About this property

The rural escape to wind down - cosy room separate from the main house.

The accommodation is the studio cottage which separated from the main house. The tranquillity and peacefulness of this secluded location with its eclectic charm is a place to chill out. HighRoost, just like many outback Australia landscapes has massive, harsh yet beautiful views that change with the season. The kind of views that has inspired artist of many forms, from Nolan, McCubbin, Boyd, Namatjira and Heysen. In fact, The Cedars home to both Hans Heysen’s studio – Australia’s oldest artist’s studio and Nora Heysen’s studio, with some 200 original works on show. Amongst the rolling hills you can find the Langhorne Creek vineyards, The Monarto Safari Park, the largest outside Africa. Horse drawn carriage rides. Lots off stunning little country towns and markets to visit and eat out. Equally, if want to take it a little quietly, HighRoost, has many little nooks and seating areas to enjoy what nature has to offer. Note the last 4 kM is a dirt road with several small creek crossings.
