Collins Retreat - 4 Bedroom home with Pool

Exquisitely furnished in a Victorian style, but undeniably modern with every convenience possible, this palace is the ultimate in luxury escapes.

The enormous house could keep you entertained by itself for months. A rumpus room complete
with a pool/air hockey table, elevated chess board and full size flat-screen TV only begins the inside
activities. For the more sedate, a plush living room adjoins the main living area with electric wood
heater and wall-mounted TV, flanked by shelves stocked with books and ornaments and other
treasures.

Bedding Configuration:

Bed 1 - King Bed with Ensuite
Bed 2 - 2 x King Singles
Bed 3 - 2 x Singles- Can be made into a King Bed on Request
Bed 4 - 1 x Queen Bed

All bedding, linen and bath towels are provided. BYO river/pool towels.

Venture out to the Retreats own dream yard complete with swimming pool (operating in summer only), day bed, circular outdoor dining set and a stunning horseshoe lounge circling your own private fire caldron.
Regardless of which wing you retire to, you will be amongst immaculate antique furnishings and
stylish design giving a real sense of historic luxury. Ducted climate control ensures comfort no matter
the weather, and the kitchen could almost be considered commercial, it is so large and well
equipped

Paradise for kids or adults alike, this is the ultimate friends retreat or extended family home. With
every luxury provided for, and every room lovingly furnished, you may never want to leave.

Wonderful retreat
The house was excellently appointed. It was like moving from our home to a replica. The only thing we thought could be better was some lamp light in the main sitting room would have been great. The overhead lighting was quite severe with no alternative.

Lovely property
The house was lovely enough that even if the weather didn’t accomodate we had enough entertainment at the house to keep us satisfied. The billiard table was a hit amongst me and my friends and the house itself was just exquisite. We’ll definitely be going back

Wonderful place to stay for the family!
We absolutely loved our stay at Collins Retreat. The house was very well appointed and the pool and spa was just fantastic! The whole area was unbelievably quiet. We will most definitely be back. Thanks for having our family in your lovely home.

Spacious Home in Quiet Location
The house is lovely. Fresh clean linen, spacious rooms. Our kids loved the arcade game and used the pool table too. Plenty of storage for bikes which we needed. Quite a few pantry staples provided which made a big difference The spa and pool were not as advertised. The pool not heated. The spa did work but requires filling each time. I recommend you check both are operational if you intend on using them.

The perfect location for our event
We wanted a location that provided everything so that we didn't necessarily need to go out to eat, etc. As we had children with us, having a pool was perfect. There was every comfort. Lots of space. Very quiet. Beautifully decorated.

Brilliant place in beautiful Bright
The house is very spacious, nicely decorated, with absolutely al you need inside. The kitchen was beautifully filled with ustensiles, cleaning product, and all plates you can think of. The backyard and the pool are very good to relax and enjoy sunny Bright. Communication was fast and easy. We hope to return soon and highly recommend the house.

Great house
Stayed here now 4 years in a row with the whole family. Fantastic with kids pool and spa fantastic as you can heat it. It could use a new firmer mattress in the main bedroom. Also would like a little bit more light I think maybe stronger globes , and a few kitchen utensils like a sharp knife and bottle opener. But still amazing Thanks

Amazing and relaxing
We stayed here and found the House to perfect for a quiet getaway - It is very well appointed and everything you need is here. My only comment would be that a number of lights didn't work and also the Spa wouldn't heat up so we didn't use it. Other than that totally recommend this House its just so lovely.

Excellent property!!
This is the most beautiful spot to get away! It is set up with everything you would ever need for the perfect getaway! We loved spending time in the pool and spa, even utilising it to watch the sunrise. Perfectly situated next to stunning mountains means 'quiet' and the most pretty views from every window. We endeavour to get back!!

The place to stay in Bright!
We thoroughly enjoyed our three day weekend at Collins Retreat. The house has been designed with the living and kitchen areas in the middle of the house and two bedrooms on either side of this central area. This is a perfect set-up for multiple families/couples travelling together. The games area provided hours of entertainment and the owners even leave you access to two bikes and helmets, a set of golf clubs and pool toys. The outdoor area comprising of a pool, spa, alfresco seating, BBQ and sunken seating area perfectly complemented the house. Quality appliances and furniture, 4 TVs, DVD players and stacks of DVDs, magazines, books, board games, extra linen, pantry staples, laundry detergents, toiletries you would expect in a hotel...the list goes on and on. We will definitely be back again and highly recommend this property!
