Cosy, homely, so clean & comfortable. Helen had even lit the fire for us before we arrived which was so warm & welcoming. Beautiful views over the valley. A very short, easy drive to Mayfield Hardens. Had a lovely time.
Thanks John .

Thank you Reshma , you are welcome any time, so glad you enjoyed your stay 🏡 such a nice time to visit Oberon and the central west with the spring in all its glory 🌼
Helen was very welcoming, hospitable, approachable and available. Even generously lending us her umbrellas when the weather turned. THE HUT provided a very comfortable, quiet and convenient stay, offering everything we needed. Little touches such as sweet treats, and fresh flowers were really pleasing and appreciated. We enjoyed its great location with beautiful views.

Thank you Tania .
So glad The Hut was a comfortable stay for the activities you attended . Pleased the weather held off enough. You are welcome again anytime 🏠😍
The Hut property was a cozy gem with a stunning view just a couple of metres from the house - perfect spot for aperitifs and breakfast! Helen warmly welcomed us, showing off her adorable Sunflower cottage where we snapped some awesome pics. The welcome treats were top-notch: fresh fruit, veggies, eggs from the chooks, and sweet biscuits for snacks . The bedrooms were comfy, and the bathroom's water pressure was on point - showers were a highlight! Big thanks, Helen, for an epic one-night stay - we'll be back for sure!
