About this property

Fontenoy Cottage - Country Escape in the heart of the Snowies

Situated on a 2000 hectare working cattle property in the Snowy Mountains. The workers cottage provides a comfortable and peaceful getaway.
Surrounded by rolling hills and endless skies, Fontenoy is the perfect place to relax and recharge.
Ideal for couples, groups of friends and families.
Parents love the freedom Fontenoy offers. Children can interact with the farm animals and our family dogs Tuke and Ripper.
Spend hours exploring the hidden creeks, river and fairy hills around the property.
Lounge on the wrap around deck or sit by the outdoor fire at night watching the stars.
A summer favourite is swimming in the pristine waterhole, followed by a BBQ on the river. In winter the ski fields are only a short drive away.
Or cosy up with a good book by the wood fire.

Only 10kms from the township of Adaminaby, 45mins from Cooma, and 1.5 hrs from Canberra. Perfect for a weekend getaway or longer stay.
Conveniently located between the Kosciuszko National Park and the Murrumbidgee River, spend your days relaxing or exploring everything the region has to offer.

The cottage is the perfect place to sit and read or just enjoy the surroundings.

Lovely cottage old on outside beautifully new renovation inside.
We found the cottage and hosts to be lovely. The quiet, scenery and stars were spectacular. Only disappointment was the forecasted snow was barely a flurry. Great cottage for a snuggle by the fire 👍

Amazing Country Experience.
This property ticked all the boxes for our trip away. Located in the heart of the Snowies, it provided the perfect base for our winter holiday. The accommodation was clean and modern, with a full size kitchen and an amazing modern bathroom. The beds were super comfy and the fireplace kept us toasty at all times. The hosts were very accommodating and allowed us to walk/drive their property to view the spectacular Murrumbidgee River and the abundant wildlife. Our son loved running around with the farm dogs Tuke and Ripper, and also enjoyed feeding the chickens. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would highly recommended staying.
