About this house rental

The Stables is a fully self-contained studio on 200 acres located 15 minutes north of beautiful, historic Gundaroo, NSW.

Strategically located just 15 mins off the Federal Hwy if travelling from Sydney to Canberra/Melbourne.

Detached from the main residence, guests will be surrounded by farm and native animals. As a wildlife release ground, the property is frequented by kangaroos, wallabies, wallaroos, wombats and echidnas. Bird enthusiasts will also take delight in the visiting bird life which includes the resident wedge tail eagles.

Guests have access to the property with hikes available in a national park like setting.

For those intrigued by rural life, spend time with the animals and explore. For the wildlife warriors, learn about the ongoing conversation efforts and challenges while experiencing these amazing creatures up close and personal.

Undertaking the journey of a lifetime and riding (horse) the National Bicentennial / National Horse Trail between Healesville, Vic. and Cooktown Qld? We have you covered! Located only 4.2 km off the trail both rider and horse can overnight and rest. A veterinary crush, undercover holding yards and round yard are available.

Taking advantage of Canberra’s amazing paragliding and hang-gliding sites? No problem, we are located less than 10 mins from the Lake George launches and landing back at the property is a breeze!

Simply want to explore the region? We are surrounded by some of the best cool climate wineries around. (Lerida Estate and Tallagandra Hill to name a few). Better yet, dine at the critically acclaimed, Grazing Restaurant in Gundaroo whilst exploring the history of the village and the origin of Banjo Paterson’s famous poem ‘The Gundaroo Bullock’.

Are you the owner of a free-flight trained parrot and looking for the ultimate location to stay with your bird in order to free flight? We have T-stands scattered around the property for flights and recall training. Located at the end of a no-through-road with no built up areas or traffic, your bird can stretch its wing's and soar the open skies while you laze by the dam with a wine, relishing in their freedom.

Notes for prospective guests:

The room comprises of a QS bed, TV, bar fridge, lounge and reading material.

The kitchenette provides the modern conveniences for a comfortable stay and a complimentary breakfast (including cook-your-own) is provided.

The road from Gundaroo Village to the studio is dirt (approx. 15 km) and accessible by car and 4WD.

The property is a hobby farm. We kindly ask if you open a gate, you close it (and confirm it is securely closed).

As this is a wildlife release ground, we request you respect the animals around you as they venture in to say hello.

The bungalow is located approx. 50m from the main residence; however you are afforded the privacy and freedom you deserve.

Bespoke wildlife packages are available for those interested in conservation (added cost which is a donation to a wildlife charity).

Every stay goes towards improving the property for both wildlife and guests and we are sincerely grateful for your patronage.

The perfect stay and host as I made my way down driving from Syd to Melb. Narelle was so responsive and prepared free breakfast according to my dietary requirements (halal) without me asking. I ended up staying another night as the comfort and warmth of the home, animals and nature was too beautiful to resist. It’s beautiful to see the mutual care and connection between Narelle and the rescued animals. Thanks so much

Absolutely loved this place!! A friend of ours referred it as a place we could take our macaw and free fly and it didn’t disappoint.The room was beautiful, well equipped and the welcoming touches were appreciated.The property is beautiful and we saw so much wildlife. We hiked for hours and a kangaroo followed us the entire way. We felt like we were on the movie set of Skippy.Best of all was cooking a BBQ and watching sunrise as Maverick flew around the property.Highly recommeded. An easy drive from Sydney, super stylish accommodation with everything you need,The host even located a large parrot cage for Maverick right next to our accommodation and undercover for when he wasn’t flying. Truly brilliant. We’ll be back (regularly)!

Narelle was an absolutely wonderful host she made us feel very welcomed during our stay. The accommodation was very clean and comfortable, and the farm setting was beautiful. We loved seeing all the animals, they added such a special touch to the experience. Narelle’s place is the perfect farm stay for a relaxing weekend getaway, and we couldn’t recommend it more highly.Thank you again Narelle!
