What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Beautiful step back in time surrounded by nature everywhere you look. The property is full of stunning antique furniture that really adds to the charm and character of the stay. Pat has truly thought of everything, making you feel welcome from the moment you arrive — even being greeted by Daisy the doorbell dog! Waking up to the sound of birds in the morning was incredibly peaceful, and the shower pressure was amazing (always a big plus!). Highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a relaxing and unique getaway.”
“Great little guest house under a 10min drive from the main strip in Kangaroo Valley. Hosts were fantastic and very kind! Clean rooms self serve kitchen and BBQ. Rooms are super old fashioned, reminds me of staying at my grandparents house. Lots of wildlife around day and night.”
“Wombatalla was lovely. Pat & Jacinda were lovely hosts. Our greeting by Daisy the dog was just a lovely way to start our time at Wombatalla. The house is presented beautifully, very clean and the rooms were large. Generously appointed with breakfast and snacks. We had a very peaceful stay.”
“Wombatalla Guest House is absolutely charming, and the owners are just as lovely. The location is peaceful and secluded, making it the perfect spot to observe kangaroos and wombats in their natural habitat. We had a wonderful stay and can’t wait to return—highly recommended for a relaxing getaway!”
“Very nice location and owners. Thank you for all the freebie pastries and drinks! Go out at night to see some stars, and wombats if you get lucky. It is a charming old guesthouse - very nice place to stay if you don't need the most modern facilities.”
“Had an awesome time, Pat and Jacinta were lovely and welcoming. Sat by a wood fire in the big lounge and relaxed.loved the old world charm and the new world mod cons. Great amenities the place to go when you need quiet and rest. Thank you we will be back.”
