Arcadian Holiday Accommodation Southern Highlands Farmstay and River Retreat
Rest. Relax. Recuperate.
Welcome to our Southern Highlands farmstay and river retreat nestled amongst eucalypt and pine trees and surrounded by the Wollondilly River. Only 1.5 hours from Sydney or Canberra, and 30 minutes to the boutique shops, historical towns, and numerous events of the Southern Highlands. Your luxurious self-contained cabin is the perfect weekend or mid-week getaway in a secluded country setting. Our onsite beauty and massage treatments turn this property into your own private resort.
Enjoy swimming, canoeing, fishing or just relax, unwind and take in the views of our 100 acre 100% solar and wind powered scenic property. We offer breakfast baskets, BBQ trays, picnic baskets, and cheese platters to accompany our local wines and bar menu. On the colder days snuggle up inside by the slow combustion fire with a good book, or have some fun with the variety of board/card games available within your cabin.
Sitting on the front deck you will see a morning and afternoon parade of native animals and hear the beautiful song of our lovely wild birds. Within our 2km stretch of the Wollondilly River there are platypus, fish, deep cool pools, and shallow wading areas. Maybe take an evening walk around the property to catch sight of a wombat, possum or owl, or simply sit by the outside fire-pit, toast marshmallows, and soak up the vast night sky speckled with millions of stars.
This is a 100 acre property with horses, alpacas, chickens, goats, dogs, bunnies and guinea pigs. You are invited to partake in the afternoon feeding of the animals - which includes, but not extensively, brushing the horses, collecting any eggs, patting the goats, and cuddling the bunnies and guinea pigs. Please note that if animals aren't for you then you don't have to go through paddocks with animals or interact with the animals at all.
The cabin consists of two bedrooms (2 king beds, or 1 king bed and 2 king single beds), spacious lounge/dining area, fully equipped kitchen with 5 burner gas oven/stove, slow combustion fire, flat screen TV with DVD player, BBQ facilities, outdoor fire-pit, washing machine and tub, audio system with USB port, and games/books.
All linen and towels are supplied and included in the tariff. Also included is all firewood for the inside fire, and the two outside fires (one beside your cabin, the other by the river).
