If a secluded romantic getaway awaits, you’ll find this luxurious retreat has a special charm about it. Imagine the feels of stepping into a luxurious private villa in Bali or Thailand but situated in Mudgee, overlooking the valley below, with the natural backdrop of the Avisford State forest at your doorstep. Just perfect for an early morning hike or afternoon stroll with a bottle of wine in hand, or perhaps snuggle up with your very own fire pit & private BBQ facilities whilst you sit back, relax & watch the sun setting over town. Our retreat has a modern contemporary Balinese/Thai feel. It is large but very calming, way too nice not to share with friends and family & one of the reasons we are hosting guests. Your Villa is fully self contained at the rear of our home, with it's very own entrance, completely separate from our living areas.

We are Mudgee locals. I, Sharon work in the wine industry as a cellar door manager and my husband Peter is a builder and also works in mining. I have lived here most of my life and Peter is born and bred in Mudgee and both of us have great local knowledge and our home has a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. If we aren't working on the weekends we are out getting amongst the locals and visitors experiencing what Mudgee has to offer so we can help guide you with great places to eat, drink, relax, maybe take a hike or even which wine tours are the best to take.
