Relaxing break
We really enjoyed our stay. The property is lovely, and the house has a very comfortable, welcoming feel to it with a quirky, eclectic vibe. The house was clean and comfortable, but the kitchen and bathroom were a bit shabby. The beds were very comfortable. The owners were very welcoming, and it was fun to meet the animals. Overall, a very relaxing and enjoyable break.

Stunning property to stay at.
There were six of us and we loved staying at Lawson Farm Cottage. The property is spectacular, the beds were comfy, the water pressure was great and we had everything we needed. We found the chickens entertaining, as was Dave the beer brewer who runs a small brewery from Lawson Farm. We would definitely stay here again. The cottage is within minutes (driving) of Mudgee township, fromagerie, wineries, breweries and coffee places. We had a great time, thank you Cate! She is so lovely to deal with, we had a couple of changes along the way and she was great.

Lovely comfy cottage close to town and vineyards
The cottage is very comfortable with all the amenities you'd expect. It's a peaceful location surrounded by farmland but close to town and vineyards. We appreciated the hosts' thoughtful touches like a big basket of blankets for winter nights and a dozen eggs in the fridge.

Family holiday to Mudgee
The cottage was clean and lovely, surprisingly warm given the winter time visit. The beds and pillows were very comfortable, and the cottage is only a few minutes drive from both the town and local wineries. I would recommend!

The property was perfect for our group, the children had a lot of space to roam around and the area is well appointed for wineries. The beds were all very cosy and comfortable and we really enjoyed the out door fire pit and the peace and serenity of the views in the morning. Overall a very special place and we will definitely be back again!

Fabulous Weekend With the Girls
Fabulous comfy beds - though wrought iron bed may need some oil as very squeaky even to sit on - beautiful warm cottage with country vibe. Chickens, cows, horses etc. close to central Mudgee. Elephant Mountain Wine tasting onsite. Indoor fire, so cosy and outdoor fire pit - the skys were amazing. Any questions or issues our host was there for us to rectify and we had a fabulous long weekend. A great place to stay would stay there again.

Brilliant base to explore Mudgee
Close enough to the action but just far enough to feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere. Our party of 4 adults and 4 kids had a ball, great facilities and outdoor space, fireplace and fire pit was a hit. Was able to easily explore the range of restaurants, wineries and artisan produce of the area. Had a fabulous long weekend. Thanks to hosts Cate and Ian who made sure we had everything we needed.

Family Christmas holiday
Our family really enjoyed our holiday over Christmas at the farm. We had a baby and a toddler with us and found the closeness to Mudgee very convenient. The local swimming pool was a big hit. The farm was comfortable and the horses and chickens a bonus entertainment. Early mornings and evenings were beautiful to enjoy the rural surrounds outside.

Wonderful location and property, excellent host.
Very excited about our stay, great communication with host. Self Check In was easy. Cottage was wonderful and has everything we needed in tge kitchen, games, big dining table and couch space, lots of wood for the indoor fire which kept the whole house toastie. Heaters in every bedroom. Beds were very comfortable with lots of extra blankets if needed (we stayed in winter). We patted the horses in the next paddock, we were lucky enough to be allowed to visit the hens and collect their eggs. Magical views over the paddocks to the mountains. Such a wonderful place that fits 2 familys of 4 comfortably. We will be back.
