High Ground Estate Cottage

High Ground Cottage - perfect eco-aware accommodation for your family holiday in the Snowy Mountains all year round. Located on High Ground Estate, a 147-acre property, we are only 10 minutes out of town, but a world away.

Views in every direction, whatever season, High Ground Cottage is designed to look after you. Superbly insulated, with a full kitchen, open living and dining area, and three bedrooms that accommodate King beds or twin singles, it's versatile too.

High Ground Cottage is an eco-friendly off-grid property. It's the perfect place for your family holiday. The cottage, and our main homestead, are both powered from an off-grid solar energy system. The appliances and comforts in the Cottage are all energy efficient and superbly effective in making your stay extremely comfortable. We ask that you are aware of this and are respectful in your energy and water consumption with some simple awareness, eg. run the washing machine during the day, switch unnecessary lights off and limit long showers to assist in conserving these resources.

• Fully fenced yard.

• Pet friendly (outdoors only in fully fenced yard. No unaccompanied pets allowed inside (eg no pets left alone inside)).

• Full bath in the bathroom, plus shower.

• Drying space for snow gear including boot and glove dryers.

On the property, we have a friendly resident Alaskan Malamute Sullivan aka "Sully", miniature goats, alpacas, chickens, and cattle coming soon. The property is an alpine safari with frequent viewings of deer, kangaroos, wombats, horses, rabbits, birds and much more.
