Don the owner, was a very friendly chap who checked in to make sure we were happy and set up, gave us a tour of the main house and some great tips on where to watch platypus (didn’t see any unfortunately) and local information. We used the house as a base to explore Bald Rock, Boonoo Boonoo and the area, rather than staying in town. Lovely to sit on the verandah watching the sheep, or in front of the fire. Well set up for self-catering re: kitchen. Some nice touches, e.g. fire set up, plenty of wood, basic supplies in fridge (eggs, milk, muffins). Would definitely recommend - and would recommend the shearer’s quarters for bigger groups. ##### PHIL G.

The homestead has all the old world charm, and is a sight to behold, with the renovations continuing on a luxurious scale. Both the schoolhouse, the Stockman's Cottage, and the shearer's lodgings are very comfortable and have all the amenities and little touches for a very welcoming stay. We are looking forward to returning soon. ##### Geoffrey C.

Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Megan M. 18 Apr 2018 #### Country Retreat So very peaceful. We stayed in the stockmans cottage which was a fully equipped home away from home. It has a beautiful outlook through the gums, across the paddock to the hills. You are free to take walks around this gorgeous historic property, or just sit on the cottage verandah and soak up the atmosphere. Our hosts were so friendly and welcoming and directed us to the points of interest on the property. Deb even encouraged us to raid her luscious vegie garden! This offer was too good to resist. ##### Megan M. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Fairmont-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h522363.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Rocks by Ode Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Harbour-Rocks-By-Ode-Hotels.h40904.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Hunter Valley Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pokolbin-Hotels-Mercure-Resort-Hunter-Valley-Gardens.h1877968.Hotel-Information) > > [Ibis Budget Newcastle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Newcastle.h9627133.Hotel-Information) > > [Sydney Harbour Marriott Hotel at Circular Quay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Sydney-Harbour-Marriott-Hotel-At-Circular-Quay.h18811.Hotel-Information) > > [The Urban Newtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Urban-Newtown.h9140131.Hotel-Information) > > [SKYE Suites Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-SKYE-Suites-Sydney.h24507540.Hotel-Information) > > [Lilianfels Resort & Spa - Blue Mountains](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Lilianfels-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h872.Hotel-Information) > > [Aiden by Best Western Darling Harbour](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Aiden-By-Best-Western-Darling-Harbour.h67610514.Hotel-Information) > > [The Carrington Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Carrington-Hotel.h474003.Hotel-Information) > > [Veriu Green Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Veriu-Green-Square.h33512844.Hotel-Information) > > [Bannisters Port Stephens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Soldiers-Point-Hotels-Bannisters-Port-Stephens.h27355893.Hotel-Information) > > [Meriton Suites Sussex Street](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Meriton-Suites-Sussex-Street.h25019183.Hotel-Information) > > [Wake Up!
