Notes from the host
Stunning Cedar Tree Farm Stay On a river
Closest property to Bebeah Wedding Venue. Set on 7 acres of pretty farm land and situated 60 minutes from Sydney CBD, this serene and picturesque property offers privacy and tranquillity. Michael Cooke designed gardens around the house.
Take in incredible valley vistas whilst relaxing on the balcony and look out for wombats, wallabies, lyrebirds, fireflies and bush turkeys. Listen to the abundant frogs croaking and birdsong. Occasionally there are cows or horses in the paddocks. Watch the sky come alive with stars at night and spot wildlife including the occasional deer.
For relaxation languish beside our firepit under the stars, sit on a mossy rock under majestic cedar trees, cool down in our creek at the bottom of the paddock.
If you're energetic walk along the 2km creek that borders our property spotting platypus and bird life. You can jump straight into our clean and refreshing creek to cool off in summer. Stroll amongst our Olives taking in the 300 trees that make up this pretty and meditative grove. For the energetic head out the gate straight onto the Great North Walk to The Basin. Or take advantage of the many attractions listed below.
The house enjoys a pretty sunlight filled lounge/ dining area with beautiful views from every window. The new kitchen and bathroom, complete with fluffy towels, give the house that touch of luxury. A large open fireplace completes the experience either for romance or a fireside chat with friends. We have plenty of firewood to set you up for a cosy winter night. Ducted heating and air conditioning throughout the cottage and ceiling fans make life comfortable in both summer and winter.
The Living room is an intimate space for you and your friends to play scrabble, board games or do a puzzle. Our well stocked games cupboard offers so many choices. Or just settle in and watch a movie. There is a sofa bed in the lounge that can sleep 2 extra people, one on top and one on the pull out floor mattress under it.

Guest reviews in our on site guestbook:
"Christine was awesome and so understanding every time we spoke with her. Her property is a must for anyone who wants to unwind and enjoy peace and nature. Everything about the property speaks love and care that has gone into keeping it the way it is. Will not only be visiting again very soon but will definitely be telling all our friends and family too about this beautiful farm."
"Christine was a fantastic host. The place is magical, would highly recommend"
"Highly recommend this place. I stayed here the night before my wedding with my bridesmaids. Perfect views to wake up to & get photos in front of. The house was amazing!"
"Great place to unwind for a few days! Beautiful property and short trip up to Wollombi and the Hunter. Highly recommend!"
"There are so many positive things to say about this property. We absolutely loved our stay at Cedar Tree Farm. The property is breathtakingly beautiful. The house itself is nicely done ( better than the pics ) and comfortable to stay in. If you are looking for tranquillity and some time out in nature I would highly recommend this property. Christine was a fantastic host quick to respond and very accommodating. "
"What a fantastic secluded property! Our children loved running around the property and exploring we even saw a platypus down at the creek. The house is set up well and Christine responds very quickly to any questions or requests."
"Beautiful place. We recently had a baby and this was our first with our little one. The place has all the amenities that you need. Bathroom even had a changing table for the baby. 😃 We were given clear instructions for everything by Christine. And communication with her was amazing. Will definitely consider staying here again."
"An absolutely dream of a getaway. We were stranded without power just before Christmas after a freak Storm hit the northern beaches. We booked Christine's Airbnb and were very concerned Christmas was not going to be the same. Christine's house made our Christmas the best ever. The views, the stars, the animals. It was pure peace and tranquility. We loved every minute."
"Fantastic place to stay with some mates for a weekend bike riding trip. Thanks for having us. Would highly recommend."
"We are a regular Airbnb travellers and would rate Christine’s place is one of the nicest, best located, and real perfect place of all the places we have stayed with my family. The place was very clean, modern, had everything we needed to feel at home, and was an easy walk to all the sites we wanted to see, especially beautiful mountains, rivers and forest. Communication was great too. We would highly recommend this wonderful house. Especially my little boy(6months old) he was very happy and comfortable in this house. Highly recommend. I will come back and stay again🙏🏼😘😭"
"Truely the most amazing property I’ve ever stayed at. The pictures don’t do it justice, it was peaceful, serene and surrounded by nature entirely disconnected from the works around it. It was by far the most relaxing airbnb I’ve ever stayed at, couldn’t see another building or hear a neighbour.. The walks up the country road and the fresh air we’re the stuff of dreams. We saw roadrunners, turtles, bush turkeys, cows, horses and also found the wombat burrow but sadly he wasn’t home. 5/5 stars I will be back."
"Perfect stay for a getaway off the grid, not too far from home. Our family (& dog) loved being completely surrounded by the view and sounds of nature. The home is very spacious and comfortable for lounging. We spent our days exploring the property (olive grove, creek and wombat holes), greeting neighboring animals, morning walks through tree lined streets, lunching on the patio, playing croquet and migrating from the outdoor to indoor fire. Thanks Christine!"
"Very peaceful location with lovely walks but also within 30 minutes of a range of activities. House is very clean and well equipped, beds super comfy. We loved having the cows in the front paddock to keep us amused and the pool table kept us busy on the rainy days. Christine is extremely helpful and quick to respond to queries. "
"Just returned from a wonderful week at Cedar Brush Farm. The children adored the freedom of the paddocks, creek, meandering with the cows and horses. Were fortunate to enjoy a few days at some of the best Central Coast beaches, returning to the serenity of the farm to toast marshmellows and stargazing. Best holiday ever!"
"Cedar Tree Farm is a hidden gem. A beautiful little farm house tucked away down a gorgeous valley only 90 mins from Sydney. Christine is an excellent host, beautiful little touches, easy check in and had a spare high chair and cot when we forgot our own. Waking up to misty mornings, cows in the paddock and long walks. The perfect escape! Will be back again. "
"What a hidden gem! This place is stunning. Comfortable, clean and well appointed. Our whole family, including Doug (the dog), enjoyed our escape to the country. The verandah is fabulous, wrapping around with 360 degree views. Beds are very comfortable, the lounge is large and cosy and the kitchen is fully equipped. We are looking forward to going back someday. "
"Beautiful house and property! We had a lovely weekend escape with friends and our pups. Christine's house has everything you could need for long lunches and lazy afternoons on the porch. We can't wait to go back! "
