Beautiful location with a welcoming hostess.
We stayed in The Folly whilst between properties. Mary is such a welcoming hostess and the Folly is equally welcoming, located in Mary’s beautiful garden and providing everything we needed for our stay. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend a stay to my family and friends.

Home away from home
Mary and Peter were an amazing and very welcoming host. Their property is beautiful, open and quite. Had an amazing experience staying at their Foley home for 2 weeks. Everything was perfect. It was really home away from home. Everything you needed was there, from a bbq outside, full kitchen, appliances, dishes, WiFi, Netflix, etc. It was everything we expected and more. When we visit Australia again we will not hesitate to stay at the Foley again. The experience being in Australia and having a home not just a room made our vacation complete. Thank you Mary and Peter

Wonderfull stay
The Folly is the perfect place to stay. It is beautifully designed and decorated. I think it it looks even better in reality than in the lovely photos! Attention to detail is obvious everywhere, and it is well equipped for a long stay. It feels very spacious , extremely comfortable and is spotlessly clean .The location was perfect for my needs, it is very quiet and peaceful. Mary was a very welcoming host , extremely helpful and accommodating. I enjoyed every minute of my stay at this beautifull property and would highly recommend it, i didn’t want to leave !

Tranquil hide away
My husband and I visited the Folly when we stayed in Glenorie for two nights because we were attending a friend's 60th birthday party. The accommodation is just beautiful. Spotlessly clean, well presented, wonderful facilities and it is a truly delightful location. I would recommend the Folly to anyone seeking somewhere to stay just outside Sydney. Thank you to Mary our lovely host.
