On a recent week long business trip to Muswellbrook I was confronted with the usual problems - stay on my own in a motel or try and find a short stay apartment. The short stay holiday apartments were proving to be very scarce when Tuatara appeared in my searches. I had a male colleague in the area as well and we decided to stay together as Tuatara seemed big enough from the website.

This apartment proved to be the perfect business accommodation. The bedrooms were large and well appointed. Mine had a lovely big ensuite and the other bedroom (way, way away from me) had a bathroom just near the bedroom. We had two separate living areas so could easily disappear from each other if we wanted to at the end of a long day or we had the opportunity to chat in the lovely big kitchen/dining room whilst cooking dinner over a glass of wine.

Bedding was clean and crisp. I think there was at least 3-4 TV's. Both bedrooms had wall mounted TV's. There was a garage plus a carport so we could park easily. The supermarket was only about a 2 minute drive. Even the laundry was spotless with loads of products provided. There was also a large outdoor are with BBQ and table.

The owner was prompt and helpful with any small queries or problems.

I couldn't recommend this property more highly and will definitely stay again on my next business trip.

It was conveniently located, only a couple minutes drive from the main street, and supermarkets. The house is very modern and fully equipped with essentials. Gets a little cold in winter so may need to bring an extra blanket, but other than that, it was a very comfortable and relaxing stay.
