About this property

Love Shack - 1 bedroom cosy cottage!

Special! Stay 2 nights and receive a third night free! Conditions apply.
The Love Shack is a small 1 bedroom cottage at Rathkell's Farm just a short drive from the village. It features a fully equipped kitchen as well as a barbeque on the deck. The lounges are nice and comfy and perfect for snuggling up together to watch a good movie or just enjoy each others company while the gas heater keeps you nice and warm in winter.
The recently renovated bathroom has a large double sized shower and a picture window looking out over the surrounding bushland and the whole cottage has a lovely blue & green colour scheme and has a very relaxing feel to it. The polished timber floorboards complete the picture and you cant help but forget the rest of the world during your stay. All in all a romantic weekend away at the Love Shack is sure to impress and delight your special someone.
Surrounded by bushland, you can go for walks and see the some of the local wildlife, or visit the beautiful village of Kangaroo Valley where you can explore the many cafes and boutique shops that offer a variety of wares.
Rathkells farm has plenty of river frontage for guests to use and is perfect for swimming and kayaking over summer.
Rathkell's farm is also home of The Wood Shed which sleeps up to 6 people and The Pavilion which sleeps 12 over 5 bedrooms and has a pool. Although the houses are far enough away from each other for privacy , they are perfect to book together for a family group etc

Nice nature environment. The property has been refurbished and nicer colour scheme than photos show! Some disappointing things though such as no fire pit (would have been lovely surroundings to have a fire in), holes in outside wall of cabin that hadn’t been fixed in a long time. No details book advising of things, just stumbled across the fact they had Netflix and wifi. Was still a cute stay though.

Beautiful area to unwind, clean and cosy. Had everything we needed. The only thing that I would suggest is that there could be an outside bath. Also maybe update other sites with the amenities as they were general for all accommodation. No pool where we were. Also photos a little deceiving, we thought that the river was close but it was quiet a hike and not that easy accessible. We had a great time. Would recommend

Beautiful surroundings placed on the hill.
A clean, well kept cottage with a modern bathroom and lots of Kangaroos hopping around. An ideal place to stay to get away from everything.

Beautiful setting for a weekend away
This property was very comforatble for a couple having a simple relaxing weekend. Clean and well appointed in a great secluded location. Our only problem was that someone took our key on the evening before we arrived - not the fault of the team in Kangaroo Valley, and they jumped in and sorted it all out at 11:30pm at night. Great service.

Nice for a short stay
A very cosy cottage - my partner and I had a nice stay here. But it was a bit over-priced for what it was, given the location (slightly out of town).
