Charming country escape
Waking up to the sounds of the farm and spotting a platypus in the river, made for a truly special experience. It was wonderfully quiet, perfect for a relaxing getaway. If you’re after a simple, clean, and charming retreat in the countryside, this place is a great choice.

Autumn Escape For Our Family
Azalea Cottage was as described - perfect position by the Tumut River. The kids loved the cows and riverside adventures. They also spent time fishing from the riverbank. A great time had by all.

Our cottage out of town was very peaceful, with private access to the river.The town of Tumut has a country vibe with everything you need, including a great Brewery that serves some of the best pizza's around.Cleanliness of crockery was the only element that dropped the point score.

Gorgeous and peaceful
Upon arrival, we were pleasantly greeted by Brett the owner, he took us straight to our cottage (which was immaculate), gave us a quick run down and left us to settle in.The grounds are beautiful, close to the river and town.We had our own carport next to the cottage which was handy because it rained most of the time.Loved this place, first and definatly not the last time we will stay there.

Fantastic Farmstead Cottage
The bedroom overlooking the farm with cows mooing at our window is just such a great experience. Beautiful sunshine coming through the cottage makes our stay here so enjoyable. Dinner by the river with warm fire at night definitely a wonderful experience to end our weekend getaway. We will be back soon !!!

Quiet Escape
The property is located in a relaxing rural setting, backing onto the Tumut River. Only a short drive or 20 minute walk into Tumut shopping area and eateries. This was a lovely comfortable, quiet place to stay, 'away from it all' but not too far.
