Dalgety, New South Wales
Lachney Cottage is a 3 bedroom (+ upstairs loft) house located in the historic village of Dalgety. The home is 1.5km out of town on the sealed Snowy River Way, and is an easy 4.5hr drive from the south of Sydney on excellent roads. Dalgety is located on the banks of the Snowy River, a 15 minute drive to Berridale, 30 minutes to Jindabyne, less than 60 minutes to the ski resorts of Perisher and Thredbo, and a scenic 90 minute drive to the coast.
The cottage, which is situated on 10 level acres with magnificent views of the snowy mountains, is a peaceful and relaxing home to return to after a hard day on the slopes, avoiding the hustle and bustle of the bigger towns. Watch as kangaroos and the local wildlife go about their business while you're sitting on the veranda sipping a red and soaking in the crisp clean mountain air. Maybe all sitting around the outside fire toasting marshmallows while waiting for the snags to cook, or simply relax and snuggle up in front of the wood heater with a good book. And the star gazing on clear evenings is just stunning.
The village of Dalgety, which has history dating back to the 1800's, has many attractions on offer. Like grabbing a steak and having a drink with the locals at the Buckley Crossing pub, enjoying a cappuccino at Red Dog Roasters, dining at The Gallery, or visiting Dalgety Brewery. And of course there's the Mighty Snowy River where you can take the river walk, do a spot of fishing, canoe or take a dip during the warmer months.
A little further away is the Kosciuszko National Park, which is not only home to the best Ski resorts in Australia, but has many attractions outside the ski season. Bushwalking, mountain biking, fishing, camping, as well as catching the Express chair at Thredbo for the enjoyable walk to the top of Australia...Mt Kosciuszko.
Jindabyne also has many attractions, including Lake Jindabyne for fishing, water skiing, sailing as well as swimming. Enjoy a movie, dine at the many restaurants, do a spot of shopping, take in the nightlife or simply take a picnic on the picturesque lake edge.
Lachney Cottage is ideal for a romantic getaway, or for the family who like a bit of space, peace and quiet and loads of country charm...All year round.

Aside from being in a wonderful location, the house was immaculate upon arrival, with a fire ready to be lit. Perfect after a long drive. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen kitted with everything you would require. The same with the BBQ area. We wanted a relaxing 5 days away, and with the vista from the back veranda, this is exactly what was delivered. The owners were easy to communicate with, prompt and very friendly and helpful. All up, 5 stars. Highly recommended.
We had a great stay. It was so peaceful and quiet and snowfields accessible. Would definitely recommend this property
Property it self is so so comfortable, the views and peace and quite are just the best. Best cottage and so beautifully appointed. Our 3rd stay and cant wait to book again. Our favourite place to stay in the state.
We enjoyed a fabulous family vacation at Lachney Cottage. Brent and Louise were wonderful hosts and went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Communication was excellent, the welcome pack was a lovely, personalised touch and having the fire built and ready to go on arrival was appreciated. The cottage is well equipped, spotless and very tranquil. Dalgety is a pleasant, manageable drive to the ski fields and nice escape from the crowds after a day on the slopes or in the backcountry. Thank you for your hospitality and welcoming us to Lachney Cottage. Highly recommended and would definitely stay again.
We really enjoyed our stay. Lovely location & ambience. All the mod cons, good Wi-Fi, pod coffee, great pub. The indoor is cosy & comfortable. All items needed were supplied including bedding & towels. Outdoor was a really nice touch, including fire pit & a very good, covered BBQ area. A bonus was a roomy garage for the car. Great hosts who prioritise hospitality. We hope to return.
Was a great property, well maintained & very friendly hosts
Just loved our stay at this property! Brent was lovely and helpful and the cottage a delight. Thank you so much for sharing.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The place is absolutely beautiful inside and out! Close enough to Jindabine/Thredbo but far enough to enjoy peaceful scenery! Highly recommend!
Fantastic. Photographer paradise
We loved staying here. Although a bit of a drive from the ski tube (50mins) once we were ‘home’ we felt like we really were at home. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others. We will stay again.
Things were well organised.. pretty happy with the service and the arrangements
Excellent property, very clean , well organised and homely Will definitely try and come back
The location is breathtaking, and just added to a our ski trip experience staying in a small country town with incredible views and local wildlife right on our door step instead of Jindabyne. I highly recommend Dalgety cottage as a location to stay.
A stunning cottage in a beautiful location. All the amentities were clean, tidy and well maintained. Very pleased with our stay. It was warm, comfortable and felt like home. Wish we could have stayed longer!
A great place to stay to get away from the hustle and bustle of life. Arriving on a cold evening to an already lit fireplace was wonderful. You could either stay here and not venture out and have everything you need for a relaxing time or you could use it as a base to go and explore what's around the snowy region area.
