The Cottage
This is a one bedroom apartment. Internally it retains elements of the original features of the original construction including lining boards and the wood fired stove built into he fireplace that would have been the heart of the dwelling. This has been complimented with structural changes like external wall insulation, soundproofing and a modern bathroom and kitchen.
The bathroom is well appointed with a vanity, large mirror, large walk in glass shower ad a timer based towel warmer. The bedroom has french doors that open onto a shaded private balcony, ideal for breakfast in summer. The sliding glass door entry has a canopy to help with weather and looks east across a paddock that is normally filled with grazing kangaroos each morning and evening.
- Minutes from the heart of Armidale, peacefully set in acres of Australian pasture & native bush, is arenovated old stockman's cottage. The building was originally two apartments and we have restored and renovated both with modern services for casual to long term stays.We have retained the charming and cozy and essence of the original building, with superior facilities that will meet your expectationsof comfort and convenience.
This was merino country where the first economic miracle of the fledgling new continental country of Australia rose. You get to relive the glory days of that first commodity boom including access to the Australia bush which is available to walk through complete with kangaroos, wallabies and other indigenous fauna. Afternoon sunsets, morning frosts and the smokey breath of the mob breakfasting on the back paddock are the genuine and unique experience.
