In 2016 the property was purchased by Trent and Natalie. After viewing the home for less than 5 minutes they had fallen in love with the place. They could feel the energy of the area and the dream of a guest house was again a possibility. The guest house was something they planned to do when they retired or earlier if they could. Renovations began to make the tired home new again. The entire upstairs was completely guttered and began to be brought back to stunning beauty. This would be the homes residences. Tragically though in the middle of these renovations Natalie passed away and the Kids and Trent had to pick up the pieces. The home was abandoned for many months and the decision of what to do was left in the air.
Early 2019 the decision was made to return the home as a residence and guest house. The renovations restarted and the work to create The Lodge as it is now known begun. The entire downstairs area which will be the first guest house was completely renovated with a brand new bathroom, bedrooms, kitchen and beautiful lounge area to spend by the fire.
Come see it for yourself.
The Lodge has a feeling of peace, serenity, calmness and energy that can be felt before you even get here. You are a world away and now you can re connect. Weather that is by yourself, a couple or friends you will experience something unique here.
Darlington is quite an amazing place that give you a feeling that you are far away from the city but you can also see it. The nature trails are out of this world and you can spend an entire weekend adventuring the trails via foot or bicycle.In Darlington the stars come alive at night as the lights from the city are blocked somewhat by the trees. The Lodge is also very close to many national parks and the Swan Valley.
