Pick by mood,
not by feature.
A two-bedroom country house with a verandah that catches the afternoon sun and a wood fire for the nights that turn cold.
Two king bedrooms, two ensuites. Living room with a slow combustion wood fire. A long verandah. Outdoor firepit, a big undercover dining table, a back paddock you can walk straight into. Slow weekends; quiet milestones; long family Sundays.
A proper bed and proper linen, under proper canvas, in a paddock that doesn't see anyone you didn't bring with you.
Plush rugs, a heater for the cold nights, an air-conditioner for the hot ones, a record player for either. A short path to your own amenities pod with hot shower and kitchen. The Brokenback Range sits on the western horizon. Outside the door, the dark.
Somewhere between a summer holiday in 1975 and a very good night's sleep.
A restored vintage van with a double bed inside. Beside it, a covered pavilion with its own bathroom, a kitchen, an outdoor bath, lounge chairs and a dining table. The most playful of the three, and the most likely to make you smile when you spot it from the road.
Three very different stays, all considered. Pick whichever sounds like the version of your weekend you actually want.
| Stay | Sleeps | Best for | Bathroom | Children |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Cottage | 4 guests | Two couples, small family | Two ensuites | Welcome · portacot and high chair on request |
| The Bell Tent | 2 guests | A couple, two slow nights under canvas | Private pod · hot shower | Adults only · babies welcome with your own bedding |
| The Caravan | 2 guests | A nostalgic weekend for two | Private pavilion · hot shower | Adults only · no children or infants |
Anything else, email info@brokeestate.com.au and one of the family will answer.
Two nights, across all three stays. Long weekends and holiday periods can carry a three-night minimum — the booking calendar will tell you when.
Check in from 3pm, check out by 11am. Let us know if you need a little flexibility and we will do what we can.
No. The road in is dirt but well maintained and suitable for any car, including low-clearance ones. Drive slowly — there are cattle and kangaroos about.
Yes. We supply wood, kindling and fire starters for the indoor fire and the outdoor firepit. Firepits are seasonal and closed over the warmer months — we will confirm for your dates when you book.
Tea, coffee, salt, pepper and cooking oil are provided, along with cookware, crockery and cutlery. Bring the rest of your groceries — the village store has the basics and petrol, and Singleton or Cessnock have full supermarkets.
Yes. Beds are made up with proper linen and towels are provided in every stay.
A full refund if you cancel five or more days before arrival, and a 50% refund up to one day before.
No pets, sorry — it is a working cattle farm with our own working dogs. Bella, Bindi and Banjo will happily stand in.
In the Cottage, yes — a portacot and high chair are available on request. The Bell Tent is adults only, though babies are welcome if you bring your own bedding. The Caravan is adults only, with no children or infants.
Telstra reception is reliable; other carriers can be patchy. All three stays have wi-fi.
Self check-in. We send directions ahead of time and the access code on the morning of your arrival, and we are usually on the farm if you need us.
No platform, no call centre. Your booking, your questions, and the reply you get all come from one of the four of us. Email info@brokeestate.com.au or call (02) 4088 8883.
