Back Forest cottage rentals

The Byres was a perfect spot for us to stay near Berry. We loved the house, the hot tub and the kitchen. Just a lovely spot to watch the sun go down.

Beautiful location and very comfortable

My cousin and I enjoyed our stay so much! Beautiful location and perfectly appointed with everything we could need. Looking forward to heading back in winter with the open fire inside and fire pit outside.

Liz is the perfect host, Informative, welcoming and responsive. My partner and i spent the night and had a brilliant stay in Berry. The cabin was warm and homely. The property and surroundings are quiet, serene and private. It’s the perfect stay for any couple. We’d definitely stay again.

The property is a well maintained romantic getaway. It is in natural surroundings, in what we describe as a slice of paradise. Tranquility within nature. Definitely recommend to any couple!

Garden Hill Retreat is truly the hidden gem with magnificent and magical gardens and a wonderful well-appointed sandstone cottage with a wood-burning stove. The cottage is serene and sublime. It overlooks the beautiful veggie garden, rose garden, Mediterranean garden and lotus pond. There are wonderful features: croquet lawn, tennis courts and an indoor swimming pool to enjoy. There are amazing birds twittering in the camellia hedges and rose bushes. You can see Mama Duck waddling down the lotus pond with her ducklings watched over by Papa Drake. The whole 20-acre property is embraced by stunning magnolias, jacarandas, maples, eucalyptuses, Norfolk pines, Pin oaks, Bunya pines and even the oldest species: gingko trees! It is indeed a privilege that Nicholas and Rosalind the gracious and hospitable hosts are immensely generous and kind to make my stay such a memorable experience! I would highly recommend that you stay at this magnificent property at the foot of beautiful Cambewarra Mountain, close to Jervis Bay, Berry, Bowral and Kangaroo Valley.

This is our second stay on the farm with Ken and we will be booking again. We love everything about this holiday home. It’s perfect for two kids and two adults. Our kids loved feeding the horses and the cows and toasting marshmallows by the fire. We love the town and that you can do a lot or very little. Can’t recommend highly enough.

This idyllic place is such a great place to stay with your dog. Hosts Maree and George are so generous in sharing their property with you, including their swimming pool. The BNB is very private, separated by a large hedge from their house. I have never stayed in such a wonderful place.
