Converted milking shed on a working horse stud

Adventure awaits you in this rustic getaway. Set in the heart of a 120 acre working horse riding property. Set in the beautiful Southern Highlands 5 minutes out of Moss Vale 'Rosthwaite Farm' boasts 5 acres of manicured English gardens, 8 dams and over 70 horses.

The ‘Tin Shed’ has only just been made available to guests after a painstaking renovation over the last couple of years sourcing materials in keeping with the style and architecture of the original building. Actual hardwood timber and corrugated iron from the old milking shed have been incorporated into the high end finishes of the structure to maintain its building's authenticity.

Guests are welcome to roam around the farm and enjoy the gardens or make friends with some of the some 70 odd horses at Rosthwaite Farm. Book a farm ride or a lesson with one of the highly qualified riding instructors available through the reknowned Moss Vale Riding School established by World Cup showjumper - James Arkins.

Enjoy a coffee, lunch or dinner at one of the many establishments in the surrounding villages of Moss Vale, Bowral, Mittagong, Berrima, Sutton Forest, Burrawang, Robertson or Bundanoon or you can just laze about and relax under a tree by the lake and read a book.

If you have friends or extended family wishing to holiday with you we also offer ‘The Stables’’ which is a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom converted cottage . 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 .

A peaceful retreat with warm amenities - perfect for disconnecting
The Tinshed at Rosthwaite Horse Farm is a great place to disconnect from social media, as there is no wifi and very limited network connection. Upon arrival, it was wonderful to see the horses and the sunset. However, the signage was limited, making it difficult to identify which of the many buildings was the 'Tinshed'. Fortunately, we arrived in daylight and used our best memory to recall what the building looked like. Peter greeted us upon arrival and provided excellent recommendations for restaurants and activities... all very close to the Tinshed, including our favourite finds of Exeter (Market & General Store) and the Farm Place for great coffee, pies and cakes. The warm floors in both the room and the toilet were a delightful touch, especially during the winter season. The fluffy towels, crisp linen, and ample pillows added to the comfort of our stay. The kitchen was well-equipped with all the necessary appliances for cooking, including a stove, outdoor BBQ, Nespresso machine, kettle, and microwave. It would have been nice to have some milk and breakfast supplies as an added touch, similar to other places we've stayed at. The two leather chairs in the living area had a funky, unique design, but they weren't very comfortable for long periods of sitting. Overall, it was a pleasant stay with a few minor areas for improvement. If you're looking to disconnect and enjoy a peaceful retreat, this place is a good choice.

Great little getaway!
Beautiful farm and a convenient location. Check in process was a bit weird but once we found the property and settled, we really enjoyed our stay! It was very clean and cozy. Not sure why it says 'hot tub' under popular amenities as there is no hot tub. There was a power outage that was out of the hosts control and no back up power but the hosts allowed us to stay a little longer once the power was back. Would recommend for a night in the Southern Highlands.

Stunning!
From the turn into the driveway, everything about the stay was perfect. The cabin was so beautifully and thoughtfully designed, with everything you could need to enjoy a stay. We walked around the property and saw the horses, enjoyed the sunset by the dam, and loved the fire pit in the evening. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat! Thank you for having us 😊
