“Nothing beats the sunset from a wood-fired hot tub, in the middle of the countryside!“

Staying at Flash Jack tonight. It’s such a beautiful place and we’re so proud of it. It’s a stylish and comfortable little hotel, the garden is beautiful (thanks to ), it’s quiet with the and it’s only going to get better! We have some plans that are close to becoming a project.
Another one of those amazing images of Kimo Estate. This one is a few years back when we added the hot tubs to all three huts. After having only one it took a long time (like ages) to convince guests that we did have them at all of our three huts. Now commonly known of course but this image was one of the ones that helped us get the word out there.

The Ewes are fattening up getting ready for their little lambs to arrive soon.
Cropping Lines in the dirt waiting for the plants to emerge.
Winter patches of sunlight pierce the clouds on a windy day. Recent rain has the paddocks lush and green in preparation for the spring growing period.
Beautifully lit by candles (yes real candles) is the "Grain Shed". Our stunning wedding shed stuns all those who enter. The old wagon wheels create the perfect chandeliers in this authentic rural setting.
Flash Jacks of Gundagai - Kimo Estate wanted to show you another slice of country life. It's different in town. Whilst you know you're not in the big smoke there is that feeling of the connection with other people. Saying hello to random strangers in the main st and wishing them a nice day just doesn't happen in the city. Everyone is so busy in themselves they lose that connection to all the others buzzing about their lives too. Just a different pace and relaxed country style....
The reason we get a few frosts? Those clear winter sky nights! You've never seen so many stars at .
📷
A fresh frost to start the day. When you step out side of your hut on these mornings you know you're alive before you dart back in to the warmth of the hut. A nice little reminder that humans first interactions with fire 1.2 million years ago was a pretty good breakthrough :)
For those wanting to use the tub in the morning, it's certainly worth the effort.

The Farmhouse breakfast is included with each stay. Fresh Local produce ready for you to cook whenever you want. The breakfast of champions.
The Deluxe Bay Window rooms at Flash Jacks are super nice. This used to be the sitting room in the old house prior to our renovations. The grand bay windows have been converted into daybeds so you can lie in the comfy cushions and curl up with a good book. Simple Elegance and superior comfort at
Daleys cottage is due for a facelift in the Spring, I reckon, we'll paint the outside. What colour scheme you reckon we should go with?
Out on its very own hilltop location, with a little track winding on back, sit's JR's hut. In the winter it gets surrounded by a sea of fog which clears and the warm winter sunshine breaks it up. Leaving a magical view that is ever-changing.
This mild mannered shed
Needless to stay this is the photo that made this crazy idea to put a shelter on a hill in the middle of nowhere. This photo has appeared all over the world including in Vogue, Harpers bizarre, billboards in the US, it has also seen itself on the instagram feed of Airbnb when they were really gaining ground. It is the photo that I see all the time in posts from Russia, Turkey, The UK, The US and everywhere in between. Taken by Hillary Bradford circa 2017. It's still a great photo and always reminds me of what can be possible when you choose to do something and do it well....
Enjoy the peace and quiet in the hills of Kimo Estate as you take a walk and see no signs of any other people in sight.
The 1908 Shearing Shed is still in use today at Kimo Estate
The woolshed at Kimo Estate was built in 1908 and has seen its fair share over the last 116 years. Hopefully she'll see out a few more as this is the only wool shed we have got.

Most mornings at this time of year you awake in our huts to this symphony of nature. The fog which forms over the river flats gets warmed by the sun to create a moving landscape. Terrific time-lapse from our guest @ashleypeterjames #kimoestate #kimoecohuts #canberra #sydney #visitnsw #getaway #fergoshut #roomwithaview #cabin
July is the month that our new calves and lambs drop into the paddocks. Over the next 6-7 weeks we will have 6000-7000 lambs and a few hundred Calves extra floating about the place. We have some great walks mapped out for guests to explore Kimo. Remember the rules 1. Leave gates how you found them and 2. Leave the animals be (you don’t want to get between a mother and her baby). #cows #calves #farmlife #farmstay #cottage #ontheroadtogundagai #wagga #sydney #canberra #travelgram #nsw #farmstays #cottagelife #travelphotography #nature #travelaustralia #getoutoftown #tourismnsw #airbnb #holiday #smallhotels #travelaustralia #travelphotography #travelgram

People think the country is quiet…👇🏻 These blokes, it seems didn’t get the memo. They skwark every evening in their short migration home every evening and morning. From the huts they take off from their river flats trees and head up the valley. They cause bedlam everywhere they go. They have a rest at lunchtime and away they go again in the evening. They are like your crazy ccousins you see once a year except they’re here every day! #cockatoos #visitnsw #visitnsw

“Shedding Sheep” at Kimo because the rain was coming. The wool must be dry when shearing so when the weather looks like it’s not on your side we pop the sheep in the shed. Good thing we did too because 15mm of rain came and we would have lost a day shearing. #shearing #visitnsw #sheep #farmlife
The two sides of Kimo Estate 👉🏻Kimo Is Peaceful 👉🏻Kimo is busy … While you relax on our farm, during the day the farm is a busy place. Now it’s a big farm so that activity is spread over a large area. Sometimes you’re in it, with sheep all around you, sometimes you’re not, and there’s nothing but the distant sounds of the animals. Each visit to kimo is unique and Each Season at Kimo is different so if you’ve been before you can come again and see a different side. #kimoestate #farmstay #farmlife #australia #visitnsw
