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!

We were wowed from the moment we arrived. The rooms and house are much bigger and brighter the photos suggest, the kitchen and bathrooms have been beautifully renovated, thoughtful luxury finishes like underfloor heating and bonus books and games for all ages. We would have loved to stay longer.

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.

A wonderful house to gather the family in. We were more than happy to spend time with everyone in the lounge or the kitchen/dining. The dining table is large enough to fit everyone, and also great to play games on.

Lovely home away from home

Ponsonby is a beautifully decorated property with all the comforts of home. Check in was very easy and we loved the little touches like the wine, chocolates and free range eggs. The garden is beautiful and we enjoyed taking multiple walks around Lake Alexandra which is only a short stroll down the road. This was our second stay at Ponsonby and we are keen to visit again. Thank you Adam and Nat.
