Rockleigh Retreat is waiting for you! Linen All linen (sheets and bath towels) is supplied for your stay and included in the tariff. For the comfort of our guests, we do not triple-sheet. All beds have a fitted sheet, a flat sheet and a quilt with a full cover. BYO linen for the complimentary portable cot. Toiletries Shampoo, conditioner and body/hand wash are provided. Property Specific Notes Beyond the firepit and a few other spots, the land slopes steeply down toward the upper reaches of Stonequarry Creek. Please do not go beyond the wire fence. The steep staircase leading to the old quarry shed and workshop area is designated as off-limits. The environmental septic system is sensitive to harsh chemicals (e.g. bleach) and sanitary products. Guests are kindly asked to avoid flushing these items. The hydronic heating system is preset to provide warm comfort (around 21 degrees). Please do not adjust the thermostats. Bathrooms are equipped with a ‘hot water’ rocker switch, which activates a pump for faster access to warm water. There’s no TV reception in the area, but smart TVs are available for streaming via Starlink WiFi. Pets are NOT permitted at this property. Starlink WiFi is offered as a complimentary extra. As there is no charge, issues will be dealt with Asap but cannot be guaranteed. Enough wood will be supplied for the slow-combustion wood heater for the first two nights. After that, guests must purchase top-up wood and kindling from the local petrol stations at their own cost. Kindling may be available from dead wood located around the property. To ensure the comfort of our guests and the neighbours, we do not accept bookings for "Schoolies" breaks/under 21yrs groups and under no circumstances do we allow weddings or parties of any sort.
