Cobden & Wills
Property Description
Step back in time with all the comforts of today at Cobden & Wills, a beautifully restored 1890s farmhouse nestled right in the heart of Bright. Once an orchard home, this spacious retreat blends historic character pressed metal ceilings, original timber floors, and Victorian-style verandas with modern luxuries for a stay that’s equal parts charm and comfort.
With open plan living, generous indoor and outdoor dining options, a wood fire, and stylish furnishings including a leather lounge suite and chaise longue, Cobden & Wills comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests across 4 flexible bedrooms.
The fully equipped kitchen is a delight for home chefs, with gas cooking, a large fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and filtered water on tap. Step out onto the deck for al fresco dining with stunning views over the town centre and surrounding hills.
The private backyard is fully fenced and perfect for families, featuring lawn space, shady seating areas, and a huge outdoor table for 10. It’s also a dream for cyclists, with a dedicated, lockable bike shed and workshop.
