Delightful Cottage. Very restful, peaceful ambiance. Loved the wrens and robin flitting among the bushes on the back patio.
Thank you Jenny


Enjoyed reading the 60's & 70's mags and recalling the fashions. Friendly chickens from next door came to visit. Very relaxing.

We had a wonderful relaxing stay - the cottage is lovely and the bird life amazing, we had a visit from the kangaroos and an echidna at the bottom of the garden and so many butterflies.
A great weekend, wish we had booked for longer. We will return.

Lovely house which was well set up for a lovely restful break away. The combustion stove was set ready to light, wonderful kitchen, well stocked bathroom and surprisingly very quiet given its location. We'd definitely return for another stay.

Cute cottage well supplied with little essentials like tissues, and pantry items that are so easily forgotten as well as all the usuals like sheets and towels. A little closer to the road than I expected and it was quiet and peaceful out of business hours.

Nice break in the Valley
Hampden cottage is on the Bowral side of the bridge and a 15-20 minute walk to the shopping area and cafes. We enjoyed the location and as it rained one day and was cooler had a lazy afternoon with the log fire glowing. Jenny the host also runs the kayak store next door so on Monday we hired a kayak and met them at Benalla for a liesurely morning in Lake Yerrunga. Went out to the Thai restaurant and the Indian restaurant for dinners both were very good and also had lunch at The General store which again was very nice. Went for a hike on the Three Trails walk which was spectacular when you look over the Shoalhaven river. A nice weekend break.

Hampden Cottage
Hampden Cottage was everything we had hoped for our stay. Jenny has put a lot of consideration into the decor. It was comfortable and the kitchen, bathroom and laundry were very well equipped. The beds were clean and so cosy. We had our whole family staying near by at another property and we used the cottage to meet at and walk to the river which was only a couple of minutes away. The gardens surrounding the cottage has wonderful little places to relax and have a cuppa. We would definitely recommend Hampden Cottage to anyone looking to stay at Kangaroo Valley. Can't wait to return sometime in the near future.

The perfect, little cottage.
We loved our stay her so much. The cottage is so well preserved and still maintains its heritage decor. Wifi, TV, a lot of supplies provided like tea, coffee etc. Spa bath was so nice. Beds were super comfy. The outside was just beautiful. Massive backyard of greenery. Kids loved running around. Parking right in front of the house was super convenient. The town was a nice experience. I highly recommended staying here and we will definitely return.

Beautiful and Relaxing
The cottage has retained much of the original fixtures and has all the modern additions. It was like stepping back in time when I walked through the front door. My son had never turned on a light with a cord which was quite funny. The cottage is spacious, clean and very cosy. The main bedroom is absolutely gorgeous and looks out into the huge backyard which is great for kids. There's a creek at the bottom of the garden too. It was wonderful to sit in front of the fire and just chill with a glass of wine, in peace. I would highly recommend this place for its location and beauty, a great cottage to unwind and relax in. Jenny, our host was so friendly and welcoming, providing history of the cottage and making sure we were settled in.
