About the host

Hosted by Kerrie and Drew Mitchell

Host profile image
Kerrie and Drew are experienced hosts having owned another fabulous and much larger Hawksbury property - Bandusia Retreat. They have spent the last two years building and extending and have completed a full refurbishment of First Farm cottage.
Always offering accommodation of the highest standard in its class, they have once again created a benchmark holiday retreat for city guests in this beautiful forgotten valley.

Why they chose this property

First Farm was one of the first properties granted along the Hawkesbury and signed off by Governor Macquarie in the land grant of 1820. John Bayley having reached the age of 21 was entitled to a land grant in the colony and searched out the most suitable property well served with water and rich soils to grow corn and potatoes for the hungry and growing colony. This is a chance to share all that history that is embodied in this heritage listed cottage with our city friends. We are excited to offer the cottage as a mid-week retreat and a romantic weekend escape.

What makes this property unique

Relaxing, clean air and wonderful natural flora and fauna. True retreat qualities to help guests relax and forget their stresses. Rejuvenating environment with more history to be experienced with the Great North Road, Settlers Arms Inne and the stories told on the headstones in our local graveyards. The lake offers a keen fishermen an opportunity to clean our some big carp or maybe lure in a bass. The birdwatcher has their hands full from first light as they wake to the many and varied sounds of the 100 or so species in our area. Pelicans, ducks, cormorants, darts, herons, white ibis and swamp hens are your companions as you paddle out on your ski onto the lake waters.
