Peaceful location - very happy return guests.

Return guest and for good reason. The property is well appointed and in a lovely location only 10 minutes drive outside the Bathurst CBD. We love sitting on the deck watching the kangaroos, cows, and birdlife. The property is well insulated and has a very effective split system reverse cycle system for heating so it's easy to stay warm as the temperature drops over night in Autumn. The location is particularly pretty in Autumn as well with the changing colours of the leaves.

It took me a while to write this review, but I simply couldn’t forget this place—and it would’ve been rude not to share how wonderful our stay was. We had an absolutely lovely experience. The host was very welcoming and even came by to say hello after we settled in, which made us feel right at home. The property offers stunning 360° views and complete privacy—perfect for a peaceful getaway. The living and sleeping arrangements were excellent, with a comfortable separate bedroom that made the stay even more relaxing. One of the highlights was the early mornings—if you wake up before sunrise, you’ll be treated to the sight of animals coming close to the property. There are also two very friendly horses nearby. With the owner’s permission, you can gently pat them—they’re incredibly calm and even come right up to the fence, lowering their heads for little ones to interact. Just be mindful that the fence is electric. Overall, one of the best places we’ve stayed. Highly recommend!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We were very satisfied with our stay. The accommodation was clean, tidy, and well maintained, providing a comfortable and pleasant environment throughout our visit. The location also offers a lovely view of the city and a peaceful natural setting, with kangaroos nearby, which added to the overall experience. On the day of check-in, Cassie (the owner) contacted us to ensure everything was going well with our arrival, which was very much appreciated. In addition to the quality of the accommodation, Cassie was extremely helpful and flexible. She was very accommodating with our request for a late check-out and happy to work around our plans, which made the stay much easier for us and significantly reduced any stress. Overall, we had a great experience and would happily recommend this accommodation to others.

Although a little out of town, 15 minutes, while staying there there was a feeling of freedom with animals, including kangaroos and dear, close by.

Great scenery to wake up to looking over the property a view into Bathurst. Easy parking, easy to find, remote feeling yet less than 15mins from town. The stay was very homely, wifi, couch, open kitchen & living. Highly recommend.

Relaxing, private, comfortable, great place to get away and reset!

We loved everything about the property, not far from Bathurst, beautiful view, the wildlife was amazing, we saw cockatoo’s, cows, mobs of Kangaroo’s and were even lucky enough to watch a herd of deer bounding through the property, right in front of the cottage, and what a beautifully decorated cottage, very comfortable and exceptionally clean. The host was great, very accommodating easy to contact and kept our stay very private! A very relaxing place to get away from the hassle and bustle of the city!! We will definitely be returning.

Hidden gem.

The view, the birds, the animals and the rainbow. Also, the interior was lovely, really well designed and everything functioned perfectly. Very comfortable. Excellent heating too, which mattered because it was very cold while we were there!!

Danara cottage offers a peaceful countryside retreat with breathtaking views. Cassie was a welcoming and helpful host, readily available to answer questions. Our kids enjoyed interacting with the friendly farm animals, including horses and a lovely dog, as well as seeing cows and kangaroos near the cottage. The well-maintained cottage had everything we needed, and we appreciate Cassie for making our stay memorable.

Perfect overnighter for our 2 day visit to the Bathurst Heritage Trades Trail.

Lovely little place not too far out of Bathurst but far enough to be peaceful and quiet with birdlife and kangaroos all around. Very comfortable and nicely decorated. Gorgeous views all around, especially from the main deck.

Definitely recommend this piece of 'paradise'. Modern, clean, spacious and relaxing. Jill.

The Danara Cottage was amazing. It was modern, large, spotless and had everything we could possible need. Cassie greeted us on arrival and went through where everything was and how it worked. There was an amazing view from the attached deck where we had breakfast and our evening cuppa, a car port and washing facilities. Definitely recommend this piece of 'paradise' . Jill.
