Linnaeus Farm, Berry - by Linnaeus Collection
Summary:
Linnaeus Farm, one of the South Coast’s most picturesque and recognised properties, is set on 3.5 hectares of lush, manicured grounds, just a few minutes from the bustling, historic village of Berry, NSW. Berry oozes country charm and sophistication, and is also just a 10-minute drive from renowned Seven Mile Beach and its long stretches of pristine sands.
The Space:
When you drive through the stately, stone entryway and the gates close quietly behind you, Linnaeus Farm invites you to make time, just for you. Slow the clock down a bit and immerse yourself in laid-back, 5-star luxury in this home away from home while you enjoy Mother Nature at her best - expansive 360-degree views of the rolling, green countryside dotted with cows, and a dramatic escarpment and Saddleback Mountain beyond.
The property is a masterclass in high-end finishes and a minimalist, warm aesthetic. There are separate entertaining areas, open-plan kitchen, living, dining areas, all flooded with natural light. Hand-made ceramics and bathroom tiles, oversized rain shower heads and a deep free-standing bath is are featured in one of the luxury bathrooms. And come night-time, you’ll sink into the luxury of hotel-standard beds.
Spend a balmy summer in the gardens or by the resort-style pool, or in the cooler months, roast marshmallows over the fire pit at sunset. Enjoy a moment of zen with meditation or yoga in the lake house. For deep, restorative healing, step into the dedicated wellness area. Here you can, purify and detoxify in the cutting-edge infrared sauna, or invigorate your body with the intense heat of the steam hot rock sauna before completing the circuit with a bracing, full-body immersion in the ice bath. Linnaeus Farm is a year-round escape for a soul satisfying stay.

Beautiful property
The property is true to the pictures and it was perfect for our multi generational family annual get together. Close to Berry and the beach - but also happy to stay on the property itself.
A property like this needs a lot of care and it is taken care of. I suppose my one down side was the presence of a caretaker there every day and arriving early on the day of check out. That aspect impacted on our sense of privacy.

Linnaeus Farm
An excellent location with many amenities; sauna, pool, bocce and grounds for children to play. Clean and well appointed, with fantastic views, balconies and BBQ to enjoy. Kitchens up stairs and downstairs offered good options. Some minor irritations; delivery truck dropping off a pallet, maintenance men working and mowing lawns during the day when baby asleep, lack of bathroom mat, and upstairs google device not functioning. Highly recommended overall.
