The Millet House is a luxury self-contained farmhouse set on the historic property "Melross" in Kangaroo Valley. Situated on 240 acres, Melross is widely considered one of Kangaroo Valley's most beautiful properties. Breathtaking views from the house look out across the hills into the spectacular cliff escarpment that surrounds the entire property.
There are so many ways to enjoy your break at The Millet House on Melross - take long walks around the property and down to the river, wander down the country lane to collect some freshly-laid eggs from the chickens, lounge by the swimming pool and enjoy a fresh Espresso Coffee machine, create a feast on the barbeque and enjoy your meal with a glass of local wine, cuddle up by the open fireplace, or just sit back and watch the animals graze and soak up the stunning views from the verandah. There's nothing better than a home-cooked dinner enjoyed outside on the deck gazing at the perfect valley stars.
However, they choose to spend their time all our guests at Melross say the same thing: we never want to leave!
Only 5 minutes' drive and you are in the charming township of Kangaroo Valley, which features the lively Friendly Inn and a select choice of cafes and restaurants.
