There are 5 en-suite bathrooms, and a guest toilet adjacent to the kitchen and main living room. The pizza oven and additional BBQ are located in the gardens, as part of the pool cabana.

A perfect family accommodation choice with pool, tennis court, beautiful gardens and bedrooms.
We loved the Milhouse from the moment we arrived. It was just the most beautiful spacious home for a large extended family, with vast and beautifully cared for, indoor and outdoor spaces - something for everyone from the youngest granddaughter, just 5 years old, to the 90 year old goat granny. The grounds were beautifully maintained with a very child friendly pool and tennis court, rambling gardens and lawns, and perfect indoor and outdoor dining options for family dining and the formal 70th birthday dinner. The kitchen was perfect for the chefs who came to cater for the dinner. I organised a large Woolworths delivery on the first afternoon, which was easily stored in the large cool room, and a full size freezer as well. The bedrooms were well spread out and with tasteful, stylish, and cosy spaces, and luxurious beds and linen.

Unwind at the Milhouse
Excellent weekend away ! The Milhouse was a beautiful home - old cottage charm with views of local farms and rolling hills, an easy walk into Berry, definitely recommend & where I would return again. The property is well presented and beautifully styled, the industrial kitchen was a real treat, the main dining/ living area is stunning with central fire place all bedrooms spacious. Great property for an extended family stay.

Great country homestead
This is a truly great country homestead. We had a group of 7 couples stay for two nights for a 60th birthday weekend. Unfortunately most of our weekend was rainy and cool but the house coped very well with the conditions. The highlights of the property include a great central living area with open fireplace, dining table seating 14 and well appointed semi-commercial kitchen with a very large walk in cool room, 5 superb onsuite double bedrooms in the new wing, and 2 superb double bedrooms which share a lovely older style bathroom in the original cottage wing. There is a beautiful outside courtyard with another large table seating 14 which also has a good sized BBQ. While we couldn’t use the tennis court or pool due to the wet weather, they looked good. The property has lovely gardens that surround the house and a convenient 7 car parking area. There is also a veggie garden, but when we were there it needed a fair bit of work. While there is an old garage that has had a table tennis table and dart board installed, it’s not the most attractive part of the property. There is a dedicated room with TV but it’s a bit small. Overall the property would greatly benefit from having a larger area with pool table and TV and lounge IMO. The property is adjacent to Woodhill Mountain Rd so there is some road noise in the two bedrooms in the original cottage wing, as they are closer to the road, but the other 5 onsuite bedrooms are further away so are quieter. We had DANDELION & MALLOW cater for our Saturday dinner. Highly recommended. Overall a very enjoyable stay.
