Orangewood early family Christmas

Lovely spot to stay as a bigger group. Really kid friendly ..space, toys, games and the pool. Well stocked and equipped kitchen and laundry. We enjoyed the views, the quiet ( apart from happy kid noise!!) and the space. Beautiful welcome hamper and a Xmas tree and decorations for the kids to decorate...thoughtful. Thankyou

Peaceful and private

A lovely, quiet country property within easy reach of the convenience of Orange. The pool was a huge hit with the kids - great size and very clean. The house was well equipped with everything you need, including a generous welcome hamper. Books, games, TVs, wifi etc. We were a bit concerned about the lack of air con given it was mid-summer, but even though the days were warm the house stayed cool, and the elevation gave us a beautiful cool breeze every night. A wonderful stay.

Excellent house for family stay

My family and I stayed at “Orangewood” for my mum’s 70th birthday. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The children loved the toy room and the wide selection of board games and books available. The adults enjoyed having two sitting areas near fire places and the well equipped kitchen. We appreciated the heaters and electric blankets. It would be great to stay there one time in Summer to make use of the great sized pool too.

A relaxing retreat

"Orangewood" is a very comfortable 5 bedroom home that perfectly suited our family country getaway in April. Mary, the owner, organised a very generous welcome food basket with an array of local products, including fresh eggs. The sun streamed in to the kitchen/family room area, an area which was ideal for meals. Two wood burning fireplaces warmed us at night. The charming village of Millthorpe is a short drive down the road and I can highly recommend the Millthorpe Hotel for dinner. "Tonic" is a very popular high end restaurant as well. If you are looking for a spacious home situated in the countryside with stunning rural scenery, this is the place!

'ORANGEWOOD' DELIGHT

A fabulous property close to historic Millthorpe and Orange which is perfect for a family. So much space inside and out for children to explore. Fabulously equipped kitchen, great lounge areas and all bedrooms with comfortable beds. I highly recommend this property and thanks to Mary for being so easy to deal with, answering all my questions and providing such a great place for a family holiday. Robyn S November 2022

Country Cosiness

A beautiful property. Loved the fireplaces. Lovely large kitchen with everything in it. The only criticism is that an extra bathroom would have helped with ten adults, but we managed. Would absolutely stay again. We all enjoyed the surrounds and the recommendations to wineries etc. 🙏

Spacious and cosy home in a beautiful setting

Wonderful place spacious enough for our group of eleven from 3 families. We found the two sitting areas with fireplaces quite homely and cosy which made sitting around chatting with a glass of wine, a relaxing experience. The quite literally Orange sunrise made us brave enough to venture out for few photographs at 6am despite single digit temperatures. Wish we had more that two nights to enjoy the place more.

What a wonderful stay. Absolutely perfect for what we were after. We loved the house layout, multiple lounges gave the kids and parents separate areas with the central kitchen great for meals. Loved the real fires and the grounds and the outlook was breathtaking. Highly recommended and we will be back.

Perfect for us

Our group had a great stay! The house is in a great location and is very well set up for groups. There was everything we needed! The welcome basket was enjoyed by everyone. The living space was enormous both inside and out. The location was stunning and being out of town maybe us all relaxed. The views were easy to take in every day. Our only disappointment was that that we were not staying longer! We will definitely be back and highly recommend staying here!

Gorgeous property - exceptional time

I went away to this property with two other families. The layout was perfect - two living areas - both with fireplaces. Snowing outside but warm and cosy inside. The property was very well designed - it took advantage of the northern sun. The kids had a wonderful time - they went on walks and got outside to play ball - just in front of the beautiful view. Every need was met. From electric blankets on the beds to condiments in the cupboard. We were also left an enormous hamper of local produce. This included wines, cakes, jams, pickles, eggs, speciality salts, lemon butter, local museli (with hazelnuts) and more. Thanks to the host for making our stay so special.

A beautiful country home with a massive pool!

What a great getaway from the city. The property is expansive and the views are spectacular. We travelled here for a summer break and even though it was big for our family, the pool sold us. When we got there, it was better than expected. I think we would return at some point in the future - maybe with some friends to fill the extra rooms.
