Independent in Warraderry from AU$147

"One of the best motels we have stayed in."

"We spent eight unforgettable nights here—a peaceful retreat from the bustle of life in Penrith, Sydney. It was just the four of us: my wife Marianni, our dog Keio, and my cousin Martine. From the moment we arrived, the house greeted us with warmth—both from the fireplace already lit, and the tidy, well-cared-for spaces that immediately felt like home.Each morning began with a quiet walk at sunrise, just us and the wide open sky, with Keio joyfully leading the way. In the evenings, we lit the fire pit and gathered around to roast marshmallows and enjoy simple barbecued meals, camping style. A glass of wine by the indoor fire, watching a film as the wind whispered outside, made winter here something magical.The sunrises and sunsets are truly breathtaking—nature’s theatre right at your doorstep. This place is more than just a house; it’s a little pocket of stillness and beauty, and we are deeply grateful for the time we spent here.We’ll definitely return."

"A taste of country life amongst the sheep grazing in the neighbouring paddocks under an ever changing sky day and starry night. "

"Chaffcutters cottage is a delightful place to stay.The cottage is comfortably furnished and spotless.The surrounding garden is enjoyable and the views over the countryside are beautiful."
