The Reset
Adventure in Baerami, Country NSW, NSW, AU
Ever find yourself needing a break from the hustle and bustle of city living? The Old Dairy at Baerami delivers in droves - pardon the pun. This quaint 1940s dairy shed has been repurposed into the perfect farm stay oasis for two. Nestled on a 150-acre farm boasting panoramic views of the Wollemi and Goulburn River National Parks it’s the perfect place to sit back, relax and reset.
Driving down the road to your cozy getaway you’re met by the white barn doors- a hark back to the building's humble origin, however, these days there’s nothing humble about The Old Dairy. The space is vibrant and inviting, urging you to take a moment to enjoy the fresh Upper Hunter air. Snuggle up with a book on the day bed, picnic amongst the olive trees or enjoy a quiet moment amongst the fireplace - you can’t go wrong!
Taking time to unplug isn’t always easy, but here it’s effortless. Enjoy the seclusion, enjoy the reset.

Things We Did
- Winery
- Hike
- Town
If you’d like to sample some of the region's produce, there is an abundance to choose from! We visited Two Rivers Winery, a beautiful vineyard with even better wine! Be sure to sample some of the wines they have to offer, or if the moment takes you, the cheeseboard- delish! The view from the top of the winery isn’t to be missed, a short walk or drive from the cellar door amongst the vines!
Take in the incredible vista from the Denman Tower Lookout. The unobstructed views over the town and neighbouring areas are truly spectacular! The short 1.7km trail is steep in parts so good walking shoes are recommended, or you might find yourself slipping and sliding your way down if the path is a bit wet!
If you choose to head into town, walk down the high street and be greeted by a touch of old-world charm. Be sure to drop into Fresh Denman, a must-visit! The food is excellent, plus it also stocks great products from the Hunter region and further afield.
