Sandy Acres is 31 acre property consisting of 2 farmhouse dwellings, 1 pool shed, 1 games shed and 1 tractor/work shed in Whittingham.

The property enjoys a real country life feel with the privacy and seclusion that one would expect from an acreage property.

We enjoy both sunrise and sunset views over the surrounding paddocks and rolling hills. In the distance views of mountains and endless skyline to be soaked up.

Due to the property being out of town a little and away from excessive artificial lights, you can enjoy a beautiful stargazing on a clear night sky.

We are on the Golden Highway less than a 10 minute drive to Hermitage Road where you can begin your vineyard adventure on the Hermitage Food and Wine trail as you roll into Pokolbin.

Singleton town centre is also only a 10 minute drive to get any supplies that you may need including Coles, Woolworths, Aldi, Butchers, Bottleshops and much more. There are also several pubs and restaurants if you wish to eat out and delivery options for both food and groceries.

If you wish to try the vineyards less travelled, Broke is only a 17 minute drive to start your wine tour with the less busy but ever friendly vineyards which are quickly growing in popularity.

The gravel driveway is in great condition and has been freshly gravelled in January 2023.

3 x undercover car spaces are available, 2 x in the tractor shed/carport and 1 x under the carport for the cottage but there is plenty of yard parking near both properties for at least another 20 + vehicles.

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT!!

Our property has been managed by other hosts over the past 3 years due to our other commitments but as we now have more time available and a desire to self host we are now managing the property ourselves.

Unfortunately this means that we have lost all of our positive reviews for that period. Rest assured you will have a great stay at our property as have so many others over the years.

INCLUED IN YOUR STAY:
Both homes are stocked with everything you need for entertaining with a variety of cooking utensils, cutlery, glassware, crockery, dishwashing and laundry supplies.
We also supply you with coffee pods, coffee, tea, sugar, milk, shampoo, conditioner, body wash & hand wash.

We are PET FRIENDLY but please note there is no pet enclosure area on the property to stop your pets from roaming should they choose to.
The acreage is fenced with a combination of Post and Rail fencing and wire fencing, there is also 2 x cattle grid upon entrance so please keep that in mind if your four legged friend is a wanderer.

The fire place and fire pit is available for use but we ask that you respect any local fire restrictions and do not light the fire pit in windy conditions due the long grass in surrounding paddocks.
We supply some fire wood for your stay including matches, fire lighters.
