Beautiful residence and a home away from home, will definitely come back again. The hospitality was second to none, nothing was a problem.
Thankyou Deb for a thoroughly enjoyable stay.
Lovely big home, great location.We had a family event to attend at the Grafton Racecourse, it was walkable distance.We enjoyed coming back to the house and socialising on the wraparound verandah.Perfect for larger groups of friends or families.
Very comfortable house with everything you need. Cool in the day too. Air-conditioning top quality in bedrooms/lounge. Owner arranged a complete breakfast- ideal for late arrivals!
The house is amazing - historic and yet feels like home. Well stocked kitchen with everything you could need. The breakfast items and little touches were very welcome, including having a Christmas tree to decorate with family. Pool was very welcome given the warm weather. Would stay again.
We loved our stay, the house was presented perfectly and very clean . We really appreciated the breakfast items in the fridge as we didn't have to rush to the shops. Furnishings were very luxurious and comfortable.
A beautiful, cosy and thoughtfully decorated home, every little detail was perfect from the beautiful bathrooms, cosy beds right down to the coffee and chocolates. The garden is lovely and we were very lucky to have such cool weather in Jan.
Jacaranda Festival - delightful property in a charming town
My Husband and I had a lovely stay in this charming 3-bedroom property. Lots of space, beautifully decorated in old world manner.
Excellent customer service from the team
ITHACA was a wonderful house to stay in at Grafton. It felt like we had stepped back in time. All the rooms were beautiful. It was close to everything we needed. Deb was a beautiful and generous host. Nothing was too much trouble. We would love to stay they again.
What a gift to find the splendid âIthaca Houseâ to have all our adult children, partners & our 5yr old granddaughter (Sydney, Perth,GoldCoast & Newcastle) together to share the festive season with extended family in Grafton. We felt instantly at home in superb rooms with every creature comfort we could need. Deb thought of everything-an extra drinks fridge, substantial supplies for breakfast including beautiful eggs from her chooks, there was even a Christmas tree for the 5yo to decorate for the obligatory âpresent-festâ on Christmas morning.!! Next plan will be to try out the home in winter when the cosy blankets, fluffy robes, ample heaters, & board games can come into their own. Thank you to Deb & family for providing this welcome retreat. Cheers Kate & Greg
Deb is a wonderful host who made us feel very welcome at beautiful Ithaca.
Would love to stay there again!

A great heritage experience in a lovely country town
Debbie could not have been more helpful. Meeting us on arrival to show us through the house and explaining how everything works. She gave us great local information. Debbie was only a phone call away when some minor issues cropped up. The beds were comfy. I would recommend staying with Debbie.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ithaca House in grafton it is a beautifully presented federation home. What made our stay especially special was the care the owner Deborah had put into the comforts for us .we stayed throughout christmas and were provided a xmas tree, an extra fridge for drinks, platters for our christmas lunch presentation and a fridge full of goodies.Many thanks to Deb for making this a memorable time for us we will definately stay there again Carol & Mark Port Macquarie

We stayed at Ithaca for 3 days during the Jacaranda Festival. It is a beautiful house and fully equipped with everything you need. Our wonderful hostess looked after our every need and left us plenty of food including the best free range eggs from her own chooks. We had a lovely time and hated to leave and have recommended Ithaca to friends.
I have since I was a young child loved jacarandas and heritage homes. To be able to attend the Jacaranda Festival in Grafton and stay in a heritage home was for me a dream come true and that's exactly what Ithaca is - a beautiful heritage dream come true. Deb was a wonderful host who met us and made us feel at home immediately. The provisions and treats she left for us were so very generous. The home is a delight with no luxury spared. If you love the feel of a beautiful heritage home then this is the place for you. If you are in the area I would highly recommend a stay at Ithaca - definitely something you should experience yourself rather than just reading my review!
Excellent property, well appointed kitchen and very comfortable beds and lounge suite. Kitchen came well stocked with all essentials plus fresh eggs, bacon and even enough pasta, sauces etc for first meals! What a lovely thought after such a long journey. The bedrooms were all different and beautifully decorated. A true home away from home. The owner is vey friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend staying at any of her beautiful property's.
