Summary: The Old Waukivory School House was such a delight - lots of character, spotlessly clean and very thoughtfully provisioned and appointed. In an age when many hosts don't even bother to leave you with tea or coffee or oil and spices, Katherine has gone out of her way to provide you with everything you could want for your weekend stay - fresh eggs, bread, butter, milk, juice, chocolate, snacks, the list goes on! The house and gardens were beautifully presented, the spa was warm, and the fire was set ready to be lit. Katherine's pride in her cottage and exceptional generosity were very much appreciated as were the wonderful views of the valley and quiet location. Highly recommended!

Summary: Magic spot, lush green views, cows in distant paddocks...Moooing - too relaxing. While the accommodation warms you with an era gone-by. Worth in every way the 3hrs from Sydney drive with half on motorway and half country views. Stroud is worth a stop and via Dugong on way back, don't forget Gloucester mountains.

Summary: We had the best end to a busy 2022 at Katherine’s place. The silence, broken only by the sounds of the farm animals and nature, was spectacular. Katherine’s generous and thoughtful hospitality makes one feel right at home. I aimed to have a cuppa in all the beautiful spots she created, but we’ll have to return to fulfil that. We watched the day arrive from the spa and counted stars next to the fire pit in the evenings. Let’s keep this gem our secret - shhh 🤐

Summary: We had a wonderful relaxing time at the Waukivory School House. It is such a beautiful property with lots to explore, the wide open spaces were heaven for our dog! It was also really special to have chickens and goats on the property to interact with. If you're looking for some R&R this place is perfect!

Summary: The School House at Waukivory is a dream place to stay. Kathy was a great host; very easy to deal with - and very accomodating. The property is set amongst beautiful countryside, but doesn't feel remote. The drive from Gloucester is easy (even in the rain). The bed is comfortable (lovely sheets and doona), the lounge was warm and inviting, and the outside areas were sublime. A view from every angle. And, chickens and goats to keep you amused. It's an easy drive back into town for supplies or coffee. There are two particularly good cafes in Gloucester - The Common (great fruit sourdough and the best hot chocolate) and Roadies (particularly good gluten-free 'muffins' and coffee), and a friendly pub worth having lunch at. Lovey's IGA has everything you'll need; not that you'll need much. Kathy provided bread, cheese, milk, ice cream, tea, coffee, beer and wine, chocolate and lollies ... We had planned to venture out to other towns in the district, but found everything we needed in Gloucester - great walks, places to bike ride, even a local museum. I can highly recommend the School House at Waukivory for a relaxing weekend or extended holiday.
