This house is beautiful! We walked in and said, Wow! Spacious, clean, quiet, filled with interesting artefacts and furniture, very well equipped with everything we could want to use, and there were many extra inclusions we didn't expect. All linen, fittings and inclusions are high quality, e.g. luxurious towels, shower drains that work efficiently, comfortable beds, and eco friendly THANKYOU" soaps, shampoo etc) The outside area is very private and pretty, and visited by many birds. Shady and sunny spots, outdoor setting, barbeque, attractive garden. Off street parking.Walk to Alexandra Lake and to main Street.Everything about this stay, from booking to check out, was a breeze. We get together once a year and now we want to come back here each time.Adam was very easy to communicate with, and he gave us a few extra tips via the Stayz messaging facility.We all agreed there were not enough superlatives to describe this lovely cottage.

Great place and location

The house was fabulous with a lovely garden, cosy lounge room and comfortable beds. The location is perfect with most things accessible without driving: we rode to the Welby mountain bike trails, walked to Lake Alexandra, went on a hike from the house, walked to cafes, restaurants and the pub. We only drove to go to the bakery and the Mittagong mushroom tunnels. The train station is in walking distance too. Everything was well organised and easy. Adam and Nat we'll be back.

Weekend away

The cottage was all that and more. The bedrooms were very comfortable and spacious. The lounge area was very cosy with the gas heather and our party of four were able to stretch out comfortably on the couch. The kitchen had all the utensils and tools for cooking. The hosts were very generous in supplying a couple of very thoughtful arrival items including a small birthday cake. We loved it and would definitely look to book again.

A classy, peaceful oasis

This home away from home was the perfect destination for four siblings and their partners to enjoy whilst they attended a family wedding in the highlands. The house is simply stunning and so well appointed. Thank you for creating a place of ‘welcome’, beauty and serenity. Marianne and family

American Wedding Party

This place was the absolute cutest, most comfy location we stayed in during our journey down under. We traveled from the states to attend the wedding of a childhood friend at the book barn. This location was perfect for our two families and all the kiddos. Close to amenities and close to the venue. Recommend 100%

Adam & Nat have a beautiful house in a really great spot! A really central place to explore the Southern Highlands from. We stayed 3 nights and had everything we needed in the kitchen to cook a beautiful Easter roast dinner for our local family, used the gorgeous yard for an egg hunt for the kids and the lounge room for playing charades. There were so many thoughtful and appreciated inclusions. It was so relaxing and comfortable. The beds are divine. The bathrooms are lovely. Everything was perfect. You should definitely stay here. We will stay again for sure!

Hidden Historic Gem

We chose this accommodation because of the glowing reviews from previous guests and we certainly were not disappointed. Our booking and check-in were seamless. Adam and Nat were responsive and most accommodating of our requests.The home and gardens were just beautiful! I felt like I had stepped back into a bygone era, yet we still had all the modern cons including 2 newly renovated bathrooms and kitchen.The range free eggs, wine and chocolates were a very personal touch which were appreciated. We were close to local restaurants, bakeries, cafes and pubs which was great.I highly recommend our stay at this beautiful residence and will certainly be back when it is cooler so we can have a glass of red around the fire!

Great location, old world charm

My girlfriends and I (five women in total) had a very enjoyable stay. Although the weather was wet and drizzly and we could not make use of the beautiful gardens we enjoyed our time at the house. The bedrooms, bathrooms and all amenities, linen, towels etc are top quality, overall very clean uncomfortable.
