The Old Schoolmaster's Cottage by the Barrington River - remember how to relax

The Old Schoolmaster’s Cottage on the Barrington River is nestled cosily in the picturesque Barrington River Valley. Built in the late 1800's our heritage Cottage is one of the oldest original residences in the Barrington Valley. The history of the Cottage has been enhanced by recent renovations which highlight its old-world charm.

The Cottage enjoys a breathtaking position right on the banks of the Barrington River with an outlook over productive working river flats which change colour with the seasons. Sit on the verandah, listen to sounds of the river and overlook the magnificent Bucketts Mountain Range, all of which add to the unique atmosphere of the Cottage.

Swim or go tubing down the Barrington River which is less than 100 metres away, or sit comfortably near the slow combustion fire in the winter months. All year round, the Cottage provides a unique escape into the heart of the countryside.

Canoeing, hiking, mountain biking, horse-riding, fishing, tennis and golf are all nearby. Fifteen minutes in a car takes you to historic Gloucester with cafès, pubs, museums and parks as well as extremely friendly locals.

Clean, comfortable and cosy house in a lovely rural location but also close to Gloucester. Lots of things supplied - linen, a well stocked pantry (basics but handy), great television set up and fire was ready to go! The verandah with excellent outdoor furniture was our favourite place to sit and take in the landscape and local fauna (lots of birds). We loved the big tree in front of the house (great for climbing). The gorgeous Barrington River was easy to access from the property and the kids enjoyed skimming stones and playing on the shore (the river was raging!). Highly recommended.

A well-presented house in a picturesque setting. The property has all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. Great deck to soak in the views. It is a very short stroll down to the river which if we had stayed longer would have made a lovely picnic spot. Highly recommended.

Great property, well set up & fantastic owners - lots to do in the area, but do nothing if you want. Can definitely recommend if you're after peace & quiet.

We had a most relaxing time in this beautifully renovated cottage. Given our stay was mid June it was so good to have a wood fire. Being close to the Barrington river we enjoyed walking in the semi rainforest with its abundant birdlife.We look forward to returning.

Gorgeous house with everything you need. Comfy beds with beautiful linens. Breakfast on the verandah listening to the sounds of the Barrington river which is a 1 min walk through the paddock a great spot to sit and read, have a picnic and a swim.

A beautiful place to stay if you just want to put your feet up and get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Stunning views across cow studded paddocks with the occasional fox and kangaroo popping in for a peek! Still very close to the township of Barrington or Gloucester, if you need extra supplies or a meal. The cottage itself is amazing, very well equipped right down to the stocking of extra goods in the pantry. Beds were very comfortable as was the lounge area. The river was beautiful a photographers paradise, but we left the swimming and raft riding for the more adventurous. A very restful weekend was had and found it very hard to leave.Will definitely be booking again soon. Thank you Jenny for your kind hospitality, and you attention to responding to emails so promptly!

We only stayed a few days but we were impressed. Our boys cooled off in the river and then later we watched a storm come in over the mountains on the lovely verandah. It was convenient for exploring the Gloucester tops and close to Gloucester itself. The old character, but comfortable, living area and modern bathroom were nice features. It was a nice way to give our city slicker kids a slice of the country.

A lovely, well kept cottage with lots of attention to detail. We had a very comfortable stay and the river itself is very special.

We didn't want to leave....ever. So peaceful and quiet, it was as if we had finally come home after a long break. Sitting on the verandah listening to the river babbling away at the end of the garden, birds serenading us, even though it was rainy we were lucky enough to not get wet whenever we went out. The Cottage was very neat and tidy and fully equipped with everything you need and the fireplace kept us warm all night - very cosy! At night the clouds cleared enough so we could see the stars - so many stars that you never get to see in suburbia! So many things to visit and sight-see you can never get bored with the scenery! A walk along the river will re-energise your batteries and relax your soul. We came home so rested and relaxed and can't wait to go back again.....Thank you Jenny for the perfect break away!

We spent 5 days at Old School Masters Cottage during a very cold spell in May. The cottage was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. It is set in peaceful rural surroundings , just a short drive from Gloucester. Beautifully furnished with an open fire and quality bed linen you will feel spoilt from the moment you walk in. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we' were sorry to leave the property . Highly recommend this property if you are looking for a city escape for a few days .
