Our Barn Studio was hand-built over 30 years ago with timber felled and milled on the property. Find inside walls lined with beautiful hardwood timber, a soft queen bed, basic kitchenette and modern eco bathroom. A comfy sofa to rest after adventures in the surrounding National Parks, equipped with a record player and library of books for the unwind.

Follow the stairs down to a private fire-pit overlooking the dam where you can listen to the sounds of nature.

A WILDERNESS RANCH FOR WILDER TIMES
Set on 39 acres on the Far South Coast of NSW you'll find a cleared block of land deep in the forest, a place called Sugar Rock Ranch. Once cleared for cattle grazing, now a transformation project to invite the wild back in - a wilderness ranch for wilder times.

Located opposite the northern end of the Beowa (Ben Boyd) National Park in Eden, its the perfect location for eco-conscious travellers in search of long weekend getaways full of quiet, nostalgia and adventures outdoors.

I had a dream to find the perfect property, relocate from Sydney and make a life where I landed. Now you’ll find me on a tractor, tending to my garden and walking the trails here in the Deep South!

Nethercote Falls

A short and steep hike down (and then back up) will lead you to this hidden gem – a tiny waterfall that flows all year round. We were lucky to have it to ourselves and we enjoyed spending time in the secluded scenery. There are many pools above the falls that would be perfect for a cooling dip come summer.

Pambula Beach

The town’s name is derived from the local aboriginal word ‘panboola’, which means twin waters. Pambula Beach is famous for white sands, crashing waves and azure seas. On the southern side of the river is Severs Beach, located in the Ben Boyd National Park.

Longstocking Brewery

After a day of adventures, I highly recommend stopping in for a locally crafted beer or cider, alongside some of the best wood=fired pizzas I've ever tried (try the garlic and margherita). This brewery is located in the popular Oaklands area and the venue is super cool, with greenery hanging from the ceilings inside. Most importantly, the food is to die for!

Wild Ryes Baking Co

One of the best bakeries I have ever bought from, this little local gem was a highlight. It was so good for easy food we went back several times.
The coffee was great, and the bread was delicious. We also bought some rolls and pies there for lunches and some treats to have with tea.
It was only a short walk from the cottage so we could bring back the takeaway and enjoy it in the garden.
