About this property

The Guesthouse - Hill End

You'll find the heritage village of Hill End just 270km northwest of Sydney in New South Wales, Australia.

Hill End’s finest self-contained guesthouse accommodation, The Guesthouse - Hill End, is set on a quiet private two-acre block hosting up to four guests in a two-bedroom cottage.

Take your morning coffee to the front verandah, pull up a seat and breathe in the fresh country air. Observe friendly locals – you’ll find an abundance of birdlife and curious kangaroos regularly exploring your temporary backyard.

This two bedroom cottage is perfect for those travelling on their own, as a couple or with friends and family. With modern vintage furnishings, free WiFi, access to Netflix via Smart TV, a fully equipped kitchen, laundry, an established orchard where guests are encouraged to pick + eat in season, you'll feel right at home and relaxed in this heavenly setting.

The combustion fireplace keeps you warm in winter and air conditioning cool in summer. An outdoor firepit on the grounds allows you to reconnect with nature in comfort. Take a stroll in the garden, enjoy the change of seasons you really only get to experience in the country.

Take a short walk into town while enjoying the heritage streetscape and tree lined Avenue that has inspired many Hill End artists, meet the locals at the Royal Hotel, replenish supplies at the General Store, lose yourself in the rooms of memorabilia at the Hill End Heritage Centre in town or at nearby History Hill Museum. You may simply choose to be inspired by the beauty and heritage of this historic gold rush town.

Just an hour's drive from either Mudgee or Bathurst, or three and a half hours north-west of Sydney. This is the perfect hideaway.

We look forward to hosting you.

With love, Casey + Cara

Perfect place to stay

We booked here so we had a comfortable place to stay while I took my father to the Bathurst 1000 (his bucket list dream for his 80th) - and while it was an hour away from the car racing, this beautiful cottage was the perfect way to relax. We loved everything - the welcome card and local wine, great books and magazines to read, the firepit, comfy beds, breakfast foods and kitchen goods, birdlife, kangaroos. Highly recommend this as a place to stay in a part of the world I hadn't known about. Great communication with owners and can't wait to go back.

Relaxing getaway

The property was just what we had expected from the listing. It was cosy, very comfortable, with everything we could have needed. The property was beautiful and tranquil, with lots of birds, and kangaroos. Casey and Cara were quick to respond to communication and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

Hidden hideaway

We stayed at The Guesthouse for three days and two nights were delighted with how well equipped and beautiful this property was. Hidden amongst the native bush land and animals our girls enjoyed the property both inside and out and so did we. A true weekend away where we could all unwind and relax and not worry about missing out on anything or wishing we had brought something (it was all provided!). We will be recommending this place to our friends and family and hopefully we’ll be back too!

About the host

Hosted by Cara George

Your hosts, Casey and Cara live locally in Hill End and are passionate about others enjoying their heritage town as much as they do. Casey is 4th generation Hill End and the two found love when Cara came to town searching for her family history from the gold rush era (at the pub!). Two years later, Cara decided to take the tree change from her busy lifestyle in the big smoke in Sydney to live in Hill End. Now, Casey and Cara enjoy their relaxed country lifestyle and are kept busy with their cheeky identical twin boys.

Why they chose this property

Take your morning coffee to the front verandah, pull up a seat and breathe in the fresh country air. Observe the friendly locals – you’ll find an abundance of birdlife and curious roos regularly exploring your temporary backyard.
