NEW Luxe Farm Stay with Animals, Firepit, Fresh Eggs & Beach near Terrigal

Welcome to The Spotty Dog at Ferncroft — a brand new luxe farm cottage on private acreage in the Matcham/Holgate valley, near Terrigal on the Central Coast.

Designed for slow country mornings, fresh farm eggs, fire-pit nights and peaceful off-grid unwinding, this boutique rural retreat offers the charm of a farm stay with the comfort of a premium hotel-style cottage. Guests can enjoy beautiful countryside views, goats, geese, chickens, fresh air, luxury linen, a brand new bathroom, country-luxe interiors and space to properly switch off.

The cottage is ideal for couples, friends, small families, girls’ weekends, romantic getaways, wellness breaks and weekend escapes from Sydney. Inside, you will find two comfortable bedrooms, a stylish living area, a brand new off-grid kitchenette, relaxed dining space, books, board games, quality towels and thoughtful touches throughout.

Wake to birdsong, enjoy coffee in the sunny kitchen, request fresh farm eggs, meet the animals, play tennis or pickleball, then finish the day around the fire pit under the stars. This is a peaceful countryside escape for guests who want nature, privacy and calm without giving up comfort.

Set on private acreage, The Spotty Dog feels tucked away and tranquil, yet is only minutes from Terrigal beaches, Erina, local cafés, restaurants, coastal walks and the best of the Central Coast. It is a unique country escape near the beach — perfect for an off-grid retreat, winter getaway, family farm stay or luxury rural weekend away.

This is a calm, off-grid property designed for unplugging, unwinding and respecting the animals, land and peaceful surrounds. No parties or loud noise. Guests are welcome to enjoy the farm atmosphere, fresh eggs on request, fire pit, outdoor areas and the quiet beauty of Ferncroft.
