With four distinct properties, each full of character and charm, Budgee Budgee Farm is the perfect getaway for couples and groups seeking a slice of rural life.
Situated on a 33-acre property, Budgee Budgee Farm’s unique, pet-friendly cabins invite you to slow down and enjoy the peaceful rhythms of the countryside. Let’s take a peek at Budgee’s beautiful stays.
Loved for its: Clawfoot tub with sunset views
Black Springs boasts a rustic facade, with old-world charm and contemporary comforts waiting within. The cabin’s raw timber, brick and corrugated iron exteriors almost disappear into the surrounding gum trees – much like any stress you may have carried with you.
During the winter, snuggle up next to the indoor wood-burning fireplace stocked with pre-chopped wood. If you prefer your fires under the stars, take a seat by the outdoor fire pit and don’t forget your marshmallows. The cabin’s pièce de résistance, however, is the freestanding indoor clawfoot bath. Melt into the warm water with a glass of your favourite Mudgee wine. The dramatic sunset sky will be all the entertainment you need.
Loved for its: Outdoor woodland bathtub
The one-bedroom Gully Cabin evokes a sense of timelessness, where every detail has been carefully chosen to transport you to what feels like a different era. With deep Prussian blue walls set against timber floorboards and antique furnishings, The Gully feels like a cherished relic of a bygone era, offering a retreat far removed from the daily grind.
Spend your weekend soaking in the simple pleasures of life, like sinking into a soothing alfresco bath surrounded by the stillness of the bush. Warning: you may lose track of time. There’s nothing quite like soaking under the stars or listening to the rustle of leaves in the breeze.
Loved for its: Barbeque and fire pit for nights dining under the stars
The three-bedroom, three-bedroom Apple Tree Cottage
strikes a brilliant balance between rustic charm and modern comforts equipped for families or groups of friends.
Indoors, relax among the spacious open living and dining areas, where a roaring fireplace takes centre stage in winter. There’s plenty of seating outside too, with a big wrap-around veranda featuring the best seat in the house – the breezy hammock complete with picturesque views. As the sun sets, the barbeque and fire pit beckon for a night of dining under the stars, making the most of Mudgee’s bright, expansive skies.
Loved for its: Large outdoor area and sweeping views
Perched on the highest point of Budgee Budgee Farm, Ilkley House offers spectacular views over the south of Mudgee and north to the farm’s native fruit orchard. With five bedrooms and three bathrooms, there’s ample room to spread out and soak in the farm’s tranquil surroundings.
After a day of exploring, flop into the living room’s cosy sofa next to one of the open fireplaces. If the fresh air is calling your name, unwind next to towering gum trees in the large garden; a natural sanctuary often occupied by wallabies, magpies and kookaburras. If you’ve got kids in tow, they’ll love you for the cottage’s trampoline and marshmallow-ready fire pit.
