About this property

Allawah: Old Methodist Church

Allawah, built in 1911, is the old Methodist Church in the small village of Wallendbeen. Reinvented as a place for you and a close friend to relax, Allawah has everything you need for a weekend or a week. Just add the champagne!

Some simple breakfast items are provided but bring with you a hamper to take advantage of the fully equipped kitchen. Alternatively, it is a 15 min drive to nearby towns of Cootamundra, Harden and Young all have supermarkets, restaurants, cafes and pub meals.

If you feel like getting out and about, Allawah is a short drive to the Hilltops wine region, or if you are a cricket tragic, visit Cootamundra, Bradman's birthplace. In summer you can indulge in the cherries and peaches at Young. Travel a little further afield and find the Air Museum at Temora, or Junee with its Roundhouse and Railway Museum, to be followed by a visit to the Licorice Factory.

Detour on the way back to discover the architectural and historical surprises of surrounding villages like Galong, Wombat or Stockinbingal. Of course, if you can't drum up the energy for any of this, you may manage the short walk to the pub to meet the locals. Nearby to Harden, Cootamundra, Young, and Temora

A unique place to stay
A very different place to stay. Was well presented and had everything we needed, just a little cold at this time of year, a big open space to heat and no heating on when we arrived early evening so took a little while to warm up.

Heavenly stay at Allawah!
We stayed in the beautiful Allawah property over Christmas as we have a Great Dane and my husbands family live in Young where Christmas was for us this year. Thankfully Leanne allowed us to have Eva at the property… my first impression on walking in was that it was jaw droppingly breathtaking! The pictures do not do this place justice… the property was immaculate yet inviting… we were so happy!!!

Nicely renovated old church building
While we enjoyed our stay in this nicely renovated old church building, we found the large space sparsely furnished and not terribly homely. The place was well equipped (except for the lack fo a hair dryer) and interesting.

Heavenly
If you want to escape the rat race Allawah church is fantastic, bring some supplies, a good book and relax in this beautiful converted church. Harden and Young are just arround the corner for a quick stock up.Our dogs loved the back yard.

Stay at Allawah
It was a most enjoyable experience for my husband and myself and our dog. It was a home away from home. Lovely modern kitchen, and bathroom. Heated towel rack - such "luxury". Comfortable bed.

An amazing stay
Allawah is an amazing place to stay. We stayed 3 nights and even though the church is so spacious, the air conditioning warmed the space beautifully for some cold nights. Well appointed it is definately a place to stay!

Great Location
Such a quiet and relaxing location. The building itself is an amazing space. The location is close to Young and Cootamundra. We went during the cherry season and it was so easy to find an orchard.

We had only one night in this unique place as we were transiting from NSW to Victoria with our dog and 2 cats ! Leanne was very helpful in the booking stage and provided lots of information about the premises so we were confident it would suit us and our animals . Everything in the church was beautifully presented and finished to a high standard . We would stay again ! Thanks Leanne
