The Family Experience

Our Place Outdoors

Our Place at Bright provides an outdoor experience like no other.

With so many inviting spaces, you’ll be drawn to gather outside, sit back and watch the children play, or just relax with a morning coffee listening to the ambient sounds of the rock water feature.

There are lawns large enough for an afternoon cricket match and cosy hanging pod chairs to have a quiet moment in the sun.

Get everyone together for a gourmet feast prepared on the large central barbeque, and sit around the magnificent outdoor tables crafted just down the road in Porepunkah.

Across from the large alfresco area is a kid’s haven, with plenty of things to keep them busy, including a gorgeous cubbyhouse, sand pit and swing set – all visible from any of the homes.

For those who’ve been out cycling or mountain biking, there’s a bike wash bay available – as well as a secure storage area in each home to store your bike or other recreational gear.

At night you can watch the same superb landscape come to life with accent lighting throughout, sit by the centrally located fire pit and soak in the ambience, providing the perfect moment to enjoy a glass of the region’s famous Shiraz, or toast a few marshmallows.

 

Fun for the Kids

Happy Kids Happy Family

Any parent will know how amazing it is to have a family holiday where there’s plenty to keep the kids happy and entertained. It’s an added bonus when the place is a luxury for the parents too!

Our Place at Bright offers just that – a beautiful space for mum and dad to relax while the kids are happy playing outdoors or in.

A kids’ paradise

The kids’ outdoor play area is visible from all of the homes and includes":

  • Large cubbyhouse – a mini replica of the main homes

  • Sandpit

  • Swing set

  • Picnic table

The internal driveways inside the closed gates are also a great area for the kids to ride the bikes or scooters, keeping away from the main road, and the large lawn areas perfect for a cricket match or kicking the footy.

"Even better in real life if that is possible. This place really is the perfect holiday retreat - charming homes with great outdoor spaces... It even has a cubby for the kids! We fell in love and will definitely return. One of the best accommodation options in Bright!"
