Family Wedding
For our son's wedding, we stayed with our family in the main house and my son stayed in the cottage onsite with his groomsmen. Being December, the pool was a handy spot to cool off. The house and grounds were perfect for pre- wedding photographs. Overall, we couldn't have chosen a better place. Very happy with everything.

Fabulous place
I would definitely recommend this place for bigger groups. The only thing you need to really pick up on is that two of the rooms are 'adjoining' but what they don't say is that they are adjoining with a light curtain. it would be fine with a family but it was a bit awkward with two of our couples but they got over it. Any recommendation I would make to the owner would be to fill that in and if you want it adjoining still - add a door. really lovely place though and despite the adjoining room - we would still go back there.

Long time friends
We are a group of 9 school friends who have known each other for 50 years. We get together all over Australia twice a year. Our stay at Araceli was wonderful. Beautiful property with adequate bedding for us. Warm and comfortable. Beautiful grounds as well. Highly recommend for a large group or family

Perfect property for my daughter’s pre-wedding preparations
Our family, my daughter and her bride tribe loved our 3-night stay at Arafel Park. From the beautiful and extensive gardens to the charming architecture and relaxed yet elegant country styling, it was the perfect place to get ready for and recover from a Southern Highlands wedding. Plenty of space for a large group to spread out in the house and separate cottage, as well as ample parking. At one stage we had our 6 cars plus another 6 for all the makeup artists, photographer, etc. All the amenities to make you feel at home, and great photo opportunities at every turn. We’re already trying to think of an excuse for a return visit in the near future.
