Beautiful host, beautiful location, and a beautiful cottage. Danara is just beautiful in every way. We couldn’t have asked for a more relaxing stay.

Absolutely nothing. It exceeded our expectations.

The cottage is amazing, facilities are clean, tidy and well maintained. Cassie and Nathan are amazing hosts and allowed us to walk around the property to meet all their animals etc

Look honestly it is great! We left behind a couple of things that were little bits we thought it needed ie some sponges and paper towel to wipe down benches etc etc

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.

I think it was an oversight, but there were no toiletries in the bathroom in terms of soap, body wash or shampoo for the shower. There was handwash and moisturiser for the bathroom sink but no supplies for the shower.

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!

Only downside, The host was too nice told us to stay till evening for free… and we still had to leave early 😅
