Summary: The Kendall Rectory is a special spot. The house is beautiful, the gardens are spectacular, and the verandah is a cosy spot to sit in the sun and relax, even in the winter. The new cooker is fabulous and the coffee machine makes fantastic coffee. My second stay and it won't be my last.

Summary: Wow! Our family had a long weekend at the Kendall Rectory and wished it could have been longer. The house was a historical beauty, absolutely full of old world charm and just so gorgeous! It was very comfortable with plenty of space, peace and quiet. Every room was perfect and each bedroom had a stunning view to wake up too! The gardens and views were simply amazing, with a comfortable verandah to sit back and enjoy the serenity. We can't thank Sue enough, she was the perfect host! We had everything we needed and more. The little town of Kendall is so quaint, with wonderful cafes, an old book store and not far from beaches and restaurants too. Such a wonderful discovery, a delightful Gem!

Summary: The property was beautiful - lovely old building, beautiful verandahs and spacious and inviting garden. As we were working in the locality, there also was plenty of space for us to work in the evening. Unfortunately, the work also meant we didn't have as much time to enjoy the ambience of the property, or pleasant breakfast/coffee on the verandahs.The kitchen also was very well set up - everything you could want.

Summary: The property was absolutely delightful. My wife and I stayed there with both sons, their lovely wives and our 3 gorgeous grandchildren. It was a superb layout that provided our own spaces as well as places to share time together. The host has done a brilliant job in creating something very special! A truly wonderful time had by all!!

Summary: Our stay was beautiful, the house was the perfect size for us all, the kitchen and dining room accommodated us all for sit down dinners. just a beautiful atmosphere to be in. It was raining unfortunately so we did not get much time outdoors, but the outdoor areas were large and child appropriate.

Summary: Great place to stay

Kirrily D. Jan 6, 2025 05:20:42 PM

Summary: The accommodation was historically beautiful and tastefully decorated but modern in appliances. Beautifully located with gorgeous grounds, The Rectory was a place of peace. Multiple bedrooms and gorgeous outdoor spaces made it perfect for us and our adult family and partners to holiday together. The location is within driving distance to walks, waterfalls, river and beach activities as well as dining and shopping.

Summary: We had an amazing stay at the rectory, it has so much character and beautiful grounds, the hammock was a real highlight! Our group of friends had such a relaxing time at the house and had no problems travelling to local beaches to cool off! We had a few minor issues (mostly r.e. cleanliness) while we were there, but Sue was receptive to our feedback and easy to communicate with throughout the process. The house did get a bit warm on hotter days, but there are ceiling fans in each room. If you’re particularly sensitive to heat and planning on staying in summer, we’d recommend bringing a pedestal fan or two to supplement! Overall, we had a lovely stay and would like to thank Sue for having us!
