Forget Airbnb. Mudgee’s locally-owned Bliss Stays offers the region’s most diverse range of accommodation, from farm stays to family-friendly cottages. With over 70 properties under management, there’s a blissful home-away-from-home for every traveller visiting the region.
Whether you’re after a rural farm stay surrounded by expansive green fields, a big house just a stone’s throw from Mudgee’s cafes and shops, or a pet-friendly property to enjoy with your furry companion, you’ll find the home you’re looking for with Bliss Stays.
Each property in the Bliss Stays portfolio is unique, yet they share common features that set them apart. Expect an outdoor area with a BBQ, a fully equipped kitchen, and child-friendly activities for families. Each Bliss Stays property offers a true home-away-from-home experience, thoughtfully decorated with special homely touches that make your stay unforgettable.
‘If you could write a book on the perfect B&B, this would be it‘, says Tom after his stay at Kialla Cottage. Taryn, a guest at Bellevue, adds, ‘Our kids called it the best holiday ever.‘
It’s not just the beautiful range of properties that has skyrocketed the business‘s popularity. Like most of the region’s residents, owner Liss McGowan is passionate about sharing the local produce and its creators with Bliss Stay guests. Choose from a long list of add-on extras to make your stay that extra special.
There’s nothing better than walking into your home for the weekend to a hamper of artisanal delights. Bliss Stay’s Grazing Boxes are assembled like one delicious rainbow. You’ll find fresh goods ready to tuck into, from local cheeses from High Valley to cured meats, warm bread and something sweet – among other treats!
For those lazy mornings that call for breakfast in bed – or kangaroo spotting – the Breakfast Hamper makes the perfect start to your day. Opt for continental or a hot breakfast delivered straight to your door. How good?
The Gourmet Hamper is the gift that keeps on giving, loaded with locally-made and hand-crafted goodies that can be taken home and enjoyed for months to come. Think olive oils, chutneys and relishes.
While Mudgee’s not short of things to do during your stay – think nature hikes, museum-hopping and indulging at gourmet eateries – Mudgee’s 35-plus cellar doors and wineries are too good to miss. Hand-pick your favourites and explore the region’s delicious wines. Choose a half-day or full-day tour, starting with a pick-up from your doorstep.
If the relaxing countryside isn’t enough to quiet your mind, an in-house yoga class will do the trick. Melt into your mat and reset your body and mind during a one-hour practice with local Mudgee teacher Hannah Edensor.
