Hide and Seek Estate, Kangaroo Valley - 4pm check out Sundays and Public Holidays, except Summer Season
Hide and Seek invites is a country property that offers you peace and calm the minute you drive through the front gates. The estate combines the main Hide and Seek home, which dates back to 1918 and sleeps 6, and the beautiful Nido - a small barn to the rear of the home that can sleep 2 guests with their own private bathroom. Both buildings have been lovingly and expertly restored and modernised. Outside, the inground swimming pool, a hot tub heated by a log fire and generous entertaining space all contribute to resort style experience.
Strictly no parties at this property - please. You will be evicted if this rule is broken.
Where will I be?
Hide and Seek Estate is located in the Upper Kangaroo River area of Kangaroo Valley, in a beautiful secluded location. The house overlooks the stunning, rugged escarpments of Kangaroo Valley and it is only 10 minutes drive to the centre of the village and close to several wedding venues.
Why choose Hide and Seek?
Voted as one of the best renovations in Home Design magazine, Hide and Seek Estate retains original features such as the high ceilings and cornices, but offers all the modern amenities and luxury furnishings for a comfortable stay. Nido uses recycled materials so you feel a connection between indoors and outdoors.

Reviews
Perfect!
Gemma - 5th January 2024I recently stayed at Hide and Seek in Kangaroo Valley. Two families and a grandparent with plenty of room for everyone! Such a beautiful house with plenty of space and perfect for anyone looking for the ultimate privacy and relaxation. The kids especially loved the beautiful pool and collecting fresh eggs from the chickens every morning for our breakfast. Perfect location, close to Kangaroo Valley shops, pubs and cafes. We would definitely go back and highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing weekend away.
We'll be back without hesitation!'
Trudy - 30th September 2023'Our stay at Hide & Seek was above all expectations! From the stunning location of Kangaroo Valley, fresh farm eggs we were able to help ourselves to, pool and hot tub, to the luxury home, we couldn't recommend it more! The location is close to the gorgeous town of Berry and Jervis Bay for beach trips. Cecilia is a wonderful host & made our stay so enjoyable and easy. Thank you!
A Home Away From Home
Carolina - 21st April 2023I have stayed in Hide and Seek a few times. Yes! After the first time I just wanted to go back and back again. One time I stayed with my family and a couple of times with my friends. We loved every stay. The house, the garden, the pool and the small house are beautifully and functionally designed. It is super comfortable, spacious and perfectly set up to spend time with others by the pool, the BBQ area, the living room, the kitchen, the dinning area or the garden. If you are looking for relaxation, this is also the place. The house and its surroundings are very peaceful and well distributed so you can have “me time” if needed. The attention to detail in every part of Hide and Seek shows how much care has gone into making this place a home away from home.
