Reviews
Amazing Getaway!
Dino B - 29th May 2024If you're looking to escape the hustle and bustle and find yourself nestled in a beautiful, quiet lifestyle block, I highly recommend this property. The grand homestead offers numerous facilities and absolutely gorgeous sunsets, which were one of the biggest highlights of our stay. There's plenty of space and well-equipped kitchen facilities. I loved the sound of nature and the nearby farming cows. We will definitely be returning.
Amazing house in the country!
Lucy B - 8th May 2024We had a fantastic weekend away in this house! The house is surrounded by the beautiful countryside with the most amazing views. There is also alpacas, cows and kangaroos surrounding the property which makes it feel even more magical. The house itself was so much bigger than we expected and it had everything we needed. The outdoor area was the highlight for us, even in the torrential rain! We would 100% come back!
Whispering Pines for family celebration.
Greg C - 7th April 2024We booked Whispering Pines for a family of 11 to celebrate a 70th birthday. The property was an excellent choice having ample bedrooms, bathrooms, large living areas and a huge deck complete with BBQ, bar fridge and magnificent open fireplace with beautiful views of the rural countryside. Well designed house with quality fixtures and peaceful surroundings. Would definitely rebook for a special occasion.
Beautiful Property
Lisa P - 5th January 2024A beautiful property in the middle of the nature. My family and I really enjoyed our stay here. Bring some mosquito spray because unfortunately we could barely enjoy the outdoor due to the huge amount of mosquitos.

Great house. Great stay.
Stephen W - 25th September 2023The house was perfect for us. Loved the deck and all the large hangout spaces and tables and chairs. Lovely area with kangaroos, echidnas and more. Handy for Berry.
Great house for a family get together
Paul M - 20th March 2023Beautiful home great spot for a family get together.
Perfect location and house for a group
Simone I - 11th August 2022We were a group of 11 ladies staying the weekend for a 50th birthday celebration. The house was perfect for our group. Large areas to sit and eat. The rooms were very comfortable and again lots of space. The outdoor deck and vista was again large and perfect. The location is right in between Berry and the beach.
PERFECT COUNTRY LONG WEEKEND VENUE
Melody F - 17th December 2021We could not possibly have had a more perfect venue for my fathers 80th birthday FAMILY long weekend away. Whispering Pines is beautiful. The weather for our time away was rain rain and more rain but we had so much space and privacy here. We had the stunning outdoor fire place going all day - so open and protected from the elements. The property had everything we needed for our large multi generational family. The view is stunning and the property was cleaned so well. Memory making perfection.
Whispering Pines Review
Karen C - 13th December 2021Hi, We had a great stay.
Hi Vanessa. Thanks for the feedback and we have or are addressing all issues you have raised. A plumber was there upon your arrival to fix the toilet and a full re-clean of the house was offered, but declined. Whispering Pines is in the process of a major upgrade, with the new decks and huge outdoor entertaining area already completed for your arrival. We have had happy guests either side of your booking and the reviews are not fake. We understand however that Whispering Pines was not the right property for you. Apologies for that.
AMAZING

Perfect for a gathering of people
Chelsea - 17th March 2020Whispering Pines house and cottage ticked all of the boxes for our gathering of family and friends for my 40th birthday!! The house was very spacious and all furniture was suited to the number of guests!!! All bedrooms were large and clean. The outdoor fire pit was the perfect area for us all to gather around and take in the amazing outlook of the green paddocks and distant hills!! I would highly recommend this house.

Wonderful property
Judith - 7th October 2019What a great place for big families. So spacious, comfortable and well appointed. You feel right at home as soon as you walk in. The separate cottage was spacious and exactly what we needed for the younger adults in our group. The location was perfect. Berry, Nowra Gerroa and Gerringong all within short drives. As well as some vineyards! Highly recommend this property.
