The Yurt @ Lothlorien

2
1
1

Within two hours scenic drive from Sydney or Canberra is Lothlorien, a secluded five acre property, nestling below the Black Ash Nature Reserve high on Berry Mountain. Lothlorien lies halfway between Berry and Kangaroo Valley, a scenic ten minute drive in either direction.
The self-contained timber Yurt offers an unpretentious and cosy hideaway for two. It is separate from the main house and set in an old orchard tucked into the edge of the rainforest. Short walks offer exhilarating views of the scenic Wattamolla Valley and dramatic escarpments edging the Budderoo National Park.
Wombats, Echidnas, Possums and Sugar Gliders are regulars at Lothlorien. A short morning walk often averages between twenty to thirty species of birds, depending on the season. Over 200 species have been recorded within a 25 kilometre radius.
Within a ten minute drive, are the antiques, arts and crafts of Berry and Kangaroo Valley. Within twenty minutes are the Shoalhaven River, the beautiful Seven Mile Beach and several notable wineries. Barren Grounds Nature Reserve and other National Parks are thirty to forty minutes away.

We loved our stay

Isaac - 7th September 2025

We loved our stay at the yurt. We were welcomed by an unexpected host who flew swiftly around the room before vacating the property. We soon met our wombat friend who visited us late at night and even knocked on the door a few times. We enjoyed the calming sounds of nature as a way to disconnect from city life. Thank you for having us on our one year anniversary.

Such a lovely and cozy place to stay

Li-Chun - 22nd August 2025

We were so worried that the miserable weather outside was going to ruin our experience here, but it actually ended up enhancing it. We rugged up and enjoyed the sounds of wind and rainfall, thankful for the tranquility. Wombats, cows, kangaroos and birds kept us company and we even managed to spot a bit of blue sky in the morning. This was such a lovely and cozy place to stay. Thank you for having us.

We will be back soon!

Mousania - 9th June 2025

We will be missing the yurt, but not going too far. We will be back soon! Seems like we've found a shelter to put away the busy life and busy mind, and just enjoy the nature.

A magic place

Maria - 22nd March 2025

I have spent a beautiful week in the yurt. Tuning into the sounds of the wind, enjoying the rain, sunbathing on the grass, working from the deck, sharing the space with wombats, possums and so many beautiful birds. I will be missing this place when I go back to busy life, but now I will have this precious memory and whenever I will be feeling stressed or overloaded - all I will have to do is close my eyes and I will be back in this magic place. Thank you for having me.

Really, really love this place

Prashant - 3rd January 2025

Thank you for your amazing hospitality. We enjoy a lot and got to spend our time in this peace environment. It reminds me of my hometown where we used to have houses similar to this with greenery. We came here to celebrate birthday and our short holiday and want to spend it far away from city and crowds of people. No regrets choosing this place. It's awesome and we will be back again. I love the view and peaceful environment of this place. Feel inner peace when we wake up with the singing of birds and insects. Really, really love this place. Thank you.

The perfect getaway spot

Julienne - 13th October 2024

Today is our first anniversary and this has been the most amazing little getaway! On our first day here, we were greeted with the cutest little wombat friend right outside our window! He was very cute scratching his bum on the tree, lol! The Yurt is the perfect getaway spot, so cozy and quaint, ambience 10/10. It was absolutely perfect for our first trip away alone together. A massive thank you to the hospitality of the host.

Wombats, lyrebirds, bellbirds

Aline - 7th October 2024

This was our first trip away together, where we connected even more because of this place. We saw two wombats, heard lyrebirds and bellbirds when we woke up. We disconnected from the internet and played games, then realised when we left that the password was there all along...HA HA!

We loved the Yurt

Sean - 3rd May 2024

A little slice of paradise! We loved our stay here. Quaint, peaceful, tranquil. It was perfect. It’s a shared property but you won’t be disturbed by your neighbors. A perfect place to digitally detox.

Absolutely amazing

Cedrick - 14th April 2023

Warm, wooden little gem. Hidden within the mountains. This is our 5 days getaway for over 5 years celebrating each other. Cozy nights and the brilliant light of day. We couldn't of been any happier with our stay at the yurt. Calm are the sounds of the birds and insects. Surrounded by such beauty in nature. Fresh mounatin air every time we took a breath together. Conversations of our time here will never cease. Absolutely amazing. Would love to return again some day.
