Welcome to The Stone Cottage at Wollondibby, a unique and romantic alpine retreat where history, nature and modern comfort come together.

Dating back to circa 1855, this beautifully renovated heritage-listed stone cottage has been lovingly restored using traditional building techniques while providing the comforts and conveniences of modern living. Nestled along the scenic Alpine Way, it offers couples the chance to step away from the everyday and enjoy a peaceful escape in the heart of the Snowy Mountains.

Sleeping just two guests, the cottage is designed for cosy weekends and memorable stays. The open-plan interior features a comfortable queen-sized bed, a warm slow combustion fire and thoughtful touches throughout. Floor heating keeps the cottage cosy during the cooler months, while ceiling fans provide comfort in summer.

The kitchenette has everything you need for a relaxed stay, including an induction hotplate, air fryer, convection microwave, pod coffee machine and dishwasher. Whether you're preparing breakfast before a day exploring the mountains or enjoying a quiet dinner together, everything is close at hand.

Winter guests can make use of the drying cupboard to keep ski gear warm and ready for the next day's adventure, while the surrounding alpine region offers plenty of opportunities for skiing, snowboarding, hiking and exploring.

In the warmer months, take advantage of the beautiful countryside surrounding Crackenback Valley. Spend your days exploring the Snowy Mountains, walking through the surrounding landscape or simply enjoying the peace and quiet of the property.

One of the most special aspects of staying at The Stone Cottage is its history. Guests can take a walk back in time and explore historic sites on the property, including the foundations of the old Wollondibby Inn, the historic bathing area, private cemetery and the first woolshed in the area. These remnants offer a fascinating glimpse into the lives of the early settlers, including Mary and James McEvoy.

There is intentionally no TV at The Stone Cottage. Instead, this is a place to slow down, curl up with a good book, enjoy the fire, share a bottle of wine and reconnect with the person you're travelling with.

The property also incorporates a number of sustainability practices, including rainwater collection, recycling facilities, water-efficient taps and showers, towel reuse, insulated walls and ceilings, double-glazed windows and protected green spaces.

Whether you're looking for a romantic weekend away, a peaceful mountain retreat or the chance to experience a little piece of Snowy Mountains history, The Stone Cottage at Wollondibby offers a truly special escape for two.

Sweet little historic cabin!

Chris - 1st July 2026

Incredible location, sweet little historic cabin in the heart of Crackenback! Heated flooring made the stay extra luxurious, and waking up to kangaroo and deer grazing right outside the door was out of a story book. Note to future travellers - the cooking accommodations are limited: kettle, air fryer/toaster oven, single induction cook top, microwave and basic utensils. Bring a barbecue (like we did) or dine out at the local restaurants!

Great experience

Declan O - 9th June 2026

Great cabin, very clean and well maintained. The only issue we had during our stay was we noticed that there was something in the kitchenette area that made a series of beeping noises roughly every half hour. We couldnt figure out what the source if it was however.

Thank you for your review and we’re glad you enjoyed your time at The Stone Cottage. Regarding the beeping, this can sometimes occur when the fridge is quite full and airflow is restricted. We’ll keep an eye on this to ensure everything is working smoothly for future guests. We appreciate you bringing it to our attention and hope to welcome you back again.

Classic mountain cabin with the comfort of boutique hotel.

John - 16th August 2025

Great location to access the ski tube, Thredbo and Jindabyne. Lovely setting with kangaroos hoping outside the front door. Classic mountain cabin with all the comfort of boutique hotel. Near the Alpine way however never felt visually exposed or noisy. Stayed here to access skiing, which worked perfectly, and would love to return for mountain hiking, fishing or romantic get away.

Lovely Little Cottage

Clean and tidy, beautifully heated for a chilly stay in the Snowy Mountains. In high winds the chimney whistles tunefully. Lots of wild life and a few deer came by. The fire was a real treat.

Cosy and Relaxing

Louisa F - 9th January 2025

The stone cottage is exceptional. From the layout, to the furnishings and even the finer details we highly recommend this accomodation. So much thought and care has gone into making our stay comfortable with everything you need. The location is perfect. Close to Kosciuszko National Park for hiking or sightseeing, town and restaurants. It is the perfect getaway to either relax and do nothing or go out and explore the snowy mountains. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable.

A dream comes true (well sort of)

John & - 9th November 2024

We have driven past that old stone cottage cottage on the Thredbo road near Crackenback so many times over the years and always thought how great it would be to live there! We were thrilled to notice that it had been restored and now we have fulfilled part of the dream by staying in it for four really enjoyable days and nights - and we were not disappointed. The Stone Cottage has been beautifully restored and fitted out with everything we needed for a really enjoyable break.

We absolutely loved our three day stay in this beautiful heritage stone house. What a surprise when we stepped inside this tiny picture perfect cottage You can see it has been renovated with love and no expense spared. The finishes are stunning. The timber pitched roof, the fireplace and the lighting creates a wonderful alpine atmosphere. All the modern conveniences make it a joy to stay in. Dishwasher, heated floors and drying cupboard as well as a luxurious bathroom and queen sized bed.
