Sundown Cabin Armidale

Enjoy a thoroughly modern, but beautifully rustic farm experience at Sundown Cabin. Situated on 25 acres, 10 minutes’ drive from Armidale’s fabulous cafés, restaurants and shopping.
The space
Stay in a unique studio cabin, with comfortable king bed, luxurious bathroom, log fire and well-equipped kitchenette. Outside is an undercover area complete with barbeque, outdoor lounge and seating and fire pit (seasonal use per RFS rules). Inside is a comfortable couch, tv and dining area. The kitchenette has a kettle, coffee machine, toaster, microwave, small oven, and stove burners, and all the essentials for preparing a meal.
Guest access
The owners are in a house on the property, but you will have your own entrance, fenced yard and plenty of peace and space to soak up the fabulous view. You are welcome to take a walk through the main paddock (check the gates, so no one escapes) take a dip in the dam – though you would be mad in winter and dogs are welcome to join you, though we ask them to keep off the furniture please.
Other things to note
Our property is best described as a hobby farm in progress . We are originally a family from Sydney who moved to this lovely place early 2022 and are slowly creating the farm we dreamed about . We do have cattle , which are lovely , but are livestock and so we ask you to keep animals away from them and respect any “rules “ we have for your safety ( and the cows ) .

The cottage was so unbearably cold that despite a log fire, electric blankets and a tiny electric heater we could not bare it. Freezing drafts leaked in around every window and door and the owner advised they were unable to provide us with any additional heating. We ended our stay a day early and moved on.

Idealic views and location!!

We really enjoyed our time here, being that it was June long weekend, it certainly came with cold and windy weather!!The cabin was clean and comfortable with everything that you need! You are able to cook if you want to stay in, you aren't far from town if you want to eat out. The bed was comfortable the shower has enough pressure, it's quirky and there are little touches everywhere that make you smile. The host even bought a hair dryer when I asked if there was one, so they are very accommodating!The cabin is full of love and care everywhere, even tho it isn't quite finished. It lost 1 star as it has some significant drafts and it's hard to get the place comfortably warm, even with the wood fire burning day and night. It would have been great if we had arrived with the fire going (with that in mind) but it was not. The shower also needs a screen so you can close the door, or maybe a heater in the bathroom.I think we will be back, but probably in the spring! I can't wait to see what else they do to the place! Well worth the stay and it's well priced!!

Sunshine at Sundown Cabin

My wife and I, and our dog, stayed at Sundown Cabin as part of a two week road trip of NSW. The cabin was clean, spacious and well appointed - especially the kitchen which had every convenience for home cooking. Communications with the host before, during and after the stay were excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the cabin, and its farm setting.

A touch of farm life

we enjoyed the rustic nature of the stay. Delicious warm bed, bathroom with all that you need, nice loung area. Kitchen was spacious. Some great touches…. Friendly cows, lovely view of farmland, plenty of firewood for the slow combustion heater, Even in the pouring rain that we experienced we felt cosy. Nice dog space for our old dog who cant go up and down stairs. Flat out to the grass.

Lovely accommodation with extra touches

We loved the cabin. It’s the perfect place to stay and explore the area and then chill on the veranda soaking up the view . We loved the little extra touches such as the crisps, beer and wine. We’d definitely stay here again if we came back to this area. Highly recommended !!!

Country stay near Armidale

We had a lovely stay at Castledoyle. The cottage had everything we needed and was very quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed walking in the paddock and evening drinks out front. Thank you for the thoughtful touches ( chips, beer etc ). The cottage was really in character and tastefully decorated too. Pity we couldn’t stay longer.

Rustic Accommodation Experience

The cottage was a delightful country stay. With cool weather outside at night the slow combustion wood fire kept us snug and warm. The timber lined internal fittings have been tastefully installed and give the rustic appearance of a log cabin. Outside the open country vista provided fantastic sunsets and sunrises. Our dog enjoyed the enclosed yard and the long walks around the property. We look forward to staying there again.
