Vale Of Clwydd NSW 2790

Established in 1823, Collits' Inn stands proudly as the first and longest standing architectural marvel of the Blue Mountains region. Originally named 'The Golden Fleece', this historic landmark was meticulously crafted by Pierce Collits, a former convict turned remarkable entrepreneur. Serving as a vital sanctuary along the inaugural road from Sydney to Bathurst, the inn held a significant place in Australian history, offering weary travellers a haven of respite and a taste of familiar comforts amidst their arduous journeys. Following its meticulous restoration, The Golden Fleece has been reborn as Collits' Inn, a distinguished wedding venue paying homage to its visionary founder and rich heritage.

This incredible offering includes a 5 year lease, currently operating as a wedding venue. Still retaining a lot of its original character features, the impressive main residence showcases hardwood floors, wood-lined ceilings and walls, wooden sash windows, three open fireplaces, and has been well-maintained to preserve its historical beauty. There is a 'History Room' which once served as the Hartley Vale post office. Boasting a highly flexible floor plan, with five bedrooms, four bathrooms, formal and in-formal living spaces, and a commercial kitchen, the space is currently used for wedding party accommodation.

A charming cottage, named 'The Stable', originating from its original purpose, is positioned amongst established gardens, allowing for some privacy and division from the rest of the estate. The living room has cathedral ceilings, exposed brick wall, and hardwood floors, with a bedroom located on the ground floor, and an additional bedroom or living space located upstairs on the mezzanine level. The country-style, eat-in kitchen has timber lined walls and French doors that open out onto the covered deck, overlooking the dam and lush grounds.
