Iona Park, Moss Vale, Southern Highlands | House in Moss Vale

Iona Park, Moss Vale, Southern Highlands - 4pm check out Sundays and Public Holidays, except Summer Season
Iona Park is a large and majestic country home set on a 100 acre working horse and cattle farm. The property delivers a blend of formal yet comfortable rural living, and the house is large enough to effortlessly accommodate up to 21 guests (4 on sofa beds). A swimming pool, two world-class clay tennis courts, and lovely lawns and gardens round out a perfect Southern Highlands getaway!
The property has two clay courts that have been developed by John Alexander. One is a finely graded crushed basalt and the other similarly graded crushed tile. The courts are designed to play medium pace and be receptive to spin, but most of all, to be kind to the body. The controlled slide virtually eliminates the damaging jarring that occurs on hard courts and the resulting damage to knees and hips.
Please note:
- Iona Park has a full-time caretaker who lives on site. The caretaker's dwelling is near the stables and has its own driveway access. The caretaker will not interact with you during your stay and will give guests full privacy - unless there are excessive guest numbers at the property and / or inappropriate behaviour or noise.
- Strictly no parties at this property – please. You will be evicted if this rule is broken.
Where will I be?
