The perfect spot
We all had a really amazing time, spent hours by the fire taking in all the surroundings. The property was perfect so much space and so warm with the indoor fire and had everything we needed so we didn’t have to go anywhere.. the kids said it was the best holiday house they have stayed in ♥️♥️

Secluded retreat in Kangaroo Valley
What a lovely home and a beautiful spot on the Upper Kangaroo River! We had a lovely time at this riverside home, and especially enjoyed the nightly wombat visits in the yard! Yarrawa winery is walking distance and a fun afternoon of wine-tasting. Just take note, boots a good idea in the grass to avoid leeches….
