We had such a relaxing weekend and felt at home the moment we arrived. The setting is gorgeous, with a lovely little river to stroll along, and we really enjoyed gathering around the campfire in the evenings. The cabin itself is cozy and very comfortable, the beds are super comfy, and we treasured the family time by the fire. We’d happily come back!Thanks for having us.

Beautiful Cottage!

This place is a tranquil haven and one of the loveliest places we have ever stayed! Fiona and Mike were incredible hosts and gave us lots of lovely recommendations for activities in the area. The cottage is beautiful and has everything you could possibly need to switch off, relax and enjoy yourself in a natural paradise with all the modern facilities. Thank you so much and we will definitely be back!

Perfect getaway

This was our second stay at Hidden Valley & we enjoyed the stay just as much as the first time. It’s the perfect getaway from the city. No phones, a good book, radio & some dvds. Also a great pet friendly spot. Fiona our host was lovely & came by to welcome us. Highly recommend a weekend getaway here or even a bit longer.

A perfect city escape

We had a beautiful weekend in the Cabbage Tree Cottage. Lots of time was spent on the front porch, reading and birdwatching and just enjoying the beautiful green surroundings. The open fire and lounges were cosy and perfect for the Winter nights. The beds are also super comfy. We also enjoyed the walk along the creek, which is beautiful. Fiona is an excellent host. Great communication and very helpful. We'll be back for sure!

Relaxing Weekend Away

Myself and two mates arrived Friday afternoon and had a very relaxing evening by the fire. The following day we went for a short hike down toward the Grose Vale River from the nearest lookout. The remainder of the day was for relaxing in the sun by the cabin, exploring the small river running through the property and having a BBQ dinner beside the fire. The host was accommodating prior to arrival and we had our privacy whilst staying there. I will go back.

Quietude. Solace. Peace.

It was exactly what I needed. Clean, comfortable in a deep gorge, with a eucalypt forest up one side and a rainforest up the other. Went bush bashing down that creek for a few hours the first day and spent the rest of my time with my feet up in the sunshine, or next to that huge fireplace with a pile of books. Loved it! I’ll be back next year. Thanks guys!

Perfect getaway

I loved every bit of our stay at Cabbage Tree Cottage. If you are after some time away to rest, switch off, digital detox and spend time with nature this is the place. The Cottage was cosy and delightful with everything you need, the bed was so comfortable, the indoor fire of a night was a treat while playing cards and board games and the outdoor fire pit was nice to watch the stars. The sound of the birds, the visiting ducks, the stream running alongside the cottage, the sound of the wind in the trees was very relaxing. Cabbage Tree Cottage was very secluded. Fiona is a terrific host. We didn't need to leave the Cottage because we just enjoyed being in such a beautiful place. Highly recommend a visit to Cabbage Treet Cottage and we will definitely be back!

Lovely, quiet location, surrounded by bush.

We loved this property for its old-fashioned charm, quiet surroundings and serene outlook. We would like to see an update to some of the furnishings though. Whilst the cottage is charming, some of the furnishings are damaged or worn out. For example, the jet bath is very old and cracked all through; a modern shower and/or bath is essential. Apart from needing a freshen up, the cottage is a wonderful place to get away from the city. It is very quiet, comfortable and serene; the beds are conducive to a good nights' sleep, and there is plenty of room for pets to run. A breakfast hamper would be a nice touch.

Just what the doctor ordered!

My partner and I had a such amazing and peaceful experience. It was just so nice to get back to basics, have some technology downtime and enjoy the surroundings. The property had all we needed. We did a couple of lovely hikes over the weekend and enjoyed an afternoon at Hillbilly Cider. Highly recommend this property if you’re looking to get out of the city!!

Hidden Valley Retreat Cottages as magical in 2019 as back in 2001!

My wife and I spent a delightful and relaxing 5 nights at Cabbage Tree Cottage with our 16 1/2 year old son and our black lab. The latter two both loved the open space around the cottage and the surrounding bush, and my wife and I were delighted to find Hidden Valley Retreat Cottages was as magical today as it was when we last stayed there in 2001, the year before our son was born, and with our dear old black lab. Thank you so much, Fiona and Kevin, for your wonderful cottages.
