Extra spacious

Guests love this home’s spaciousness for a comfortable stay.
Your accommodation is a 2-bedroom upstairs apartment in a recently renovated 1920s building. We're at the quieter end of the main street of Kandos: a small, friendly town just over 3 hours from Sydney. The apartment has views over town and to the mountains beyond. 300m down the road is an excellent supermarket and bottle shop. There are many pleasant walks nearby and we're close to Rylstone's cellar doors and Wollemi National Park.

The space
The space is generous and celebrates the character of the old building, while being completely refurbished. The kitchen is well-equipped for making your own meals, and there is a dining table. You will have the whole upstairs apartment to yourself.
There are 2 bedrooms, each has a queen-sized bed. Each bedroom has its own bathroom.

Guest access
Guests are welcome to use the back garden and help themselves to any fruit and vegies.

Other things to note
The front door is on the main street, and the apartment up one flight of stairs. For this reason, the apartment is not suitable for toddlers, young children or pets.
There isn't a TV, but there is wifi and there are plenty of books and puzzles.
The bathrooms each have a shower; there is no bathtub. Also, the apartment has a fridge but no freezer.
Kandos has a similar climate to Canberra: summer days can be very hot but Kandos generally cools down overnight. Autumn and spring are delightful, with cooler mornings and warm afternoons, perfect weather for walking. Winter is chilly but our sunny apartment has double-glazed windows, reverse-cycle heating/air-conditioning, oil heaters in the bedrooms, and the beds have electric blankets. The bathrooms are not heated.
We can offer you secure bike storage downstairs.

Neighborhood highlights

Our apartment is an ideal base for exploring the Kandos-Rylstone region. If you will be eating out, we recommend Santo's Pizza & Pasta at the Railway Hotel (open Thursday to Sunday) or the Kandos Hotel dining room (a 5-minute walk up the street, open 7 days midday to 9pm). There are other eating options 10 mins drive away in Rylstone.
During the day, we highly recommend a visit to Kandos Museum, a short walk along Angus Avenue then up Jaques Street to the former Spanish-mission style church (open Wednesday to Sunday 10 to 4). On the way you'll walk past Wayout Artspace, the home of Cementa: our biennial contemporary arts festival.
Two favourite things to do are: walking up Mount Combemelong (a.k.a Coomber Melon) to take in the view, and, in the main street, browsing for second-hand treasures at the Community Charity Shop.
Henbury, our 18-hole golf course, is popular with experienced players who like an interesting green, and a great place for a morning walk (mountain views and kangaroos). Over the road from the golf course is Kandos Pool (divine and 50m, open October to March).
For lunch you could book for yum cha in Rylstone at 29NINE99, or Naked Lady Wines, between Rylstone and Kandos. We also recommend booking a wine tasting at both of our excellent local cellar doors ... see our AirBnB Guidebook for details.
