Quiet and peaceful until our group of middle aged sisters arrived. We had a great time sitting by the fire and drinking wine collected from a variety of beautiful wineries close by. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms were clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. Outside the gardens were full of beautiful daffodils with cows mooing across the road. Wonderful time was had.

Lovely cottage

We would have loved to stay longer here! Multiple living areas, comfortable beds and a beautiful yard. It was cold and rainy while we were there, but the fire warmed us up nicely and we had a lovely time.

Great family accomodation

This house was suited in a quiet and picturesque location, not too far from the centre of Orange. It was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed, including lovely bathroom supplies. There was plenty of space for our family of five and easy access to technology. We would highly recommend this property!

Better than expected!!

Perfect location - small lake, great view, yet still close to town centre. We loved the design of the house including the bar, bathrooms, bedrooms and living space. We would love to share this space with our family and friends the next time we stay!

Quiet rural retreat

Bendalong is a 10-min drive from Orange and is a lovely tranquil property. Our young family enjoyed games, walks and being woken up to the birdlife. Would have been nice to have the external areas a little cleaner but other than that, we couldn't fault it.

The property is nestled in lovely rural setting in the hills near Mt Canabolas. It is quiet, peaceful, with just the birds and a few farm animals nearby for company. It is literally 10 minutes drive to the heart of Orange, but you feel far removed from any big town. We found the property very clean, well appointed and everything we could need. The fireplace on the cold nights was definitely a highlight. The kitchen was spacious and had everything and more you would need to cook up a storm. There was even a separate bar area which was great.The beds were very comfortable and warm. The bathrooms clean and well appointed.The check-in process was easy, and we had no problem finding the place. It really is a special place, with little touches everywhere to make you smile. We have already recommended to family and friends and would definitely book again for a return visit to Orange.

A Perfect Escape

A lovely homely property in a quiet location. Very clean and exceeded our expectations. Tastefully modernised with very comfy beds and great bathrooms. Loved the fire! Everything we could have wished for. Great to have wifi and mobile reception and access to streaming services. We would love to come back.

My recent stay at Bendalong was nothing short of superb!

This property is located in a beautiful rural spot close to everything you need around the Orange Area, We arrived to an already heated house with music playing and a welcome box of goodies that felt like we were in our own home. This place was so well set up for what we wanted and was such good value for the money! Surrounded by wildlife and with all the bells and whistles of a well renovated house, nothing in this home disappointed. Thank you so much for your hospitality, we cannot wait to return and show other friends and family one of Nashdale's best kept secrets!

A lovely property in a very quiet location. We stayed here last year too and since then, plantation shutters have been added to all rooms. The master suite is huge and has a lovely bathroom. The room with the fireplace is very cosy and we used it a lot as it was very cold and raining during our stay. In warm weather there is a lovely verandah in the gardens. We noticed it wasn’t quite as clean as the last time we stayed but nothing we couldn’t fix ourselves. The house is very dark and none of the lighting, except the bathrooms, seems to be sufficient, especially on dark and dreary days. But all in all, it’s a lovely place to stay

We loved our stay at Bendalong - Rural Retreat. The property is beautifully presented, we were welcomed with calm music and a lovely lit home. The little goodie basket was definitely a bonus. The home was comfortable and clean. The kids loved running around the gardens and asked if we could stay longer! I would definitely recommend this property to a family or friends wanting to get away to Orange. We could have quite happily just hung around Bendalong as it felt like home. It is an easy 15min drive to the centre of Orange. The communication with Stuart was great as we were allowed to take some delicious lemons off the lemon tree. Thank you Bendalong, we will visit again!
