With three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and an enviable location right at Smiggins Holes in Perisher Valley, Numbananga Lodge is one of our favourite snow escapes.

6. The Edmond, Kangaroo Valley

The Edmond Robertson
The smallest winter cabin on our list, the Edmond, is perhaps the cosiest of them all.


Measuring just 15 metres square, The Edmond in Kangaroo Valley is set on 100 acres, has no phone reception, and is powered by gas bottles and solar power, meaning you have no choice but to relax, unplug, and enjoy a weekend of off-the-grid peace, quiet, and cuddling.

Located two hours from the city, the Edmond is nestled in the Southern Highlands, close to waterfalls, bush trails, swimming holes and a golf course.

This cosy cabin can fit two adults and two small children, but it would be a tight squeeze!

A weekend at Billabong Moon will have you exploring wineries by day and building a cosy log fire by night before taking a long soak in the tub… perfection.

Location: 393 Hermitage Rd, Pokolbin
