Independent in Triamble from AU$119

"A fabulous farmhouse on an amazing property. Truly and authentically the real Australian outback. It felt like going back in time, and wildlife watching was awe inspiring. Kangaroos surrounded us as far as the eye could see. Gentle cows and sheep roamed the paddocks, We spent most of our time on the deck, soaking it all in, book in hand, quietly chatting. Evenings were spent around one of 3 dining tables, candles lit, board games out. The nights were cool, the days gradually warmed up, followed by a spectacular sunset and magnificent night skies. Hill End itself is fascinating and historic, the coffee at the grocer was great, the new micro pub absolutely fabulous. Mudgee, an hour away, was great for a day trip to pick up some local wine and cheese. All in all, it was a privilege to ring in the New Year in a place like this. Thanks Anna and Bob - we hope to be back again!"

"Nice casual place, nice room, good meals and good base to look around Hill End and Sofala. John the owner was a real character."

"Stayed for two nights: walked up the hill to the paddocks at the top of the world, sat around the fire pit and had great chat with the lady owner who had set up the property to keep all ages happy. It's a farm-stay. The property isn't the lap luxury, but it's a good honest place where, in the small hours of the night, you can see more stars than you've ever imaged! Also loved the x 2 dogs. "

"If you would like an off the grid break this property s a great stay. Waking up to look out the window to ducks Geese pigs goats Peacocks just some of your neighbors. I took a little adjustment to get used to the composting toilet in the Tiny house but was all part of the experience "

"My 6 year old daughter and I had an incredible night away at this gorgeous property. Fernando and Susanna were perfect hosts. Hoping to come back soon and provide some acupuncture and taichi in collaboration with these fantastic people nestled in nature."

"Beautiful place! "

"We had a wonderful stay at Meroo — a gorgeous country home surrounded by rolling hills, offering the perfect escape from the city. The location is truly special, with stunning sunrises and sunsets. We loved exploring the grounds, especially the views from the top of the hill. One of the highlights of our stay was witnessing baby lambs being born each day — such a rare experience!The home itself is spacious and full of charm, with two beautiful fireplaces that made the living areas feel extra cozy. As expected for a countryside stay, the bedrooms did get a little chilly at night, so it’s worth packing warmer clothes and a small heater for extra comfort.Overall, it was a memorable and serene getaway — perfect for those looking to slow down and enjoy the simple beauty of nature."

"Super quiet and amazing views. "

"Rustic but adequate for overnight stop. Enjoyed our fire outside and heater inside. Could have done with a sponge for washing up. Difficult to get water to stay in sink."
