Enjoy comfortable accommodation in Gumnut, Kangaroo Valley. The perfect private retreat nestled in lush open fields, woodland, and a lot of kangaroos visible right at your doorstep— just 5km from the centre of Kangaroo Valley where tourists often gather.

So, why wait? When you can have this little paradise all to yourself!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please advise that there will be some animal and tractor noise during your stay with us as we are a working farm that cares for animals and crops.

The space

Gumnut sits in a small town of New South Wales, where you can rest and enjoy comfortable accommodation with easy access to water, split air conditioning, a kitchenette, cooking equipment, and excellent bathroom facilities.

The bathroom follows ecologically sustainable principles, including a waterless eco-friendly compost toilet, hand basin, and shower (gas heated for hot showers). It focuses on satisfying people's needs with natural resources and processes to save water through using eco-friendly toilets to save the environment.

The Host was very friendly and provided the information required for the accommodation. The Cabin was very cosy and comfortable for a couple to stay for the weekend. The area was very quiet and peaceful. My partner and I had a wonderful time.

A beautiful spot to switch off and unwind. Highly recommend going for a swim in the river in the day, and then kicking back and watching the sunset and looking at the stars in the night. Incredible! Thanks for a great weekend… we’ll definitely be back 😀

Wombat Watching

Bendeela Campground is no more than a 20-minute drive from Kangaroo Valley itself and hosts a nightly gathering of local Wombats looking for a feed. If you keep a reasonable distance, the furry friends won't even notice you!

Kangaroo River

Paddle a canoe on Kangaroo River, visit Fitzroy Falls; go bush walking, horse riding or simply meander through the sleepy village of Kangaroo Valley.

Golf

Located 1km up the road is the very popular and picturesque Kangaroo Valley Golf course. Hire a cart and enjoy the views. After you can refuel at the restaurant on site.

Under The Bridge

Right underneath the famous Heritage Hampden bridge is a walk down to the creek. Super simple and nice walk, right on the edge of town.

Swim In Kangaroo River

To top off a day of exploring, we came across Kangaroo River what else do you do other than jump in. Word of warning, it's not warm (check facial expressions and speed of exit), but when you have an indoor fireplace waiting for you back at The Barn Cottage, why not?
