About Poppy's Cottage
Poppy's Cottage B&B, set on 140 acres, is only 5 to 10 minutes from the
heart of Armidale. Enjoy cosy and warm accommodation in the historic
"Settlers' Cottage" adjoining the heritage homestead. The Cottage
(originally a gold miners' cottage, transported from Hillgrove by Bullock
team), is set in about 2 acres of established, leafy, English style garden,
interspersed with old-fashioned perennials and roses. With 2 bedrooms and
ensuite, the cottage is well equipped and totally private. Wonderful
breakfasts include a large selection of fresh and poached fruits, yoghurt,
freshly squeezed orange juice as well as a full cooked breakfast. During the
warmer weather, this will be served to you in the garden under the canopy of
the fruit trees, to the music of birdcall, or perhaps the odd moo from a cow
from the paddocks! Children may enjoy feeding the pet animals, and
collecting eggs from the hens.
Poppy's Cottage is the ideal base to experience Armidale's culture and
tourist attractions. Further along the road, you may visit the world class
Oxley Wild Rivers National Park and the spectacular waterfalls. (The walks
in the park are stunning). You might enjoy tasting wines from the adjacent
winery, and perhaps sample a delicious lunch in the gardens of the vineyard
homestead during the weekends. Your hosts look forward to making you
welcome..
