Perfection
Our group of 12 thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Aroonalea. The property was more beautiful in person and suited our annual girls trip perfectly. The rooms and beds were very comfortable, the location is the perfect distance from town and the kitchen had everything you need to cook for 12 or more people. Annie was wonderful to deal with also, very friendly. I highly recommend this property.

Milestone in Mudgee
Our family was visiting Mudgee for a birthday milestone and we absolutely loved Aroonalea! The location, property features, homestead and facilities were second to none. Annie was such a responsive host and her attention to detail meant that nothing was overlooked to make our stay so enjoyable. The outlook was beautiful and the home design, including four bathrooms, easily accommodated our large family. We were also impressed by the duplicate appliances, large dining areas and numerous games which made entertaining our large group so much easier. We highly recommend Annie and her property to those that want to experience a truly memorable getaway. Hopefully, we'll be back there again soon!

The perfect environment
Annie's home was the perfect environment to facilitate our work retreat. Everything about it exceeded expectations and the attention to detail was second to none. Not only did we receive a great experience over the weekend, but the communication with Annie and her assistance in planning our retreat was incredible. She really went out of our way to connect us with locals in facilitating our retreat, and it would have not been the success that it was without ber prompt and genuine help. Thank you Annie, we'll be back!

Perfect accommodation for a large group of family or friends. The house is extremely well equipped with anything you could possibly need and is situated on a beautiful property 10 mins from Mudgee with stunning views. We really enjoyed sitting around the fire pit toasting marshmallows. Annie the host was fantastic, extremely helpful, very welcoming and nothing was a problem. We loved it so much we are already chatting about our next stay ❤️

Magical Stay
We cannot express how much we loved our weekend at AroonaLea. From the moment Annie got in touch she went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. The house is incredible and every little detail thought of. So much effort has gone in to create a beautiful and welcoming home. Loads of space to find a quiet spot or enough room to all be together. We laughed, we crafted, we ate and we didn't want to leave! We'll be back in the summer to enjoy the pool and the river. Thank you Annie!

Wonderful property
We shared this property between 3 families and it was perfect. Close enough to Mudgee but far enough away to feel like a real country holiday. We spent most afternoons down by the river at the bottom of the property watching the kids try to catch a fish , very relaxing. The house itself has everything needed and couldn’t recommend it highly enough for a large family or group of friends. Thanks to our host Annie for a great Easter weekend

Mudgee girls weekend
We were in town for my 40th birthday celebrations and Annie’s place was the perfect base for our group of 16! The grounds are stunning.. we made good use of the pool and explored down by the river (didn’t see the elusive platypus though!). The house was very well equipped, every detail had been thought of, and all of the rooms were beautiful. The living spaces (kitchen, dining and lounge) easily accommodated all of us, we were able to enjoy sit down meals together. Annie was a pleasure to deal with, very helpful with local recommendations and even left me a little birthday gift from a local supplier. It was unexpected but very thoughtful. Thank you! We’ll be back for sure… there were calls to make it any annual event!

If you are still pondering on booking Annie’s property, stop and book now! This place exceeded our expectations. Absolutely beautiful. The photos do not do the place justice. We stayed with our extended family and the place was perfect with so many rooms and lots of space for activities. Great views and a pool to keep the kids occupied and happy. The property is also well stocked, whatever you need you will find it there. Close to main shops, eateries and lots of wineries to choose from. Annie was a great host and easy to communicate with. Thank you for such a great stay. Cannot recommend it enough!!

Tremendous property
We were 3 families each with 2 daughters who wanted a nice spacious home for a holiday and we certainly found it here. A very well appointed house ( loved the toast tongs and the picnic boxes). Great place - highly recommend it. And Mudgee is a big surprise- heaps of wineries and nice shops and antique stores.

A Rural Delight
So peaceful and quiet! The house feel like a home; yet big enough for 14 of us to either gather as one, or to find our own quiet space. The shaded meadow at the rear of the property is ideal for a country picnic and a dip in the river. Annie, our host, was truly interested in ensuring that we enjoyed our stay. And even after we left, she tracked down and ensured the safe return of my grand-daughter's lost teddy!! Thanks Annie.

AMAZING HOLIDAY GETAWAY - STUNNING LOCATION
Myself & my friends stayed at this beautiful property over the Christmas period & I honestly do not think the pictures on Stayz do it any justice! We like to go away as often as we can as a group of almost 20 usually & this home had more than enough room for everyone. It is hands down the most stunning place we have stayed, from the spacious bedrooms to the spectacular back garden view of the mountains. Our host Annie was so accommodating, helping with early check in, taking the extra step for a Christmas welcome when we arrived & to also be kind enough to leave a Christmas gift which was appreciated. Thank you Annie & we look forward to coming back to stay in the future!
