The Millet House is a luxury self-contained farmhouse set on the historic property "Melross" in Kangaroo Valley.

Breathtaking views from the house look out across the hills into the spectacular cliff escarpment that surrounds the entire property.
There are so many ways to enjoy your break at The Millet House on Melross - take long walks around the property and down to the river, wander down the country lane to collect some freshly-laid eggs from the chickens, lounge by the swimming pool and enjoy a fresh Espresso Coffee machine, create a feast on the barbeque and enjoy your meal with a glass of local wine, cuddle up by the open fireplace, or just sit back and watch the animals graze and soak up the stunning views from the verandah. There's nothing better than a home-cooked dinner enjoyed outside on the deck gazing at the perfect valley stars.
However, they choose to spend their time all our guests at Melross say the same thing: we never want to leave!
Only 5 minutes' drive and you are in the charming township of Kangaroo Valley, which features the lively Friendly Inn and a select choice of cafes and restaurants.

Beautiful house and exceptional grounds. Host is very responsive and the house is well equipped. But the mattresses would need some updating as they are quite uncomfortable.

Thank you Terrene and John, we had the most fabulous family Christmas getaway. The house was so well equipped there was nothing we could asked for. Such a beautiful property and all the beds and couches were so comfortable. The hosts were so lovely and welcoming and we appreciated the lovely welcome Christmas gift.
It is lovely to stay here. The Valley is magnificent & you get to see the animals. Reminds me of growing up on a farm.
Great if you also have a four legged family member.
The property is everything I read on the reviews and more. The relaxing feeling of the views in the morning is hard to describe.

We enjoyed our stay at Millet house. The house was on a lovely country property with beautiful views every direction and a quick drive into the little town of Kangaroo Valley.
There was lots of room in the house for all our families and the kids loved the pool.
Communication with Terrene and John was easy and they always replied quickly. Check in was easy as well.
We loved our week at Melross. We were two families with 4 children and a baby and found there was plenty of room, with comfortable beds, magical views and a beautiful pool. Any minor concerns were dealt with quickly by Terrene and John and the kids were even given a ride on John’s four wheeler which was a real treat! Thanks for a wonderful week in the country, we’d love to return one day.
