About this farm stay rental
Outdoor bath with hot running water, fresh air and a view. Lie back listen to the birds settle down for the night, watch the stars come out - and all from the bath! A truly unique and glorious experience.
Idyllic hideaway cottage on the boundary between the native forest and the farm just over half an hour from Orange. Outdoor bath with hot water, fresh air and a view. 3 bedrooms to suit up to 6 people. Fully equipped kitchen. New indoor bathroom. Comfortable living area with wood fire and magnificent view. Native garden with bonfire area and views across the rolling hills to Mount Canobolas. Explore the forest, walk in the paddocks, or along the creek, see the birds, kangaroos, wallabies, emus, eagles, wombats, and maybe an echidna or a platypus. Enjoy the peace and quiet.
The Rockies now has paintings by local artists for sale hanging in the house.
10 minutes to Cudal or Manildra. 30 minutes to vineyards, restaurants, Canowindra, Molong or 40 minutes to Orange.
Dirt road access - both public road and on-farm track, conditions vary on both. 4WD is not required but at least average clearance is necessary.
We cannot take pets because of native animals that frequent the garden.
Sunny house with
1 Queen bed in master bedroom
1 Double bed in second bedroom
2 King singles in third bedroom - can be converted to King Double
All with built in cupboards and plenty of space.
Slow combustion heater.
Can have bonfire in yard between 1st April and 1st October - as long as it is not too dry.
Free to air TV
Good mobile reception - although you can pretend there is none.
Lots of books, boardgames and puzzles.
Kitchen stocked with basics as well as some local goodies and a little produce from the farm vegie garden.
Beautiful walks across the paddocks or through the bush right at your door.
Space for the kids to run around, ride their bikes or just potter about in the yard or the paddock. You can watch from the recliners on the verandah with a coffee or a glass of wine.
Wineries close by and all the other attractions of Cabonne and Orange districts.
Handy location for Orange Food and Wine Festivals, Orange Winter Festival Canowindra Balloon Festival and National Field Day at Borenore.
There are 3 golf courses in Orange, plus courses in other surrounding towns - Canowindra, Molong, Forbes, Parkes, Cowra, all within easy distance.
Nangar National Park is only a short distance away, however, you can walk straight out the door into our Conservation Area as well.
We are a working farm, and on the edge of a real forest, so children must be kept in sight at all times to ensure their safety. Although The Rockies is 2km from farm sheds so it is very quiet.
The creek is on the farm, but is 2km from The Rockies house. In wetter periods there are streams closer to the house. Kids or adults can play at building dams, paddle, etc, in any of these, season and safety permitting.
Our weather is between that of Parkes and Orange. It is colder in winter than Sydney - but not as cold as Orange. The house has heating and air conditioning. We are happy to share our pool if you are here in hot weather.
We are in the country, there will always be wildlife, from kangaroos, emus and eagles to snakes, lizards and insects.
We occasionally have floods which prevent access to the farm. If this occurs and your booking has to be cancelled, we will refund the full cost of the booking, except the Stayz fee, or you can change your booking to another date.
Early check in is almost always available if required.

Beautiful place with beautiful local artwork. The cabin was beautiful- a place you immediately want to call home. The fresh herbs and spinach left by Sally was one of my favourite touches.The outdoor bath was lovely too. Wildlife. Aplenty The location was about 40 minutes away from Orange as leaving the property took ten minutes because of the dirt road. The drive in looks scary as it's off road but you get used to it just keep in mind.

Cosy cottage surrounded by abundant flora and fauna.An array of yummo goodies greeted us on arrival. Comfy beds, modern bathroom and plenty of kitchenware for dinners indoorsThe walks behind the cottage are well worth it to take in the view for miles and miles.The pics of the outdoor bath speak for themselves!

We had a truly wonderful getaway, peaceful, relaxing, and exactly what we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and Sally was an exceptional host.She kindly provided fresh vegetables and herbs for us, which was a lovely touch, and there were plenty of games to keep the kids entertained. The highlight of our trip was the campfire, spending quality time together as a family, away from the city and our devices, while enjoying nature and going for walks.It was a memorable experience, and we’re very grateful for the hospitality.We will be back

It was a great little cabin. A quiet getaway.
We did find that the main rubbish bin was full when we arrive and not much space for our general rubbish. The BBQ was dirty and been well used. We had no power all day Saturday which was no fault to the owners of the place but did effect us more then we thought it would. Especially when we still payed full price. Otherwise it was nice and owners are lovely.
