CABIN DETAILS
Plenty of space to roam. Leave Sydney far behind and enjoy the freedom.

Medium sized dogs are allowed - an additional $100 pet fee will apply.

The cabin is set on a cliff amongst acres of bush and garden. A farm fence separates the house from the cliff edge but supervision of children will be required.

A feature staircase up to the loft bedroom may not be suitable for toddlers.

Stunning private bushwalk down to the river if you’re up for the challenge. A small jetty at the bottom gives you access for a swim or bring your own kayak

Cabin and surrounding yard - yours for the weekend.
Everything you’d expect in a 3 bedroom home including air-conditioning, BBQ, excellent WIFI , and Netflix!

Phone signal is not great but you can use Wifi calling and get a text message out with Telstra.

Shared space - 8 acres of bush. Please be cautious near the cliff edge. Maintain one body length from the edge and always supervise children. Keep the gates closed.

Your welcome to cook with herbs from the veggie patch and pick some veggies when in season.

Please leave the bush as you found it - do not remove plants, rocks, or animals from our nature reserve. Don't leave any rubbish behind.

Animals, Birds, Reptiles, and Insects
You may like to bring mozzie spray. Insects are a part of the Australian bush. It pays to keep the gauze doors closed if you don’t want to share your space.

My husband and I love escaping Sydney and exploring the bush. We are working hard making improvements, landscaping our property to be a haven for people, animals, and birds. The mod cons are also important to us so we have great WIFI coverage!

Adventures on the Property

These are the exclusive natural wonders and outdoor activities within the property boundaries.

Colo River

Colo River is a great place for BYO boating, kayaking and fishing. The river is accessible via a scenic 20min bush walk down to a small jetty. There are good spots to stop and rest on the way back up. Closest boat ramp 5min drive away.

Outdoor Bath At Sunset

On the property as part of the camp grounds is an outdoor bath. If the camp is vacant, the hosts are more than happy for you to experience this and I highly recommend at sunset.

Bush Walk River Swim

There's a couple of walking tracks along and down to the river. Its on the edge of the cliff, so please be extra careful. I went for a swim too although I do strongly recommend a board or some kind of floating device as the its a tidal river. It doesn't look really strong but trust me it is. Super fun exploring the sand bar across the other side.
