Escape to your own private rain forest!

Get away from it all! Reconnect with nature in this secluded, self-contained apartment. In the middle of the Aussie bush you'll be staying in your own pad with lots of space and nothing to do. Read a book on the daybed. Wash away your worries in the pool. Go walkabout and look for wallabies, koala's and wombats. Reconnect with your partner through a quiet movie, a board-game or Donkey Kong. It's what we do when we're here and we're excited to share the experience with you! The space is modern with bamboo flooring, open shower and top quality timber work throughout. The studio is semi detached from the main house and completely private. We only invite guests to stay when we're not using the main house, so you're free to enjoy the place and the pool all to yourself. You can also stay connected in this beautiful bushland setting with wireless internet available throughout the property. Fresh towels and linen provided. We also include tea and a Nespresso coffee machine with pods for so you can still get your caffiene buzz while chilling in the bush. Please keep in mind when preparing your meals that it's a 20min drive to the nearest shop, so please come prepared. You're free to use everything in the studio, as well as the camp fire (outside bushfire season), the BBQ, the swimming pool and the outdoor shower. We never book guests consecutive nights, so feel free to check in early from 9am and stay into the afternoon on the day of checkout. We share the property with Roger, my father in law. Who lives on the other side of the block, away from the main house. He moonlights as Santa each December, so don't let the beard scare you. He'll be on hand should you need anything, but you're unlikely to see him other than to greet you and show you around. Bucketty is only an hour north on the M1 and features some of the most beautiful bushland within a short drive of Sydney. Within 20mins you have access to the Laguna Wine Bar, Wollumbi General Store and the Mangrove Mountain memorial club. Roger is happy to offer a round trip taxi service to and from Laguna, Wollumbi or Mangrove Mountain for $60. Please advise in advance if you'd like to organise a ride.
