Cottage holiday rentals in Southern Tablelands

Absolutely beautiful cottage set amongst some of the most beautiful gardens and trees, amazing spa hotub and the cosiest fireplace on cool nights. Highly recommend.

The photos don't do this place justice , it's beautiful and tranquil. Everything was nice and clean. The two extra bedrooms are external (just FYI) we didn't read the description properly as it was very last minute for my mum's funeral but we made it work. Fire by the river was amazing.

We booked Moonshine Cottage as a weekend away with friends. I didn’t realise it was so close to the (very quiet) main street which was a bonus. On our first night we had dinner at Ladbroke Distillery and Brewhouse right next door which had delicious pizza and cocktails.

The cottage is lovely facing a paddock of horses and cows. We loved being so close to nature. The interior was warm and full of character. We loved loved our stay. We came for winery tours and wine tastings famous in the local area. And in the evening enjoyed warming up in the outdoor jacuzzi that Sam kindly made up for us with a fire. Highly recommend this experience.

EL Dorado is the perfect little escape to tranquillity. Elise has an absolutely wonderful job as setting a great vibe for this place. With every intricate detail, from the books to feather pens to mismatched chairs, even the bed linen had us feeling great. The wood fired hot tub, gave a little extra romantic feel to watch the beautiful sun setting. Your eye to detail is none like I've ever seen Elise! What a wonderful space you have created for all walks of life to enjoy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. And we will be back, that's certain for sure. Highly recommend to take good quality camera or if you have a galaxy phone, to take pictures at night of the stars! Elise has really thought of everything to make this stay very enjoyable. Thank you We will be back very soon! Izzy & Omar

So great will be back

We had a great stay, it was as described and suited our family of four perfectly. We met Mandy upon check-in, she was very welcoming and we hope stay again in the future.

We had a fantastic stay. The cottage was clean, cozy and as described. It’s in a peaceful location and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. Host was responsive to our messages too. Best of all- dog friendly. Recommend for anyone travelling with a dog or just looking for a comfortable and quiet retreat.

We had such a lovely stay! The Bach is cute and homely. The kayaks were great fun, and we explored the area. Beds super comfy, coffee machine great. Thank you a lovely stay Greer!

A delightful cosy cottage welcomed us, and the port decanter was a lovely touch after our Friday night drive from Sydney. Delightfully warm, the cottage was perfect for our family for a cool Southern Tablelands weekend. Lovely bed linen - yes linen - a comfortable lounge room and a large well stocked kitchen were all great. The surrounding properties were in the distance which gave a real sense of being in the country. All in all, a great home for our family weekend away.

We both thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Fantoosh. The place was so relaxing and cosy and every detail was very well thought out in the cottage. The addition of the morning treats made our stay. We will definitely be back!

A beautifully appointed place a stones throw from the beach! Great for four adults and two kids for our Easter beach trip. Nicky and Anita were very helpful and communicative hosts. Would 10/10 recommend!

We wanted a quiet break from the city for ourselves and young children and the house was fantastic- warm, open planned, cosy, especially with the fire on, nice views and none of us wanted to leave. We watched the stars at night and to the kids delight we even saw a shooting star. The Taralga Wildlife Park nearby was great as the kids got to hold lots of animals and the staff were so friendly. Look forward to returning to Michael's beautiful home.

What a gem. We lived the location it was super cosy, clean, and tidy nothing to do but enjoy after a superb rise along the rail trail. Highly recommend.

We absolutely loved our stay for a girls weekend away. The house is gorgeous and really well styled. Lovely extra touches such as a basket of toiletries which was quite needed when I forgot my toothbrush! Jodie also left a lovely basket of goodies for us including carrots to feed the donkeys.

Thank you so much for a great stay. We loved sitting on the front verandah in the morning to catch the winter sun. The garden was lovely. We also loved the back deck where we enjoyed the afternoon sun. A lovely little basket of goodies and lots of bits and pieces in the pantry. We will be back.

Excellent experience and very peaceful. Lisa went above and beyond over my expectations. Left homemade baked treats for me on the kitchen table. offered to change linens after having to extend my stay. Kitchen was stocked with essentials like coffee, salt, pepper, aluminum foil, etc. Approved my request to extend my stay promptly. If you spend a lot of time in cities I encourage you to step outside at night and take in the incredible view of the stars and sky. PS be very careful driving towards Tumbarumba especially after dark the animals are out and everywhere however it is a nice little drive when you hit the canyon!

Dave and Diane, what a memorable experience you gave my family members who are here to experience Australian way of life!!! You made that happen!! From the firewood fireplace! They even cooked on top of the fire stove their 3-minutes noodles!!! And warm up their Filipino breads in the morning. Toasted their 7-eleven frozen sandwiches and made them delicious!!! They had turns during the night to top up the firewood that was lovingly provided by hosts for free. To make the epitome of their stay, as we were leaving at 6:00am on frozen and covered frost cars, they saw several kangaroos staring at them as we drove along your path road out of the property. They said they will never forget that experience in their whole life and it was what they never thought they will experience at all. They were gobsmacked and had no words to express how they felt to see these in their most natural settings. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts for being so wonderful, kind and lovely

Had the best time at Canyonleigh. Tranquil location, gorgeous animals and access to a river. The place itself was very well equipped, clean and tidy. The best part about the entire stay however was Mel. She was extremely responsive and available for all of our queries. She offered a farm experience to us in the morning. When we needed honey, cinnamon and extra towels she was quick to provide. Furthermore we needed a ride into Bowral and she not only offered to give us one, but gave as quite an informed and impassioned tour of the area. We had the best time and would love to revisit again. Our cup feels very full now and I am really grateful!

Janet is an amazing host. Nice studio for a weekend getaway and very peaceful. The dogs and goats brought joy to the stay and her instructions for finding the place were very clear. Would come back for another weekend stay!

Gorgeous little cottage, felt very secluded and private. Comfortable beds, air con to warm the place up, amazing shower. Perfect for what we needed this past weekend.

I had the most wonderful stay at this charming cottage in Murrumbateman! From the moment I booked, the hosts were exceptional—communicative, thoughtful, and incredibly kind. Every detail was considered, making check-in and the entire experience seamless and stress-free. The cottage itself is an absolute gem—warm, cosy, and beautifully appointed, with everything you need for a relaxing getaway. The location is perfect: peaceful and private, yet just a short drive from wineries and local attractions. I felt right at home and didn’t want to leave. I can’t recommend this place highly enough and would return in a heartbeat. Thank you again to the wonderful hosts for such a memorable stay! Thank you again Gabrielle and Doug.
