Your property in the Central West can reach guests through leading booking platforms, MadeComfy’s direct booking site and our corporate travel network. We manage the listings, pricing and bookings in one place.
Event weekends, food-and-wine trips, family visits and work stays can create different booking patterns across the Central West. We compare ordinary weeks with peak periods, allowing for heating, cooling, changeover costs and the dates you keep for yourself.
The main locations covered in the Central West are outside the general Greater Sydney 180-day non-hosted STRA cap. Confirm the council area and approved use for your exact address. Registration, fire safety, the Code of Conduct and any planning or strata restrictions still apply. Read the NSW STRA planning guidance and confirm property-specific requirements with the council responsible for your Central West address.
How MadeComfy supports your property
We help you plan short stays and suitable medium-term bookings around the rules that apply to your property. Eligibility depends on the address and its approvals.

“Our local team supports you through every step of managing your short-term rental, from preparing your property to looking after each guest.”
Our NSW team starts with your exact address and the practical requirements of looking after a regional home. We confirm cleaning, maintenance and access arrangements, then plan the listing, pricing and guest experience. Your owner dashboard brings together bookings and property updates without treating every Central West town as the same market.
The Central West covers distinct towns and rural settings. Orange, Bathurst, Mudgee and Dubbo should be assessed on their own merits, with local servicing confirmed for the property before onboarding. Explore the local details we consider below.
Orange’s town homes and apartments offer a different base from properties among the surrounding countryside. Guests visiting for food, wine, family or work need an accurate picture of the setting.
We describe driving needs, parking and access, and show heating and cooling clearly. The preparation plan considers practical kitchens, laundry and the home’s suitability for longer visits as well as weekends.
Bathurst properties can serve ordinary town visits as well as event travel. A forecast should distinguish major event dates from the rest of the calendar.
We explain the property’s actual location, vehicle access and sleeping arrangements. Guest limits and house rules remain clear during busier periods, with pricing and minimum stays reviewed against demand and changeover costs.
Mudgee includes town cottages, larger homes and rural properties outside the centre. A home close to cafés offers a different guest experience from a retreat that requires driving.
We clarify arrival routes, heating, outdoor areas and kitchen facilities. Rural access, water systems and service availability are assessed before launch, and accommodation is not presented as an event venue unless separately approved.
Dubbo can suit family travel, work trips and visits to local services. A comfortable and practical home may serve these needs differently from a weekend-focused holiday cottage.
We show cooling, parking, laundry and sleeping layouts accurately. Longer-stay suitability is assessed against the actual facilities and availability, with property care and guest access confirmed for the address.
Properties beyond the main centres need an individual assessment of location, lawful use and service coverage. Rural character does not replace practical information about the stay.
We check how guests arrive, where they park and which areas are private or out of bounds. Owners should identify water, waste, heating and maintenance requirements early so the operating plan reflects the home.

Management fees vary based on service level and property. Your personalised quote explains GST, the one-time onboarding fee and any separate property costs.
The service includes listing optimisation, pricing, guest support and cleaning and maintenance coordination. Review your management inclusions before deciding.
Event weekends, food-and-wine trips, family visits and work stays can create different booking patterns across the Central West. We compare ordinary weeks with peak periods, allowing for heating, cooling, changeover costs and the dates you keep for yourself.
Your personalised rental forecast compares expected income and operating costs with a long-term lease. MadeComfy’s reported 34% average net uplift is a portfolio-wide result for the 12 months preceding September 2026, not a forecast for your property. Individual results vary.
MadeComfy’s NSW team manages your property’s listings, pricing, bookings, 24/7 guest support, cleaning, linen and maintenance coordination. We market your home across leading booking platforms and our corporate travel network. Your owner dashboard keeps bookings, income and property updates in one place, and you can contact our team on 1800 526 133.
We pay your rental earnings monthly by bank transfer to your nominated account. Your owner dashboard brings together bookings, income, financial statements and property updates, with service charges itemised on your statement. You can also compare your property’s performance with the local short-term rental market.
We assess entire residential homes and apartments, with local service coverage confirmed by address. Heating, cooling, internet, access roads and property-care needs matter, especially outside town. Farm stays, cabins and visitor accommodation may fall under different planning rules from residential STRA. We can also discuss furnishing and styling where needed.
Register eligible residential STRA before advertising, meet fire-safety standards and follow the NSW Code of Conduct. Planning conditions and strata by-laws can restrict a property even where the state framework permits STRA. Check your address with the council responsible for your Central West address before listing. See the NSW short-term rental requirements.
The main locations covered in the Central West are outside the general Greater Sydney 180-day non-hosted STRA cap. Confirm the council area and approved use for your exact address.
Being outside that general cap does not remove registration, safety or planning obligations, or guarantee bookings. We assess year-round availability, seasonal demand and suitable longer stays for the individual home.
Yes. You can arrange personal stays through the owner dashboard, subject to existing guest bookings. Tell us about family visits, local events and weekends you want to reserve. Blocking these dates before guests book lets us prepare an income estimate based on the availability you can actually offer.
Yes. We can help you plan the move to MadeComfy, with a handover tailored to your current agreement and upcoming bookings. Before you switch, we’ll confirm the arrangements for your listing, existing reservations and property access, so you know what to expect.
We arrange cleaning, fresh linen and towels, and restocking between guest stays. Regular changeover cleans are covered by the guest cleaning fee. Housekeepers complete MadeComfy’s training and certification program, with photographic reporting and quality checks helping keep your property ready for each arrival.
Our team coordinates repairs with trusted trades and keeps you informed through your owner dashboard. Our support team is available 24/7 for urgent property issues and arranges the appropriate response. Repair approval limits are agreed with you in advance, and repair costs are separate from the management fee.
We use guest ID checks and screening, house rules and property inspections to help protect your home. If damage is identified, we document it, keep you informed and coordinate any required repairs within your agreed approval limits. Any claim depends on the relevant booking-platform or insurance terms, so you should maintain insurance suitable for short-term letting.
We assess your property and its rental potential, then an onboarding specialist guides you through property preparation, photography, listing creation and pricing. You can review and approve your listing before it goes live, with launch timing based on your property’s readiness.
Once bookings begin, our team monitors guest feedback and local demand, refining pricing and your listing as the property becomes established.
