family; the joy on our kids’ faces as they fed the miniature horses, donkey, goats, sheep and cows; the boredom eradicating selection of kids books and games; and the fun-filled rumpus room overflowing with sports equipment. Cons: having to wave goodbye at the end of our stay!
