About this property

Black Jack Get-A-Way Magpies Nest

Welcome to "Magpies Nest" This cosy cottage overlooks the Pekina Creek, home to majestic River Red Gums and plentiful bird life. An ideal place for that relaxing get-a-way from the hustle and bustle of normal life. In the mornings you will awaken to the magpies singing their morning song outside your window, then in the evenings, join them on the veranda with a glass of wine to watch the sun set while they sing you good night.

Good old fashioned pride in product offered.
Located in outback town location this simple 3 bedder ticks all the boxes many more elaborate and expensive accommodation houses fail to provide. Every imaginable requirement is provided for the weary traveller to comfortably pull off the road for a night or two. Clean, quiet and well equipped. Well done Susan.

A cottage with wonderful views
A cottage with a great from the verandah. We arrived late but the cottage exceeded our expectations, wish we could stayed longer, nothing was missing. We gave the local pub around the corner a visit and here we found out more points of interest to visit, but because we only passing by we have to stop next time a day longer.
