About this property

GlynNewydd is the perfect place to unwind with family & friends, pets welcome

The Glyn Newydd homestead and cottage can be found 17 km south along Megalong road, overlooking the beautiful Megalong Valley with escarpment views.
This stunning accommodation is set on a 40 acre property which includes an organic olive grove, green paddocks with horses and an abundance of australian wildlife.
All this only 15 minutes away from Blackheath and 2 1/2 hours from Sydney.
The main house (homestead) has 3 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms and the house is heated by A ducted airconditioner and a fire place in winter, the thick walls and wrap around verandah keeps the house cool in summer.
The additional Cottage is available to rent when you come in with more then 6 people or if you are with a group where you need a bit more privacy. The cottage is next door to the homestead
The cottage has 2 bedrooms and is heated by a slow combustion wood heater in winter.

Glyn Newydd offers you everything you need to enjoy your stay. Take in the early morning sunrise over the valley and spot the kangaroos or enjoy a glass of wine watching the colors of the escarpment change to orange and red as the sun sets.

We grow olives on our property, they are grown the organic way
We grow olives for oil (Leccino and Frantic variety) and olives for table fruit (Kalamata, manzanillo and picholine)
There is usually a variety of produce available at the homestead for you to buy using the honesty system(cash)

For those who are more adventurous and active, you can explore the property and get to know the horses or walk your dog (yes , we are pet friendly !).
The valley offers a great variety of bush walks and has some of the best horse riding in the blue mountains.

Best Christmas
Stunning, breathtaking location. We arrived a few days before Christmas and had a lovely, restful time. Well equipped house, with everything we needed. Clean and comfortable, with many spaces to relax and enjoy the environment. Half an hour to Blackheath, with a lovely, picturesque drive. Loved the cafe and vineyard nearby. My father described the week as his most memorable Christmas.

We are a family of 5, with a Dutch back ground, all children are born here in ustralia
We lived in the homestead for the first 7 years we owned it and our children went to Megalong public school.
We used to rent out the cottage as a bed & breakfast.
Since then we have moved back to sydney and have been renting out the homestead and cottage successfully for years.
Many of our guest are returning every year or more then once a year as they have fallen in love with our beautiful place.
