Little Kingsley farmstay, cottage on a little farm 1hr from Sydney & Wollongong

This beautiful two bedroom cottage accommodation is situated on part of our ten acre rural property with views of the dam and overlooking the paddocks where our sheep and cows roam freely. The property is partly surrounded by natural Australian bush which is home to kangaroos, cockatoos, kookaburras and many more varieties of Australian animals. The cottage is well appointed with a large kitchen including dishwasher and microwave and the living area has a slow combustion wood fire to keep you warm and cozy in the winter while enjoying a glass of red or cup of hot chocolate. The cottage also has ducted air conditioning to keep you cool in the summer. The large outdoor area includes a gas barbeque and outdoor dining as well as a long bench with bar stools where you can just sit, watch the cows grazing and enjoy the scenery. We are located just 2.5 kms from Thirlmere township and the NSW Train Museum which offers steam train rides every weekend and regular visits from Thomas the Tank Engine and is also home to the Steam Train Festival which is held annually in March. Thirlmere Lakes National Park and the spectacular Mermaid Pools and Potholes are within a ten minute drive with many bushwalking trails and swimming holes. Cedar Creek orchard is a five minute drive away where you can pick your own seasonal fruit and they also offer apple juice, cider and honey for sale, check their website for bookings and dates. Whether you want to just get away from it all, relax and unwind or bring the family and checkout the local attractions. We are only about an hours drive from Sydney and about half an hour from Bowral and the Southern Highlands, perfect for a family getaway or a romantic weekend. Also only 50 minutes drive from the Wollongong beaches.

Great stay at the farm and perfect location for a couple of nights while visiting Thomas at the Rail Museum. Our 3 year old loved saying good morning to the animals.

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.
