About this property
Beautiful Country Home. 5 min to Armidale, 10 min to University of New England.
This spacious newly built home is five minutes from Armidale but feels a world away. It is nestled in bushland on a large block frequented by kangaroos and is completely private. 'Summit House' makes a great base for excursions into the four national parks in the local area, plus the city of Armidale. The house can be rented as a two-bedroom or four-bedroom stay. Visit our friendly donkeys. Bring your animals too! Outside dogs are welcome, as are horses, but check with us first.

This house is just gorgeous! So spacious and beautifully appointed. I stayed with family members including children and the layout allowed us to have different activities going on with ease. This is one of the loveliest places I've rented.
Summit House is a lovely house. It is in a fabulous location with beautiful bushland, kangaroos visiting and happy birds. The house was spotless and very well appointed. Some supplies were a bit light on considering we were a group. A couple of our group unfortunately arrived 2 hours early. The host was on to it immediately. He alerted me, I called my friends who realised their wrong and vacated again immediately. The ensuing communication left a lot to be desired. We were expected to then change our check out time to 8am from 10am citing something about a fridge repairman! There are always two sides to a story. Perhaps there had been really difficult customers at other times but I felt the response was over the top and not very hospitable or welcoming.
