About this farm stay rental

Getaway & relax in a lovely small group holiday house in the Snowy Mountains region. Top of the Range is 1200m above sea level and located 8 km's out of Berridale & 13km from East Jindabyne on the Kosciuszko Rd . This country home provides lodge style accommodation with a large lounge/dining room, a well equipped kitchen and a separate laundry/drying room. It has a large covered veranda with 180 degree panoramic views of the countryside. There are 2x Queen size bedrooms with Ensuites, and 2x Double bedrooms sharing a third bathroom. There is also a separate toilet. The 300 hectare property has many kilometres of bush tracks which abound in native flora and fauna. Our spacious grounds and entertainment areas are perfect for the family or group booking.
To the west is the main snowy range & from the house you can look down the Thredbo valley to Crackenback top station & Mt Kosciuszko. At night you can see the lights at the top of the Thredbo chairlift. As we are in the Snowy Mountains region, you have vistas with and without snow depending on the season you visit, and you have the seclusion of the bush all around.
To the East we look across the Monaro plains to the Wadbilliga National Park & the coastal ranges above Narooma, Tilba Tilba & Bega.

Flora & Fauna

There is a diverse selection of plants, trees, fungi and mosses with a beautiful display of native wildflowers to be admired while out strolling, walking, hiking or braving the more adventurous mountain bike trails on the 300 hectare property. Many visitors head to the creek valley for a change of scenery. There is a 200-metre drop from the ridge to the creek bed and Coolamatong Lake. At Top of the Range you are right among many of our unique native animals. These include Kangaroos, Wallabies, Echidna, Wombats & Emus. We also have Deer & Alpacas roaming around the property.
Our 300 hectare property has many kilometres of dirt roads & rugged bush tracks for the mountain bike, trail bike, & bushwalkiing enthusiasts.
We have a deep river gorge at the back of the property with a vertical drop of about 200 metres, which will test the most capable mountain climber. It is about 1.5 km from the house, so a good energetic morning stroll away.

Location

The property is 45 minutes drive to the Thredbo & Perisher Valley ski slopes.
Mt Selwyn snowfields are about 75 minutes away.
In summer, trout fishing in the lakes & mountain streams is also very close at hand, with Lake Jindabyne 10 minutes away, & the Thredbo river & Lake Eucumbene only 25 minutes drive.

The house had everything we needed for a winter holiday with friends - a great kitchen, lots of room and a big fireplace that warmed the whole house. They were even kind enough to set the fire up ready for our arrival. Would stay again.

Perfect location and facilities for our ski trip (Perisher). Our 2 families comfortably stayed and enjoyed the warmth of this large but cosy cottage. It had everything we needed and Russ was so lovely to deal with and meet on site.

We were wanting a place to escape and we found it. Set high on the ridge this place is very comfortable, with stunning views of the plains below, and still close enough to the town of Berridale and Jindabyne. Great communication with the owner too.

Lovely place. Nice feeling of a home rather than a rental place. Stayed here 3 times and will be back next year.

A good property with lots of extras
A good property with lots of extras
Although we stayed in Spring, this place would be very comfortable in Winter. Ample heating; comfy, warm beds; best fireplace I’ve ever used and adequate hot water if you use it wisely. The views and wildlife are amazing and the kitchen and entertainment provisions are more than enough. Bathrooms and bedrooms are a bit outdated but if you get past that, it is a great place to stay comfortably.
