Australia’s First Rest Rebate

Be antisocial. Together.

The Weekend Pause — three nights at Wandarra Homestead, with the third night on us.

A $850 Rest Rebate, applied at checkout.

Stay a little longer. We’ll reward you for it.

More than a third of Australians feel overwhelmed by everyday life. Digital overload and decision fatigue make it harder than ever to properly switch off — and most of us won’t take the time unless there’s a reason to.

So the Mudgee Region is giving you one. Stay a little longer at Wandarra Homestead — be antisocial, together — and we’ll reward you for it. Swap screen time for good times with the people who matter most.

Here’s the thing about rest: it only works if you give it enough time to land. Two nights is barely a weekend — by Sunday lunch you’re already mentally driving home. Three nights changes the rhythm. That’s why the Rest Rebate is built around the third night.

Why three nights changes everything:

Three nights, not two

Two nights is barely a pause — by Sunday lunch you’re already packing up in your head. The third night is where it changes. By the second morning, the to-do list has loosened its grip.

The whole place, just yours

Twenty-five private acres, the homestead to yourselves, no other guests and no shared spaces. Privacy is the part that makes the rest real.

$850 back, no strings

The Rest Rebate comes off at checkout when you apply your Rebate Code. No claim, no form, no fine print — just the third night, on us.

Twenty-five acres of nothing to do

Wandarra sits on twenty-five private acres in the Mudgee wine country — a homestead with a wide verandah, a firepit that earns its keep after dark, and the kind of quiet that lets you hear the wind through the gums. For three nights it’s yours alone. No other guests, no shared spaces, no reception desk. Just space to spread out and slow down.

THE ESSENTIALS
  • Exclusive use — the whole property to your group

  • Sleeps up to 9 — 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms

  • Dog-friendly

  • Grandma’s Tipsy, the private speakeasy

Be antisocial. Together.

There’s a version of a weekend away where you check email on the drive home, scroll from the bath, and answer one quick work question over dinner. This isn’t that weekend.

Three nights. The whole property. No other guests, no shared spaces, no schedule to keep. Just the people you came with, the long view from the verandah, and the kind of quiet that takes a full day to properly arrive.

Get off the group chat. Out of the inbox. Into the company of the people who matter most.


Don’t just take our word for it...

Guests tell us the same thing: they came to get away, and ended up not wanting to leave.

“Highly recommend — a beautiful property about 20 minutes from Mudgee. It has everything you could need for a perfect getaway.”

Elaine M.

“What can I say! This is our second time staying at the beautiful Wandarra. This place is simply magical — we keep coming back.”
