About This Property

Country charm and trainspotting opportunities abound at this quaint cottage that also welcomes your furry friends. The whole family including your pooch can stay and explore the wonderful surrounds of Exeter and Bundanoon or stay in for the day and make the most of the large furnished shed with slow combustion wood heater while your pet explores the fully fenced garden.

While the railways' backdrop of country trains occasionally rumbling by nextdoor, it may not be for everyone. However, it adds a certain nostalgic feel of days gone by, and there is much history associated with the railway siding, which you can read all about in the guest compendium at the property.

You or some of your guests may even like to consider arriving for your stay by train - practically stepping off the platform and a short stone's throw onto the front veranda! This extremely interesting property has seen various upgrades over the years, making it a superb and quaint place to stay.

It is a classic weatherboard cottage retaining a lot of its original features; high ceilings, internal lining boards and timber flooring updated (but not new or modern) bathroom with separate toilet and electric kitchen.

Construction is Western Red Cedar with an iron roof and wide Jarrah and Kauri Pine floorboards.

The furnishing and decorating are all very sympathetic and comfortable.

The house is warm and cozy in winter.

This is an ideal location to stay at for visiting local wineries, Brigadoon is Bundanoon, Highlands Fling, attending weddings at Montrose Berry Farm, Southern Highlands Winery, Eling Forest, and all the Highlands have to offer including the Glow Worm Glen, Solar Springs, Morton National Park.
