Lovely place for short break
We had a lovely stay here - very clean, beds were super comfy (best two nights sleep we’ve had in ages), kids had fun roasting marshmallows in the fire pit and watching the sunset from the bath! Beautiful views and handy to Bathurst (15 mins) for provisions, or the O Connell Hotel for dinner (5 mins). Thanks, we had a great weekend!

A Delight!
We had the loveliest stay in the yurt in O'Connell. The Yurt was spacious and was thoughtfully styled, and just magical. The views from the deck were gorgeous, and I couldn't have asked for a better location to go see Mayfield Gardens, and other sights around Oberon.

Beautiful countryside views
We felt at home from the moment we walked in to the beautiful yurt. Comfortable beds, nice clean bathroom and a kitchenette with everything you need. The views from the yurt are peaceful and beautiful - hilly pastures with sheep, cows and many colourful birds. It was a wonderful few days and we’d love to come back one day.
