Perfect getaway
Our stay at Abercrombie Ridge was simply outstanding. Russ was incredibly welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. The house was beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, and had all the amenities I could have asked for. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and I slept so well every night. The location was perfect, with the most amazing views. I would highly recommend Abercrombie Ridge to anyone looking for a perfect getaway. Thank you to Russ for making our stay so memorable!

Beautiful, relaxing retreat
We were greeted with big smiles on entry, and our kids loved their friendly kelpies. The Barn was so tastefully designed, you can tell the owners take great pride and no expense was spared. For myself, it was just super relaxing, the views were incredible, nothing beats the beautiful country side. For my kids, the experience was magic, waking up in the morning to look out the window and see deers and kangaroos, they just couldn't contain their excitement. We flew kites, played lots of outdoor games, and made the most of the games room. We all really had a great time, thank you.

About the host

Hosted by Russ Plummer

Host profile image
My husband and I have been together for 20 years and we actually live on-site in the Stables. It's our full-time gig to make sure this place is in tip-top shape for all our visitors. We fell in love with this beautiful country getaway and wanted to share it with others.

Creating Abercrombie Ridge has been a labor of love for us over the past 11 years to get it to where it is today. We've put our blood, sweat, and tears into refreshing the property and making it a warm and inviting space for everyone to enjoy.
When you step into The Barn, you'll feel the love that's been poured into it. We're so excited to share this space with you and look forward to welcoming you and your guests to our special piece of paradise.

Why they chose this property

Abercrombie Ridge is located about 26kms from Taralga and 70kms from Goulburn.

We recommend bringing all the essentials, including food and alcohol before leaving town, ands don't forget to top up on fuel before leaving town as we're quite remote!

While you're here, there are plenty of things to do in the local area. You can visit Taralga Wildlife Park or Wombeyan Caves, enjoy a meal at Laggan Pantry, The Argyle Inn or the Sports Club (where all the locals go), or grab a drink with friends at The Taralga Hotel or Laggan Brewing Co. If you're interested in history, the Taralga Historical Society has some interesting relics on display.

For the adventurous, there are also some great places to visit nearby, such as Mayfield Gardens, Abercrombie National Park, and Jenolan Caves, as well as our neighbouring towns of Crookwell, Goulburn, and Oberon – all great towns worth exploring, be sure to see what our beautiful region has to offer!

What makes this property unique

Once on the property, you have complete exclusive use of the facilities and property.

You can enjoy your amazing PRIVATE hot tub which is perfect with a few glasses of wine on sunset or relaxing under the stars.

We have a full games room for the big kids or little kids which has ping pong, pool, giant Jenga, giant chess and foosball.

The property also provides hours of bushwalking and hiking tracks down to the Abercrombie River. If you're planning on exploring the property, make sure to pack some closed walking shoes or trainers, and consider wearing long pants. We want you to be comfortable and safe while enjoying the beautiful views and scenery.
