B&B Accommodation Rye Park NSW Country Retreat Accommodation Yass

The Old School Bed and Breakfast in Rye Park near Yass in the ACT was built in 1876 and used as a school until 1974. One can still find ink on the floorboards of the schoolroom, but the room has lost the schoolhouse chill. The School has been extended and renovated and now resembles a rambling country accommodation house, where guests relax on down sofas and are warmed by generous fires. An antique church organ displaying mouse-proof pedals sits majestically in the sitting room. The industrious find bubblers in the laundry. The Old School Bed and Breakfast is rustic country retreat, interesting and delightful. Surrounded by three and a half acres of gardens, ponds, courtyards and sunny areas it creates an atmosphere that encourages relaxation. The garden is especially beautiful during spring when fruit blossom and old-fashioned roses abound. Rye Park is three and a half hours south of Sydney, an hour and a quarter from Canberra ACT, seven hours from Melbourne and half an hour north of Yass in NSW.
