The Homestead – Country Comfort, Big on Charm
Welcome to your perfect countryside base – the Homestead at Redgate Farmstay. With its warm, inviting interiors and peaceful surroundings, this spot is what a farmstay Blue Mountains experience is all about – relaxed, scenic, and refreshingly simple.
Ideal for 2-3 families or small groups, the Homestead offers a slice of country living just a few hours’ drive from Sydney. It’s a place to reconnect, recharge, and enjoy the fresh mountain air.
Spacious Open-Plan Layout With A Fully Equipped Kitchen And Double Dining Area
Perfect for shared meals and slow mornings, the Homestead’s heart is its airy, open living space. Cook up a storm or simply gather around the table with loved ones and a bottle of local wine. With two beautiful dining tables connected by the bifold glass doors you can even close out the noise of the kids while keeping an eye on them as you sip your wine and enjoy long conversations into the night while the kids disappear into the games room – ahhh the serenity!
Dedicated Games Room
Our converted double garage is THE place to hang for kids of all ages! With table tennis table, pool table, darts board and a huge second flat screen TV with PS4, it’s endless social fun that will bring cousins, friends and the whole crew together. Rain hall or shine, the games room is the perfect break out space for kids needing to release their energy!
Cosy Lounge With Fire For Those Cool Mountain Evenings
As the sun dips behind the hills, curl up by the fireplace with a book or a board game. It’s country cosiness at its best – especially after a day out exploring the Blue Mountains. And if you want some quick and easy warmth, our split system airconditioners in every room will toast things up for you without the fuss.
Heated Floor Bathrooms
Newly renovated, our bathrooms are beautifully designed for comfort and style! With 3 toilets (and two of these separate), 2 showers and double vanity plus single vanity, large groups will are more than catered for and not find themselves waiting in line for anyone when nature calls! With our additional 6th bedroom + beautiful ensuite (additional space which can be booked for a fee if more than 4 couples or just want the extra room), we can comfortably accommodate up to 20 guests in the Homestead (exclusive to direct website bookings, by enquiry and approval only).
Wrap-Around Verandah With Uninterrupted Views Of The Surrounding Countryside
Step outside and soak in the sweeping rural views – sunrise coffee, sunset wines, and everything in between. It’s the kind of verandah you won’t want to leave.
Jacuzzi
Set at the spot with the best view (though arguably with 360 degrees it’s hard to fault any direction) our 6 person hot spa is perfect for enjoying extended time outdoors in all seasons, whether to cool off in the hot summer, or watching the stars at night with the steam rising around you in the cold winter.
Generous Bedrooms With Comfy Bedding And Charming Decor
Each room is thoughtfully styled to make you feel right at home, with quality linen, soft lighting, and space to truly relax. With bunk beds for kids and fold outs to accommodate your little people in their own spaces, sleep-ins are highly encouraged.
Outdoor Play And Adventure
With a large size vuly trampoline, hand built ninja gym, a long trapeze and outdoor basketball ring, there is endless outdoor fun for the whole family. You may arrive, stay, and not even leave the property for the duration of your stay with us – there’s so much to see and do within our magical space!
Peaceful Paddocks, Trails And Local Wildlife On Your Doorstep
Wake up to birdsong and keep an eye out for kangaroos grazing nearby. Walk the paddocks and trails, say hi to our friendly horses, and discover the Purple Copper Butterfly walk. You may even be lucky enough to spot a White Great Glider in our protected biodiversity area, or a Southern Myotis (tiny little bats). With open space all around, you’ll feel a world away – even though this farm stay Sydney escape is just a short 2 hour drive from the hustle bustle of Sydney city life. Take a morning run up and back along the driveway – one round trip you’ll cover 1.3km and a challenging hill or two! You may meet other guests over the hill in one of our other beautiful accommodations – 2 tiny homes and a Container Home, all privately located along our 650m long and winding driveway!
