Linnaeus Farm, Berry - by Linnaeus Collection
Summary:
Linnaeus Farm is set on 3.5 hectares of lush, manicured grounds, just a few minutes from the bustling, historic village of Berry, the jewel in the crown of the Shoalhaven district on the NSW south coast. Berry oozes country charm and sophistication and is also just 10 minutes drive from renowned Seven Mile Beach and its long stretches of pristine sands.
The Space:
When you drive through the stately, stone entryway and the gates shut quietly behind you, Linnaeus Farm invites you to make time, just for you. Slow the clock down a bit and immerse yourself in laid-back, 5 star luxury in this home away from home while you enjoy mother nature at her best - expansive 360 degree views of the rolling, green countryside dotted with cows, and a dramatic escarpment and Saddleback Mountain beyond.
The property is a masterclass in high-end finishes and a minimalist, warm aesthetic. There are separate entertaining areas, open-plan kitchen, living, dining areas, all flooded with natural light. Hand-made ceramics and bathroom tiles, oversized rain shower heads and a deep free-standing bath is a feature in one of the luxury bathrooms. And come night time, you’ll sink into the luxury of hotel-standard beds.
Spend a balmy summer in the gardens or by the resort-style pool, or in the cooler months, roast marshmallows over the fire pit at sunset. Enjoy a moment of zen with meditation or yoga in the lake house. For deep, restorative healing, step into the dedicated wellness area. Here, you can soak away the day's tension in the luxurious outdoor hot tub, purify and detoxify in the cutting-edge infrared sauna, or invigorate your body with the intense heat of the steam hot rock sauna before completing the circuit with a bracing, full-body immersion in the ice bath. Linnaeus Farm is a year-round escape for a soul satisfying stay.

Beautiful property
The property is true to the pictures and it was perfect for our multi generational family annual get together. Close to Berry and the beach - but also happy to stay on the property itself.
A property like this needs a lot of care and it is taken care of. I suppose my one down side was the presence of a caretaker there every day and arriving early on the day of check out. That aspect impacted on our sense of privacy.

Linnaeus Farm
An excellent location with many amenities; sauna, pool, bocce and grounds for children to play. Clean and well appointed, with fantastic views, balconies and BBQ to enjoy. Kitchens up stairs and downstairs offered good options. Some minor irritations; delivery truck dropping off a pallet, maintenance men working and mowing lawns during the day when baby asleep, lack of bathroom mat, and upstairs google device not functioning. Highly recommended overall.
