About this property

FALLING WATERS COLO VALE

Welcome to Falling Waters Colo Vale. Colo Vale (colloquially known as the Vale) is situated North of the Historic towns of Berrima, Bowral and Mittagong, 5kms from the Hume Hwy and 125km from Sydney CBD.

The beautiful Southern Highlands is one of the most unique places in NSW. The Highlands are renowned for its history, stunning scenery, wines and pies, beautiful walks and waterfalls.

If you are looking for a romantic weekend, quick getaway, quiet escape in a stunning location, Falling Waters Colo Vale has everything you need. A fully self contained log cabin with open fire, luxury king size bed, kitchen for all your needs.

Richard and Deb are your hosts along with Brent and Mykala and our 4 fur Goldie’s. They are often wandering around the property, extremely friendly and rule the roost, there are 14 chickens 8 sheep, 2 Alpacas and we also have resident Wombats which come out late at night if your lucky you might see them! There is so much abundant bird life we just take a guess on what we can hear and see, Kangaroos also pop up for a visit every now and then.

There are NOT a lot of shops near the property, Hill Top which is 5kms up the road which is closest has a Chinese Restaurant and is open most days, the Bakery which also makes chicken, pies, pastries etc, a Newsagent, Post Office and Bottle shop, there is also a take away shop which has really nice Pizzas, there are brochures for you to browse in the manifest in the kitchen. There are plenty of restaurants and supermarkets in Mittagong and Bowral.

As an added bonus we are located 15 minutes away from the Southern Highlands wineries and all that the Southern Highlands has to offer.

Falling Waters Colo Vale is situated on 35 acres, you are free to walk around the property but we ask that if you have a pet with you please keep your pet on a leash due to the fact that the property has a lot of bush and wildlife.

The luxury log cabin is a home away from home and is positioned for privacy from the main house an offers comfort and parking availability. Unfortunately there is no WIFI in the cottage.

Cabin contains

1 x King size bed
1 x double bunk bed
1x single bunk bed
Portable cot
Foxtel
TV
Linen included
Pets are allowed inside but not on the furniture.

Family Catch-up
Clean, comfortable, quiet and affordable place for our inter-generational meet up, suitable for all ages with a fenced yard for our dog. Kids loved seeing the chickens (fresh eggs), sheep and alpacas. About 20 mins drive from Bowral so still accessible to local attractions.

We had a beautiful stay, it was just short of perfect. It would have been nice to include breakfast. Fresh eggs on hand due to all the chickens on the property. Dust on window sills was disappointing. But don't get me wrong our stay was lovely. Walked around to see the sheep, chickens and alpacas. Lovely outdoor areas available. It was cozy, sherpa blankets supplied on the recliners, i could have easily have slept on it the night.

Perfect spot to relax!
Lovely property in a great location - close to the Southern Highlands shops/pubs/wineries if you'd like to go into town, far enough away for complete solitude if you prefer. We loved relaxing and walking around the property visiting the animals. The house is very clean and has everything you need. Check in process was easy and communication was great. Highly recommend for a relaxing weekend away!

Perfect
This property was a blessing for us and our two dogs (one a very anxious and reactive pooch). As we were relocating interstate, Falling Waters offered some much needed respite after long week of packing and a long day of travel. Just perfect!

Perfect antidote to a stressful day of travelling
Falling Waters was perfect for our overnight stop over especially after battling the Sydney traffic – it was the perfect antidote. With a cheese board and G&T in hand, we soaked up the peace and calm of the bushy environment, mesmerised by the stunning bird activity... and just like that, the stress of the day fell away. The space and comfort suited our needs perfectly and the gorgeous bathroom a lovley treat. 10/10 for me, my partner, my elderly mother and her small pooch.

Lovely hidden home
We stayed for a wedding in the area. Our 2.5year old daughter absolutely loved the chickens, dogs and sheep in the back yard. A very nice yard available for use and well back from the road. Hosts were lovely, and provided plenty of firewood for the indoor fire to keep away the chill. We would definitely choose to stay again.

Relaxing
Our stay was great. Relaxing and peaceful. A lovely cosy feeling in this log cabin especially having the fireplace on the cooler nights. The bed was comfy. Had the best relaxing bath in the huge bath tube. A lovely new and clean bathroom. Our little dog had plenty of space in a secure fenced in area off the front verandah. I would highly recommend this place for time away to relax and recharge. We will go back again. Deb the host was very friendly and helpful.

Wonderful cottage with a tranquil , cosy feel
Deb was a helpful host who ensured we had everything we needed. We travelled with two Great Danes who had a secured yard to explore and flooring was suitable for their beds to be laid in front of a warm pot belly heater. Provisions in the kitchen were useful. Thank you .

Lovely spot
Thank you for a lovely stay, the space was great. We had everything we needed for a quick stopover on our trip. Very accomodating for our late arrival and our dogs had a great spot to run around after a long car journey. The log fire and comfortable chairs were just what we needed. The beds were also very clean and comfortable and the shower was perfect. Thanks Deb

Great dog friendly accomodation. Rustic cottage.
We stayed two nights and enjoyed the bush setting. Pity it wasn’t cold enough to have the fire on. Lounge comfortable. Has Foxtel but no wifi. Kitchen a bit small if you like to cook. Small fenced area attached to house so easy to toilet the dog. Host helped with fixing gas for hot water. Nice bath tub. Air conditioner and extra blankets available.
