Thank you for sharing your peaceful property with us. We enjoyed the comfort and beauty of our surrounds, but most of all, the warmth of your welcome. Our dog, "Geordie" also says thank you. We will happily recommend your B&B to our friends.

Beautiful apartment and idyllic, peaceful surroundings. We had a great time recharging our batteries, and the cats had a great time, too. Thanks again for your hospitality and we hope to come again.

The Mansfield area is a holiday destination for "all seasons and all reasons". There are always interesting festivals and activities.

Many talented artists and entertainers have made this beautiful area their home and are actively involved in community activities.

The mountains offer snow sports, sightseeing and snow play in winter and in summer, 4WD, bushwalking, painting, photography, helicopter excursions,music and art events, horse riding, motor bike riding, mountain biking, etc etc.

Then the rivers and lakes are wonderful for picnics, swimming, boating, fishing, or just sitting on a deck chair, reading a book.

Often there are balls, theatre productions and fantastic concerts which visitors are welcome to attend.

The Mansfield area boasts a variety of excellent restaurants, wineries and even a boutique brewery.

The Mansfield Zoo is worth a visit, as it is interactive and visitors can hand feed many friendly native and exotic animals.Visit at feeding time when the zoo keeper feeds the lions and explains and tells anecdotes about the other animals along the way.

All these things are readily accessed from Liptelvin Hillside Retreat. There is something for everyone to enjoy.

Having been a teacher, I enjoy interacting with children of all ages. I also babysit them free of charge if parents want to go out for dinner. I love building their confidence with animals, as we groom the horses and donkey together and take them for walks on lead ropes. They can hold one of the hens, help collect the eggs, feed the tame magpies, play with Ben, our dog, and do drawing with me (I was also an art teacher). We have a number of Theme Gardens which some of our young guests have helped to create and leave their mark. They are so proud of their efforts. Older children enjoy the large pool table and playing on the organ. My husband is group leader for Scouts, and we both have Working with Children Cards.

I love animals and people, and BOTH groups are treated as VIP guests.

If they are used to living inside and are toilet trained, they can live inside with their owners. If owners want to go out for dinner or to a national park, I look after them free of chage. We have hosted a variety of pets including dogs, cats and even guinea pigs!Our dog Ben, loves having his own canine guests, and having had over 60 doggie guests of all breeds, sizes and personalities, he has befriended them all, and been nicknamed "Uncle Ben" by a number of human guests.
