Avalanche Homestead

Fodor's Review:

Perched on a hillside in the Tinderry Mountains, this large, modern homestead offers a taste of the "real" Australia. The inviting lounge, where guests tend to gather, is warmed by an open fire. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. Dinners are splendid banquets served in a vast baronial hall. Daily activities include horseback riding, cattle mustering, sheep shearing, trout fishing, and bushwalking. The property is 45 km (28 mi) south of Canberra and adjoins an 80,000-acre nature reserve that abounds with kangaroos, wallabies, wombats, and colorful birds. Rates include all meals and activities, although you can opt for just a bed-and-breakfast option.
