Cosy Farm Stay

Really enjoyed our stay at Beaudesert. A very quiet and peaceful farm stay. This very spacious, functional home with aircon/combustion heater/electric blankets kept us warm and cosy and the beds were really comfortable. Claire was a great host, she was quick to respond to any emails and very accommodating. When we visit Mudgee next time, we’re sure to stay again. Kind Regards Debbie and Co

Great location, convenient with beautiful rural setting

The property was as described, convenient to Gulgong, Mudgee and wineries. Lovely rural setting, fantastic views of the countryside, lovely big home where we had 8 adults and one toddler (could have had 2 more people also). Was good all being in one place together as we came for a wedding at a winery only 20 minutes away. The booking process was easy, all queries answered and Claire even provided cot and high chair. Claire was easy to deal with and was lovely to get a chance to meet and say hi when she called in to check we were ok. Will definitely stay again if we are ever over that way and will be sure to tell our friends and family how lovely it was.

Gorgeous farm stay

We went with our 2 young kids and some friends. The farm is absolutely beautiful and check in process easy... if you read your emails :) Hosts were amazing. We didn't see them except to wave hello from afar but felt very welcome. My two year old loved it. We met chickens, sheep and cows. I was a bit worried about my newborn waking others throughout the night but the layout meant we were far away from other bedrooms. The cottage kitchen is so well equipped. I can't recommend this place enough. It's about 20 minutes from mudgee but mudgee itself isn't much to look at. The landscape and setting is just so special. I can't recommend this place enough.

Inaccurate and misleading location on listing

The property itself is beautiful however be aware the location is misleading on the map as "Central Mudgee". I booked this listing as it was shown close to town and thought we would be able to get a taxi or walk home after dinner and drinks in Mudgee. The property is actually 18km north of Mudgee, and I did not find this out until the day before arriving. Our wine tour company charged us extra to get too and from the town and we were not able to stay in town for dinner as it was not guaranteed a taxi would take us home. The owner refused to accept any responsibility for the listings inaccuracy or refund us for the additional pick-up/drop-off charge due to the misleading location.

Country escape

Claire and Peter are lovely hosts and always accomodating, this is the second time we have stayed at their lovely cottage. Unfortunalely, we experienced very wet weather during our stay which turned out to be a little adventure for the kids as the road out became flooded. The cottage is spacious and accomodating, the kids loved the chickens and exploring the land. To improve and make the place shine I would suggest some basic maintenance and some new utensils such as frypans etc.. Hopefully we get better weather next time!

Beautiful farmstay

We had the pleasure of staying at The Cottage over the Easter weekend. It's a beautiful property and the Cottage is warm and homey with plenty of space for 6 adults and 4 children. The children had an amazing time feeding the sheep, goats, cows and chickens whilst the adults enjoyed the firepit and local wineries. Claire was a warm and accommodating host and we hope to visit the property again sometime in the future.

FARM GETAWAY

I took a group of ladies to Beaudesert Cottage, Mudgee for a relaxing getaway and that's exactly what we received. The farm stay was very peaceful and very suitable for the activities we had planned. Claire was welcoming with fresh eggs, milk and bread. The beds are extremely comfortable. Some attention needs to be paid to plumbing, live wasp nests, spiders and their thick webs but it's the country after all. Just 15 minutes out of Mudgee town centre, Beaudesert is in a perfect location.

Great stay at Beaudesert

We enjoyed our stay at the Beaudesert cottage. The place was spacious and could easily fit our group of 7 adults. Lots of kitchen utensils were available. Claire was a great host. We highly recommend this place for whoever wants to spend a few days away in the Mudgee countryside.

Mudgee getaway

Lovely farmstay near Mudgee. Warm and comfy house with plenty of space for the adult family to spread out. Claire was there to welcome and kindly supplied some fresh bread, eggs and milk on arrival. The Wifi worked well. There are a couple of fun walks on the property and a short 15 min drive into town. My hubby went mountain biking around and had a great time. Will stay again when next in Mudgee.

Fantastic family friendly farm stay

We stayed at this property with another family for four nights. It was fantastic! The kids absolutely loved the farm and seeing the animals each morning. There was plenty of space to ride their bikes and have a game of cricket. The location was good, not too far from the town centre and we took a day trip out to Dubbo zoo. Thank you for having us Claire!

"Tranquil escape"

Historical and working farm, peaceful and quiet yet still close to Gulgong, Mudgee and Goola for dining out and daily exploring. Claire and Peter are wonderful hosts and encouraged us to venture out around the property, and to the river. The cottage is very well set up, clean comfortable and all you could ask for a long weekend away from the hustle & bustle.

Great stay for large group of friends

My friends and I had a great time staying at Claire's place. It was perfect for a big group (there were 10 of us). The accomodation is about a 20 min drive from the majority of the wineries, which didn't bother us as we decided to drive there in the morning, hire some ebikes to cycle around the wineries in the day and then got a cab back at the end, which worked great! The place had everything we needed and we enjoyed exploring the farmland and watching the sunset from the hill. If you don't need to stay in the centre of Mudgee I'd definitely recommend this place!

A cosy house in a peaceful location

The house is a bit out of town on a farm which was very peaceful. The house had 4 bedrooms with queen beds and one bedroom with 2 single beds so great for a group of friends or a family. There is a bathroom and an en-suite. It is an older house in good condition, clean and comfortable. Wi-Fi works well, and only Telstra phone reception. The back deck is a lovely spot overlooking the fields. Claire is easy to contact and gives good instructions. There was lovely breakfast produce Provided of bread and milk, eggs, tomato, mushrooms, and bacon. We enjoyed the stay, thanks for having us!
