Peter and Jane were amazing hosts, making our stay memorable and peaceful. Peter took us on an amazing tour of the property and shared so much knowledge about the natural wild life. Their cellar door is incredible and they weere both so generous with their time and knowledge. Thank you for an amazing stay and we hope to see you both and Cooper again soon.

A stunning little cottage with a lovely touch of history

The cottage is very cosy, my favourite spot was in front of the huge open fire. Very comfortable lounges and everything you need for a for a relaxing weekend. Peter & Jane were great hosts and a bonus of some lovely wines to taste and purchase.

Absolutely lovely place to stay. Peter and Jane were very friendly hosts, and we really enjoyed our time here - enough that I wish we had booked longer.The cottage was amazing - we loved how original it was. It rained during our stay, so we got to watch the rain roll in from the mountains, and enjoy the sound on the tin roof. Solid wood floors were beautiful, as were the walls, made from planks of local timber. The cottage was built in 1847, and still has that old world feel to it. Truly an amazing getaway. It feels remote and yet close to town at the same time. There is very little to no reception at the cottage, but you will get full 4G reception a couple of minutes away in Wollombi itself. Overall, highly recommended if you want that remote feel without going too far. We are planning on staying here again in the future.

Quaint and very comfortable. Beds were so comfy and clean. Only 1.5 km to village so we walked there and back. Kind host who offered wine on arrival and departure(even lent suit trousers for my husband who’d left his at home!)Breaky great.Lovely outlook. 7 minutes to Wedding venue. Telstra service available on front step.Look forward to future stay.
