Cottage

The Settlers Hut, situated in its own private garden at the rear of Jellore Cottage, offers a cosy and intimate getaway for 2. Overlooking the Wingecarribee River, platypus can be seen playing at dawn and dusk.

The rough hewn slab walls and carefully selected rustic colonial bush décor enhance the amazing ambience that The Settlers Hut exudes. Consisting of 3 rooms in total, the main room is a traditional living space complete with a Victorian Iron Tester bed and accompanying luxurious linen. This room also features a large open fireplace with easy chairs. A range of books and a compact disc player is also provided for your entertainment, as well as gas heating for year round comfort.

At the rear of the hut a period kitchen has been recreated, lined with hand hewn slab walls, and fitted with cupboards and benches of recycled timber. You may choose to prepare breakfast, or a romantic evening meal on the classic early Kooka gas stove. There is also an abundance of local cafes and restaurants serving breakfast, lunch and dinner for those who want to relax entirely.

The 3rd room, the bathroom, is complete with an old fashioned claw foot bath and shower. Located in the front garden is a former stable, now a traditional rustic dining room with outside BBQ facilities. At the rear of The Settlers Hut another hut is located, which was once an old dairy - this is now a laundry providing a washing machine and dryer for longer stays.
