Monthly Rentals in O'Connell

The Convent is a charming four bedroom two bathroom home. The outdoor space is stunning and we saw wild kangaroos roaming around each morning. Indoor fireplace keeps you warm and there is also a/c. The backyard balcony is very pretty with plenty of seats and a bench style table there is also a small barbecue. The gravesite at the back of the property is interesting and well worth a visit. The main bathroom has a very leaky bath shower set up which floods the floor app this bathroom is due for an upgrade sometime this year. There is an outdoor fire pit. The lounge room is very spacious with three comfortable lounges. There was a great supply of items in the pantry and also in the refrigerator Some toiletries were provided. The host was very responsive with communication and assistance as required. There is plenty of parking alongside the property. There is a pub just a few minutes up the road and also a coffee shop across the road. We really enjoyed our stay at the Convent.

This is a beautifully rustic little place where you can just sit and relax. We travelled with 4 adults and a toddler and it was a lovely little getaway, and a short drive to some great attractions.

This property in O’Connell was such a peaceful escape! It feels like you’re tucked away on a deserted farm, surrounded by beautiful open space, yet it’s still just a 15-minute drive to both Bathurst and Oberon. The house is older in style but was very clean and had everything we needed. The views over the valley were absolutely stunning — so calm and relaxing. We especially loved spending time in the sunroom, soaking up the morning sun with a coffee. A perfect spot to unwind and reconnect with nature!

We really enjoyed our time at Conmurra Wildlife Sanctuary. The location is quiet and surrounded by nature, which made for a relaxing stay. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed. One of the highlights was being able to see and learn about the wildlife on the property — a unique experience that felt personal and respectful of the animals. Joel and Andrea were friendly and helpful, and it’s clear they care deeply about what they do. If you're looking for a quiet getaway with a bit of a difference, this is a lovely place to stay. We left feeling relaxed, rejuvenated and glad we chose somewhere so unique. We’ll be back!
