About this property

Charming converted country stable located on a 120 acre horse property

The Stables is located within the surrounds of an established horse riding property, 5 minutes from Moss Vale. The country cottage has only recently been renovated comprising 2 bedroom, 2 bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen, dining room, lounge and paved courtyard. All set amongst beautifully manicured gardens. Not to mention home to over 80 horses and an active riding school that caters for horse enthusiasts from any age. For those cooler nights guests can snuggle up in front of an open fire or sit around the outdoor fire pit and gaze at the Milky Way.

Guests can freely wander around the many laneways or sit by the lake and watch the sun set sipping on a refreshing gin and tonic or a cold beer.



If you have friends or extended family wishing to holiday with you we also offer ‘The Tin Shed’ a converted milking shed - 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom This is a unique cabin with high end finishes to make your stay so very relaxing.
For larger groups we also have 3 beautiful 1 bedroom Hideouts scattered around the property. In total we can accommodate 12 guests ; all enjoying their own private accommodation and yet being able to sit around the fire pit together to share a drink; dinner or watch the sun go down after a farm ride around the property. Ideal for a group of wedding guests .

Visit the multitude of local wineries including Mt Ashby, St Maurs, Artemis. Centennial and Dawning Day or take a drive to Kangaroo Valley and paddle a canoe up the Shoalhaven River.

Mountain bikers can head into the Meryla State Forest just 5 minutes away and explore the many trails through the bush or take a swim in the picturesque Meryla water hole.

So many things to see and do.

Fantastic family experience. Beautifully appointed stable style villa with all mod cons included. Quiet, spacious and peaceful environment amongst the horses and paddocks. Very friendly and helpful hosts provide a perfect rural experience. Couldn’t fault it in any way.

Everything was perfect

We had a lovely little weekend getaway at the property. Everything was accounted for and the surroundings were lovely. Our 3 year old Daughter loved the grounds, (especially the swings) seeing the horses and the friendly dog. We will definitely be back!

Cozy city getaway

We booked this property looking for a chilled weekend getaway from the city… and it’s exactly what we got. The inside is beautifully renovated. The bathroom and tub are stunning. We enjoyed a nice cozy night in by the fire. In the mornings we walked around the grounds with our dog and baby and admired the beautiful horses. Thank you again for sharing your lovely property.

The Stables near Moss Vale

We stayed at the Stables for 3 nights and had exactly the kind of chilled, relaxing time that we were hoping for - in a rustic setting, surrounded by paddocks and horses on an active, well-run farm. The ensuite bedrooms were stunning, the living room cosy and the kitchen had everything we needed. Would definitely be keen to stay again and have no hesitation recommending it.

The Hidden Gem

Thank you Michelle and Peter for your hospitality! The quality touches within the property have exceeded our expectation, we have truly enjoyed our stay at the Stables. Our first horse riding experience has been so memorable, ‘Princess Fiona’ and ‘Snowy’ were so patient with us! Peter has done an excellent job leading the way for both of them and shown us around the farm. We will be recommending the Stables to our friends and families if they are visiting the area in the future. PS: wishing James can fulfil his Olympic dreams in Equestrian, we hope to see his name one day on tv representing Australia!

A peaceful country break

We so enjoyed our stay at the Stables, everything was top quality, and coming from Qld we enjoyed the novelty of an open fire, and we all loved watching the horses. Our Springer Spaniel made a new friend with Snoopy.

Peaceful weekend

Beautiful property, every comfort considered, lots of attention to detail, quality linen and toiletries, super comfy beds and loved browsing the books the owner left. So welcoming on arrival, warm and music playing.. such a thoughtful touch. Coffee machine, well equipped kitchen, bathtub, great shower and open fire were spot on for a relaxing weekend.. Seeing a 2 week old foal In the field opposite the house was really quite special. Loved the little terrace for sitting outside. Quality accomodation. Thanks for a wonderful stay and friendly welcome.

Rosthwaite is heaven for horse lovers and a lovely change from the city

We had a lovely stay at the Stables, Peter and Michelle were great hosts and made sure we had everything we needed. Their knowledge of the area was excellent too, giving us some wonderful dining and sight seeing options. We can’t wait to return to Rosthwaite.
