Historic Houses

Historic Houses accommodation invites travellers to step back in time and immerse themselves in the romance of yesteryear amidst the golden light of rural and regional Australia. Quaint cottages, bushman bungalows, or majestic historic houses, whether built with convict bricks, timber, mudbrick, or stone, evoke a sense of nostalgia and romance that transcends generations. With weathered sandstone walls or bluestone exteriors bearing the marks of bygone eras, these houses tell tales of pioneering spirit.

Walking through their halls, one can almost hear the echoes of laughter from soirées and the gentle melodies of music drifting through the air. The scent of polished wood and furniture mingles with the fragrance of native flowers in meticulously tended gardens or rustic native bushland. In the stillness of dawn, as the first rays of sunlight kiss the earth, these historic houses come alive with stories of love and loss, of triumphs and tragedies, bearing witness to the resilience and ingenuity of those who built them.

Today, guests can enjoy modern adaptations and restorations, as Historic House owners and hosts welcome visitors to experience accommodation steeped in history. Passion and purpose drive those who have restored and cared for these buildings, offering a unique opportunity to return to a simpler time, slow down, and immerse oneself in the rich tapestry of Australia’s past and heritage.
