About this villa rental

Stay in the heart of the village but with the quietness and privacy of acres!
Gather like-minded friends from book groups, knitting clubs, foodies or whatever your passion and get away from the bustle of day-to-day life.

Small Pets are allowed, they need to be house trained, well behaved.
The small Cottage yard has pebble stones. There is no grass area, though there is a back gate leading onto a small park.

Upstairs:
1 x queen size bedroom with ensuite (small bath, shower & toilet) and television
1 x bedroom with 2 x king singles and own bathroom (shower & toilet)
Both bathrooms feature beautiful artisan soaps which have been hand crafted.

Downstairs:
1 x King sofa that can be used as 2 x singles or arranged side by side as 1 x queen bed (not a pull-out) with powder room close by.

Outdoor shower that is perfect for that after beach refresh.

Fully equipped kitchen, but with so many fabulous cafes and restaurants close by, take some time off from cooking.

Relax in the comfortable living area and catch up on some reading or tune into the digital television with Apple TV and Netflix. Grab a book from the library or play one of the boardgames or puzzles.

A bluetooth Beats speaker is available to play your own music.

WEEKEND RATES: cover 4 x guests with an additional charge for Guests 5 and 6.

Foodie delights for all:
Relax out on the sheltered north facing verandah with a fragrant coffee or soothing tea through the morning and replace with a chilled glass of wine or craft beer through the afternoon.

Buy local wines directly from the cellar doors, or visit Justin Lill Wines at 112a Queen Street where all wines are hand selected by Justin with a detailed knowledge of grapes and vintages.

Delicious cheeses and olives and the best duck pate ever from The Emporium Food Co delicatessen at 127b Queen Street, or local produce from the Taste of Shoalhaven in Broughton Court will add to your enjoyment as the sun slips behind the picturesque escarpment.

Stroll across the road to Berry's newest breakfast and lunch venue, Salmon and Co. at 71 Queen Street where Rabbit & Co provide a funky cafe with a distinctly vintage style, serving HYPER HYPER coffee.

Slip next door then, to exquisite boutique shopping at Moss Nest.

Other favourite eateries and restaurants include:
* South on Albany, 3/65 Queen Street (cnr Albany St) has an emphasis on sourcing the freshest seasonal and local produce and has been awarded One Hat.

Winter is the perfect time to sit by one of the comforting open fires.

What to do in Berry:

Various festivals are held through out the year and the Berry monthly markets are not to be missed.

A family fun event on New Year's eve culminating with fireworks.

Walks are also a feature of the area:
Drawing Room Rocks is not to be missed. These are the best directions to find where to start your ascent:
Take Woodhill Mountain Rd (north side of the village), drive 6.7 kms and you will come to a T intersection, you are on the top of the T and turning left would take you to Kangaroo Valley via Wattamolla.
Either park your car here at the T-intersection, or there is limited parking 500 metres away at the true start to the walk (at the cattle grid).
From the T-intersection, walk or drive 200 metres to a right hand fork in the road (do not take either of the right-hand driveways which are near the T-intersection), it is then 300 metres to the cattle grid. From this point it is a steady walk upwards until you reach the lookout where the view and rock formation are stunning.
Your descent will be much quicker than the ascent.

Also worth a visit are:
Bundewallah Walking Track through pristine rainforest.
The Kiama to Gerringong Coast walk.

Golf Courses in the local region include:
The Kangaroo Valley Golf and Country Club
The Shoalhaven Heads Golf Course
The Gerringong Golf Course

Our stay was wonderful. Check in, facilities, location- just perfect. The weather was also amazing and allowed us to sit and enjoy a few drinks on the lovely verandah, which was a beautiful sun trap and great for a winters day.
