点评:We had the most incredible weekend at Blackburn Ridge — what a special place!
A group of us Uni girlfriends (now all busy mums!) stayed for two nights and instantly felt at home. The homestead is warm, welcoming and beautifully appointed — from the gorgeous linen and Real World products to the roaring fires and thoughtful touches throughout.
We were so well looked after with delicious catering by Kate de Lautour — high-quality ingredients, generous portions, and meals that felt both nourishing and indulgent. We especially appreciated not having to think about food for once — such a treat! The local Hawthorne coffee was a hit too, giving us just the boost we needed to kick off our days.
The wood-fired hot tub was a highlight — perfect for relaxing after a day of walking or e-biking, and even better under the stars before bed. Having e-bikes included in the stay was a real bonus, and we loved the mix of walking and biking tracks available, all steeped in rich local history.
We were lucky enough to see snow on the mountains, so arriving to a warm home and spa already going felt extra magical. The minibar stocked with local goodies was a brilliant touch too — a great way to sample and support local producers.
A huge thanks to Mickey, whose attention to detail made everything seamless. We loved meeting her and hearing a bit about her story and the land.
Our group would highly recommend this experience — whether you're after adventure, relaxation, or a little bit of both. Add it to your list — you won’t regret it!
翻译:我们在布莱克本岭度过了一个难忘的周末——真是个特别的地方!
我们几个大学女友(现在都成了忙碌的妈妈!)在这里住了两晚,立刻就有了家的感觉。从华丽的床单和Real World的产品,到熊熊燃烧的壁炉,以及处处贴心的布置,这片温馨的家园温馨宜人,布置精美。
凯特·德·劳图尔(Kate de Lautour)精心准备的美味餐饮让我们倍感舒适——食材优质,份量十足,餐点营养丰富,令人回味无穷。我们尤其感激这次不用再为吃饭操心——真是太棒了!当地的霍桑咖啡也很受欢迎,给了我们开启一天所需的能量。
燃木热水浴缸是一大亮点——非常适合在一天步行或电动自行车骑行后放松身心,睡前在星空下放松身心。住宿包含电动自行车租赁服务更是锦上添花,我们也很喜欢这里混合的步行道和自行车道,它们都蕴含着丰富的当地历史。
我们很幸运地看到了山上的积雪,所以来到温暖的家,享受着已经准备好的水疗,感觉格外神奇。迷你吧里摆满了当地特色美食,也非常贴心——这是品尝和支持当地生产商的绝佳方式。
非常感谢Mickey,她对细节的关注让一切都变得天衣无缝。我们很高兴与她见面,并听她讲述她的故事和这片土地。
我们团队强烈推荐这次体验——无论您是追求冒险、放松,还是两者兼而有之。把它添加到您的清单中——您不会后悔的!
