Wilton house rentals

We needed somewhere to stay for our son's wedding in the Southern Highlands and Lavinia's little cottage was perfect.

Has everything you need for an enjoyable weekend away with friends

So close to Sydney yet a million miles from civilisation. Just sublime. The place was beautiful. The property was perfect for the kids to hike and explore. And the Shetland ponies and alpacas only sweetened the deal. We hate to leave but know that Little Forest will never leave us.

We knew this place was going to be great from the photos and the website but when you arrive it does not do it justice. I celebrated my 50th with family and friends and we had non stop fun for four days and Mandy is the best host and super helpful.

After seven years of annual family getaways, Kalinya Gardens is right up there at the top of the list. One of the things we look for is for all of us to be accommodated under one roof rather than needing to spread out across multiple cottages. The Homestead which holds a maximum of 18 was perfect for our group. The property caters for people of all ages. The Homestead is beautifully appointed: decor and furnishings are elegant and tasteful; the beds are super comfortable, and so are the pillows. There are several lovely bathrooms, and some comfy sitting areas, and more TV's than I could count. I don't actually think we turned one on until late on the final evening. We were too busy enjoying each other's company. Mandy, the owner has thought of everything. The grounds, the facilities, gardens, decks, outdoor tables and entertaining areas were just perfect. This year, my husband was celebrating his 80th Birthday. Mandy put us in touch with caterers and providores - all of whom were exceptional. On the day of the celebration, Mandy was there help us with extra tables and chairs so we could set up in the winter sun on the sheltered verandah which runs all the way around the house. What more can I say - "just gorgeous, in every possible way."

This was the perfect place to bookend out south coast road trip. Close to all things southern highlands. Beautifully quiet at night, clean and spacious. Many thanks to our thoughtful hosts.

Beautiful and serein area, the house was clean and tidy just needed to improve the internet reception.

Enjoyed our stay, comfortable and homely, well stocked. Aircon and tv in each bedroom made for a relaxing holiday. We all slept soundly. Very clean.
