“EXCELLENT HOUSE WITH BEAUTIFUL GARDENS”
'The house is great for larger groups, or families/friends. Big, beautiful garden, and lots of spaces to hang out and enjoy time together. Close drive to the beach in Rye, or a 20 odd minute walk, lots of things close by as well. Andrew was super communicative, and easy to deal with - check in and out was super easy! We had an excellent long weekend here with a big group of family/friends and kids!.’
Jess B. - May 2021

I'll look forward to coming back again in the near future. Thank you again Andrew, our group of friends are still complementing the house and I'm recommending a family friend to look to stay here with their family in the near future. Thank you.’

"FAMILY HOME AWAY FROM HOME"
“'Family home away from home. Wallowie Fields Beach house is a fantastic place to stay! Close enough to beaches, shops and very peaceful and relaxing. 13 of us stayed 9 Adults and 3 Kids, and we all had our own space to relax—plenty of room for kids to run around and play. Everything has been thought about to make the stay comfortable, and Andrew communication is thorough, easy to deal with and accommodating. We will definitely consider staying here again.

The grounds are beautiful and we made use of the pool table all weekend. The Beach is just a short walk. We hired Chef Guy from Some Guys Foods Saturday night. I highly recommend Guy if this is something your looking at doing. Thank you Andrew for letting us stay at your gorgeous home. We will hopefully be back.'“
Brenda B. - 2020
"THANKYOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING"
“I recently had to cancel our booking for Christmas with all of my family - parents, adult siblings and their children. We don’t get together very often because we live across three states so were very excited about our booking at Wallowie. However, it just felt too risky to keep the booking given the unknown situation with state borders. I contacted Andrew and he quickly got back to me offering a refund for our deposit. Our family very much appreciated this good will. He was very understanding and we’re very grateful. We look forward to staying in the future. Booking and communicating were a breeze and the place looks so lovely! I hope another family can enjoy it! Steph.“
Steph F. - 2020
"Beautiful architectural house with amazing backyard"
“We 3 families stayed for 2 nights and it was really an amazing experience. The best part of the house is the beautiful front and back yard with an excellent lawn . Our kids loved it and didn't get time to go to beach. In the main building all the bedrooms opens to nice garden views and which is a great experience in the morning. Overall an amazing place for a holiday and will come back again.“
Thomas A. - March 2020
"LOVELY TRANQUILITY"
“Our group of 15 stayed at this lovely house on a large beautifully manicured block. Having the two living areas, provided areas for those wanting to read and those wanting to watch TV or play pool. The pool table provided lots of fun and entertainment. Sitting out in the garden and relaxing was just what we needed. Not far from coastal walks and coffee shops and plenty of golf courses. House was very clean, beds very comfortable and plenty of cutlery and crockery. Thanks Andrew! “
Jacqueline M. - January 2020
"highly recommend"
“Andrew’s place is perfect for a large group getaway. The gardens are so lovely and fun for kids to run around, and for all of us to soak up some sun or sit in the shade when needed. The house is very clean and so convenient to use, we’re able to all cook together as a group and not feel in the way of each other. There’s lots of spaces for people to relax. And it’s fun to have a pool table! Highly recommend staying here. Thanks again for our great experience at your place.”
Greta D. - November 2019
"A family affair"
“My family and I stayed at Wallowie Fields to celebrate a 70th and 30th birthday. The house is just stunning, with gorgeous stained glass doors and windows, and amazing vaulted ceilings. The bedroom configuration works well, with 3 bedrooms together at one end and a 4th at the other end of the house. The bungalow is probably best suited for a family with kids as the rooms are close together, although there is no bathroom out there, which wasn't a problem for us. The grounds are beautifully manicured, and we loved lazing around on the grass in the sun. The bbq set up and table outside served us well for a large family dinner, and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook up a storm for a large group. The pool table was a novelty and provided hours of entertainment. Andrew was extremely attentive and accommodating, providing us with early check in and extended checkout at no extra cost, and ensured we had everything we needed for a lovely stay. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Wallowie Fields and would highly recommend.“
Alinta A. - October 2019

Rajiv B. - April 2019
"beautiful getaway"
“We held a company retreat at Wallowie Fields beach house over 2 weeks in January including families. The house and incredibly well manicured garden gave us plenty of space for a large group and the kids really loved playing outside on open lawns. The kitchen and eating areas were well organised for communal cooking and meals and the entertainment areas served as a great area for business planning sessions. The locations felt isolated which was great as we wanted to get away from the city, but was only a short drive to local beaches, the bay, and shops at Rye. I would highly recommend Wallowie Fields to anyone looking for a spacious, classy retreat from the city.”
Antony M. - January 2019
"OUTSTANDING!"
“Our first mother's group of five families have been getting away on weekends for 15 years. Wallowie Fields is by far the best property we have ever stayed at. The accommodation is beautifully presented, immaculately clean and convenient to all that Rye has to offer. We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend and fully intend to come back. Big thanks to Andrew and Lisa who obviously work so hard to make Wallowie Fields the wonderful home that it is.”
Fiona M. - January 2019

"FANTASTIC PROPERTY"
A very spacious and clean property. Very comfortable throughout with plenty of space outdoors for entertaining or for the kids to run around. The bedding was clean and comfortable and the property is set out well, which enables a large group like ours to spread out over the entire property. Billiard room with table, dvd's for the kids, outdoor entertainment area, cubby house and plenty of space on the immaculately maintained grounds for good old 'hide n seek' for the kids. very well zoned house for adults and kids area. Well done.

"FAMILY WEEKEND"
We found this to be a great house for our family. Plenty of room for the children to play inside and out. The kitchen/dining/sitting area was large enough to hold all 14 of of us. The walk in pantry was a plus for us with two coeliacs needing a gluten free prep area. The cottage was also a great chill out zone for the teens. We really appreciated the cleanliness and comfort provided.

"WHAT A PLACE TO STAY"
What a place to stay! We stayed over Christmas with an extended family of 14. There was plenty of space for all, plenty of bedrooms to spread out in so we weren't on top of each other and 2 living spaces to hang out in. The garden was delightful and green despite the hot weather. Sheets and beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with utensils and basics like oil sugar and tea. Ample room for lots of family fun, would highly reccomend this holiday home. Don't forget your board games!

"FABULOUS"
We had a fabulous stay at Wallowie Fields. The house is exactly as described and is spacious for big groups. An extra bonus, which we hadn't expected, was the beautiful garden and lovely lawn! Fabulous for young kids. The immaculate and tastefully decorated house with a beautiful veranda to eat out, made it highly enjoyable staying at the house and was perfect for our Christmas holiday. Also very kid friendly. Well located. We couldn't have had a better holiday! Thank you.

"WONDERFUL FAMILY BIRTHDAY WEEKEND!"
We had a wonderful family birthday weekend at Wallowie Fields Beach house. The house is incredibly spacious, especially as we had 3 generations under one roof. Lots of fun activities to be done within the property, and extremely child friendly. Despite being August, we took advantage of the sunshine to have a BBQ, and the house is well suited to cooking for big groups. At night the wood fires kept the large rooms toasty. We also enjoyed the local food and wine recommendations from Andrew - Red Hill had a fantastic range of producers! I couldn't recommend the property more highly and only hope that we can get back in the summer!

"Lovely relaxing summer weekenD"
Recently booked this property for a weekend away with 4 couples, 2 singles and 2 babies. It was the perfect size for the group. The property had all the right amenities and the gardens are lovely - really relaxing and lots of space to lose each other/hang out. Pool table was great fun and the kitchen/dining was large enough to all pitch in without getting under each other's feet. The beach was a little less accessible that we thought but it was still easy to find.
Clare - January 2014
"Perfect Family Holiday Home"

What a wonderful property. It was spacious and clean and catered to our every need. We were a large group and it was great that we could all be together but also have our own space if needed. The kitchen was large and had a wide variety of pots and pans which made cooking easy. I also loved that there were 2 fridges as we were a lot of people so there was plenty of room to store all our food and drinks!

What a fantastic property for those who are looking to accommodate a large number of people, the property's living areas are quite spacious allowing everyone to spread out - 2 x living areas, we had the younger generations in one room playing board games & the oldies in the other chatting away. 4 Generations of girls = 11 people occupying the house, we were happy to find a large backyard for the younger ones to explore. Rye back beach not far for walking. Andrew kept in contact before the stay to ensure all was in order. The bottle of sparkling on arrival was a pleasant surprise and enjoyed by all (except the young ones). Thanks Andrew for providing a house that accommodated large numbers which gave my family the opportunity to enjoy a weekend stay together. Highly recommend and we will be back.

Wallowie Fields was a great Easter holiday destination for our extended family. There was no trouble with 9 adults and 6 children.
