Gorgeous cottage on a country property
We chose this property as a farm stay and we had an event at K Ranch in Mount Hunter which was a 20 min drive away. Beautiful cottage. We woke up to a cure of cows eating grass nearby. It’s a quiet location, with fireplace and fire pit. The nights get colder here than in the city. We enjoyed the place very much. Thank you.

Was very relaxing stay. Property was clean and had good amenities. There isn't a washing machine due, I believe, to tank water being in use but there is a laundromat not too far. Loved the sheep and cows. Would be happy to stay again

Wonderful little weekend getaway
Such a lovely little getaway with my young family. The kids loved the cows and sheep that always came up to say hi. House was clean, tidy and comfortable and the inside fire was so lovely. Close to picton (10 min drive) for a meal.

Lovely Stay at Little Kingsley
What an amazing little property and fantastic location. It was a real treat to stay with my family in Little Kingsley. My 1 year old absolutely loved feeding the cows and sheep every morning with bread rolls provided by the owner. Lovely extras such as kids toys/books and board games. The only things that I would suggest is a washing machine, especially for people staying for longer periods, lock on internal door to garage for toddlers, and a fire guard. Thank you for having us and we will definitely be back to visit again.

A Beautiful Stay!!
Loved it!! 10 minutes away from many activities for the family- the rail museum, pony rides, animal farms. My 3 kids aged 5 to 9 years had a blast making friends with the cows and sheep on the property, roasting marshmallows with the fire pit. The fire place was a gem and kept us warm and the place was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. Also loved the little touches of the loaf of bread and fresh eggs in the fridge, Thank you Alaine! It was amazing, I’m so pleased I found this place, We are definitely planning a comeback holiday!

Lovely cosy little farmstay
A beautiful area to stay in and enjoy the countryside. We visited for a weekend away from Sydney with the kids and they enjoyed seeing the cows and sheep and kangaroos. The cosy fireplace was perfect in the evenings and some nice food options in Picton. Alaine was great with communication and very helpful at giving us advice for the local area. Thanks for a great stay

Relaxing Farm Stay
Visited Sydney from Brisbane for 2 nights and booked this accomdation for me and my family. Beautiful, tidy home! Kids loved the sheep and cows in the backyard especially when the cows came to the fence so they could pat them. Quite chilly so was able to make good use of fireplace! Well thought out property for guests and very comfortable place to stay! Highly recommend this property for a luxe, farm-styled stay. Easy access and great communication with owner

Loved our farm stay
We loved every minute of the long weekend we spent at the farm. The house is very comfortable, cosy and well taken care of and it definitely was designed with guests comfort in mind. The patio is lovely and we enjoyed our meals outside. Our daughter really loved all the toys and books she found at the house (such a nice touch!), as well as observing the animals. The farm is pretty close to Sydney and many interesting places to explore with kids. Overall, we were very happy with our time at the farm and would definitely recommend it to our friends.

Perfect Farmstay cosy cottage
We had a fantastic stay! We loved the house - really clean and modern. Kitchen was very well appointed with many things needed for home cooking and for the BBQ. The fireplace kept us cozy and we all enjoyed the outdoor fire pit. It was great to see all the cows and sheep grazing on the property and the kids loved feeding them hay over the fence just a few meters from our back door. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The location and cottage was great. Very clean and comfortable and equipped with everything we needed. It’s quiet and peaceful. We especially liked the fresh bread and eggs when we arrived. Lots of games for families and a cosy fireplace that was all ready for us to just light. The host was extremely friendly and very helpful. Would definitely stay again!

A Little Slice Of Heaven
The place was clean and perfect location to stay for our race in Picton. The place had everything that we want and need. I was just sad that we weren't able to stay longer to enjoy the place more. They have lambs and cows too which are very friendly.Alaine even left some bread, eggs and butter in the fridge as a welcome present for us which I think is a very nice touch. The only and minor thing missing in the house was a full mirror . The only mirror this house have was the one in the bathroom.Other than that, I find it perfect and looking forward to staying again to relax and explore the place next time.

Beautiful Cottage & Property
From the moment we drove in the gates, we fell in love with the property, we were lucky enough to be blessed with 4 little baby lambs to enjoy watching running around with their mumma & the mumma cow & her growing boy, they all we’re happy to come & visit with us. The house is lovely, very easy to check in, it was lovely inside & very clean! The eggs & fresh bread on arrival is such a wonderful touch, plus butter in the fridge too & Alaine even had the fire ready to go for us, which we used to keep us warm the whole weekend & they provided us with pre-cut wood making it super easy. The only thing for us is, we prefer a softer mattress but in saying that we still all got some sleep, I would have loved a long mirror in one of the bedrooms. We will definitely be back again, we loved it that much💚

The kids enjoyed interacting with the animals and the indoor and outdoor fires were a nice bonus. Great location with easy access to Picton and the NSW train museum and surrounds. Lots of inclusions including cooking gear, kids games, firewood, linen etc. Overall a great and relaxing experience.
