EXPLORE THE FARM
The farm is set on 1700 hundred acres and is at the end of the road that backs onto a national park. Guests can go exploring anywhere they wish while staying on the farm. There is a beautiful creek that runs through the farm which makes for a pretty walk. Otherwise there are a number of hills that lead to some amazing views with views back over the blue mountains. Walks through the paddocks are also ideal and you may even come across some kangaroos, wombats and echidnas.
just a few of the residents you will meet on the farm
Alfie
Penelope
Penelope
Alfie was born on one of the coldest days in 2018. Alfie was born on a farm near by. and unfortunately his mum left him in the cold. So Alfie came to the farm when he was only 3 days old and we had to hand raise him. Secretly he thinks he is a dog more than a sheep. Alfie loves meeting new people especially if you have food.
Penelope

What some of our beautiful guests have said about Little Willow
July 2022
We had an incredible stay. Hayley, James and their girls were amazing hosts. Our kids soaked up everything their farm had to offer and we all had a ball. What an incredibly beautiful, relaxing and fun holiday. Thank you

Highly recommend a stay at Hayley's Air BNB. Views are incredible and the place was perfect for our family of 4. This place is amazing and you won’t be disappointed!

Nice clean house, comfortable and quiet. Great for a weekend away relaxing. Kitchen is well set up, the spa is great to soak in for a while. For those wondering about the mobile reception/internet, Telstra has good 4g coverage at the house, Optus doesn't.

This place is truly majestic with the most wonderful views, the house is spotless and has everything you could wish for with a full kitchen which we cocked up some nice winter dishes to eat in front of the log fire. The Hosts were very generous with their time and made our stay very special and memorable. We would definitely like to return for another stay soon

We had a wonderful stay at Little Willow :-) Hayley is a lovely host and made sure we had everything we needed, the fireplace on, feeding time with the animals and even a tour around the whole farm as well. It was a very relaxing weekend in a beautiful location with lots of nature and proper quality time with family/friends. PS. The kitchen has everything you could imagine so if you love to cook this stay is also a perfect opportunity to do so! I would recommend picking up all your groceries at Lithgow / Katoomba / Leura on your way as once you arrive you will want to stay put!

A great place to stay, relax and enjoy. One of the best places we have ever stayed. Great views, good farm experience, great house.

We had a fantastic holiday at Hayley’s farm stay, and would give it six stars if we could. My son loved feeding/ meeting all the animals and collecting the eggs for breakfast. We loved the scenery, the well-appointed house and hot tub under the stars. Hayley and James went above and beyond - having the fire on before we arrived, checking if we needed any groceries from town, and taking time out of their day to show us around, feed the animals and take us on a tour of the farm on their buggy. This was a perfect Airbnb experience, and we look forward to staying again!

Wonderful property and hosts! Highly recommend. Great farm stay for young families, lots to do around the farm for kids. Lots of animals and picturesque scenery. We loved the fireplace, hot tub and feeding the animals! Thanks for an amazing stay Hayley & James!

A beautiful farm stay. We had the perfect little family getaway. Our boys had the best time collecting eggs, feeding the animals and exploring the farm. The house was clean and welcoming with lots of special touches. We will definitely be back!

This was our second time visiting Little willow which says a lot. We always have the best time at the farm! Beautiful place in a picturesque setting, and Hayley and James are so friendly and accommodating with an interactive farm experience being provided. Can't wait to come back with friends or family now that there are two houses on the property.

Hayley's place is so incredible! We would give it 6 stars if we could. We were a group of 5 girls after a weekend away from the city and this place delivered in spades. The place was quiet, the hottub was perfect for enjoying the view. Hayley's a great communicator and can see why this place has such good reviews. We have absolutely no complaints and we are keen to get back here the next time we need a "life recharge" Nellie and the gal's

It has been one of the most wonderful experiences the time we spent at Little Willow farm. This valley at the heart of the Blue Mountains is stunning! Our kids had a blast with the farm animals and get to name most of them. One of Hayley's farm dogs, Coco, was the favorite of our kids. My son was egg hunting every morning. The house is so comfortable with a great set out and top-quality amenities. And the spa in the front yard with that Mountain View!!! Just perfect to wind down from the busy city life I have. Hayley and James were amazing guests and we had a great chat. I can't recommend this place highly enough.

As per other reviews this property is a must- see. The iconic Australian mountain stay - a family owned and managed farm, luxurious extras and tranquility.

Hayley's farm stay was everything you really want from a farm stay. Hayley was welcoming and friendly, the kids were able to feed and interact with the friendly farm animals whenever they wanted, the house was spotless and scenery was beautiful! Thank you so much for creating such a magical place for us to have such a fun and memorable little holiday.

Hayley's farm stay experience exceeded our expectations in many aspects. The house is beautifully furnished with top notch kitchen appliances, Jacuzzi, fireplace. It was perfect. Amazing views all around. The animal feeding and farm tour was so immersive. It felt like Jurassic Park or safari going through each animal area, going up close and personal with all the animals. Hayley also took Hayley made sure we had everything we needed to various vantage points to take in the beauty of the mountain. My family had an amazing time and would recommend it to any family that would like a city escape. Experience farm life in style and luxury!

見渡す限りの大自然に囲まれて過ごす時間は､心からﾘﾗｯｸｽできるものでした。Hayleyはとても親切で､提供される住居は､とても清潔で､ｷｯﾁﾝ用品や基本的な調味料なども用意されていて､我が家のようにくつろげる空間でした。住居は､細かいところまで行き届いており､ﾎｽﾄの細かい気配りがうれしかったです。Animal Feedingや､幼い動物との触れ合いなど､1日中､自然と動物との触れ合いを楽しみました。またぜひ利用したいです。

Our group of five had the most lovely weekend at Little Willow. The house is beautiful, finished to such a high standard and the setting is incredibly picturesque. Hayley was so helpful and informative and encouraged us to explore the farm, meet the animals and organised an afternoon meet and greet where we could feed the lambs and goats. Alfie and Bella the sheep were great characters and even joined us on our walk around the farm. Having a sunset champagne in the hot tub was also a highlight! We had such a fun, relaxing weekend, we will definitely be back! Thanks Hayley and James!

We had a wonderful weekend away. Loved the farm and all the animals. The accommodation is superb - the quality of the house and fittings is top notch and the location is fantastic. Our hosts went over and above to make our weekend extra special, helping with a surprise birthday lunch. A charming location with great hosts. Highly recommended.

Hayley has done an amazing job with the place! Wow! It was absolutely beautiful, the house was sparkling clean, cosy and had the fire burning when we arrived. So many thoughtful touches - they’ve spared no expenses on the amazing amenities! Kids absolutely loved feeding the animals and exploring the property. Love the welcome letter and detail about the property. Comfy beds and heating was spot on for the cold weather. Place was perfect - cannot fault it! Highly recommend for some time to unwind and get offline. Thanks for having us!

I cannot recommend Little Willow farm stay enough! The house itself is so beautiful and of a really high quality including the furniture and fittings. I feel like the house was way nicer than my house in Sydney! It is perfect for a city detox and to experience the stillness of nature and farm life, to see the stars at night whilst relaxing in the hot tub (you have to see the night sky from the farm... it will take your breath away), to breathe in the fresh crisp air, and have a little detox from your phone and social media as well. The house is about 45min to an hour away from Katoomba, blue mountains so bring enough food to make nourishing meals at the house and enjoy them by the fireplace. We will definitely be back - it was just the break away that we needed. Oh and also Hayley, James and their beautiful little Rosie were the perfect hosts, so helpful and kind - they let our kids feed their animals (sheep, lamb, goat) and we even got to pick some freshly laid eggs for brekkie! Lovely for our city children to have this interaction with animals they wouldn’t normally get! Thank you James, Hayley and Rosie - we had a ball xx

Willow vale was the perfect retreat for our girls weekend away. The house had beautiful views and a serene atmosphere. It was very clean with great appliances and a fab bathroom - they’ve really thought of everything. The hosts were very accommodating and made our stay extra special by introducing us to their animals. Definitely recommend staying here, we had a great time. Plus, the minimal phone reception was great.

Perfect hosts on a perfect farm in a perfect location! Get ready for an epic stay. Hayley & James: the loveliest couple who welcomed us with a warm fire, helpful and detailed notes and the opportunity to hang out with the animals. The House: immaculately clean with fluffy towels, comfy beds, a luxury bathroom and a kitchen that has everything you need and more. The hot tub was perfect and the fire kept us toasty as well. The overall experience: our weekend at Little Willow recharged my soul. I will absolutely be going back.

There aren’t enough stars to rate our wonderful experience. We had such an amazing time. Waaay beyond our expectations. The house was immaculate, felt like home. Walked in to find a beautiful birthday sign on the front gate. The welcome note on the dining table was very well written and so welcoming. The beautiful fire kept us warm all night without using any of the central heating. Hayley described everything perfectly. Cannot believe how much time our wonderful hosts made for us when we needed it. But at the same time we were secluded and felt like the only people around. Our children wanted to spend more time with Hayley, James, Rose and the animals than they did with us :-). Thank you for your warm hospitality. The scenery was breath taking. Didn’t feel like we were only a couple of hours away from the city. The children loved waking up to the cows by the fence, picking eggs and feeding the animals. We have definitely added Little Willow farm to our list of annual family gateways. Highly recommend the farm to anyone looking for a quiet, surreal family farm with owners so down to earth, you feel like part of the family. The house is very modern, with thoughtful amenities you don’t normally find in the average home (I’m an architect). They have created an environment that showcases everything nature could offer at your doorstep. Thank you Lots of love Amanda, Andre, Izaac, Ayvah & Zarah Ps: Zarah has decided she would like to adopt Franklin since Ollie can’t be toilet trained :-)

We had a fantastic weekend! The farm location is amazing nestled in its own valley. The house is awesome with fantastic views and a great outdoor hot tub setup. Watching the sunset from here and the stars after dark was a real highlight. Willowvale is such a great location for young kids. The owners Hayley and James are super friendly and provide a kids feed the animals tour. You can also go wherever you like on the property which gives you the opportunity to climb the many hills and access the whole range of views.

One of the best accommodations I've had the pleasure of staying at. Facilities were beyond expectations, and the hospitality of the host was unreal. We’re all still buzzing about how good the weekend was, and what an amazing experience we all had. Other than the warm welcome, their farm and the animals on it really won our hearts. Cannot recommend enough.
