Short family vacation

Our extended family stayed at this property and another around the corner. We loved the house. It had plenty of bedrooms, a big table for a family meal and wonderful views of the mountains. We had morning tea at the local cafe every day. Can highly recommend a swim up at talbingo dam.

A cozy holiday home with a beautiful view of the mountains & river nearby.

This home is located in a very quite and peaceful neighborhood. I could not stop admiring the shingles on the roof & steel framed beds which retains the old world charm of this property. The heating was fine and one feels absolutely welcome when entering this home. Despite the temperature dropping towards 4 centigrade this home is well insulated and even when the heater is not on, one feels comfortable as long as you are dressed in warm clothes. There is a beautiful view with some mountains which is a short walk away. The river at the foot of these mountains is absolutely beautiful. The location of this property is amazing. The drive to the snowy mountains is not far and is approximately 1.5 hours. I have been to many locations but want to go to this home again one day as the beauty of the home and its surroundings was captivating. Hopefully you will also see the wallabies resting across the road in the kids play area and a peacock in the adjoining property.

The house was comfortable, cosy, clean and tidy and highly recommend anyone to stay there. I had my father in a wheelchair which has plenty of room in the living areas and bedroom. The ramp up the side of the house was perfect. The communication with the host was excellent and responsive straight away.Thank you Robert for sharing your house.

Talbingo stay

Lovely 3 night stay. House was very comfortable and clean.Host was very accomodating with details and our change of dates.The main lounge was not very comfortable / quiet saggy.A good suggestion would be to advise people that there is no phone service in the area unless you are on the telstra network. The local phone box at the shop will give you free wifi if required.

Spacious retreat in a fabulous location with great local attractions.

We had a fantastic stay at this charming old property! The space was perfect for our family of five, with four good sized bedrooms that easily accommodated three teens, my partner and myself. The dining area was roomy, allowing us all to sit comfortably together and enjoy meals.The property itself was lovely and quiet, providing the ideal retreat after a day of exploring. Everywhere we went, we were met with friendly locals, which added to the welcoming vibe of the area. Our host was fantastic – communication was excellent, and Robert ensured we had everything we needed during our stay.One of the highlights was the Talbingo boat ramp’s swimming area, which was a great spot to relax and enjoy the surrounding scenery. The proximity to the local club made it easy for us to enjoy a nice meal out, and the weather was perfect throughout our trip.We also had a great time visiting the nearby Yarrangobilly Caves and exploring Kosciuszko National Park – they are absolutely worth the visit! All in all, this was a wonderful, relaxing getaway in a picturesque location. Highly recommend!
