Quiet retreat into mountains

Peaceful and secluded, take your food with you! Very comfortable. Lovely pool which we didn’t use due to the storm! Fantastic views and opportunity to relax and visit national parks including walking in the rain forest!

A beautiful country retreat nestled in the Coffs hinterland.Secluded and the serenity is incredible if you just want to escape life's pressures.The hosts are lovely people and are there if needed but stay hidden otherwise to give you privacy.A lot of thought has gone into making the cabins an individual themed experience.

There was no-one at the property to let me into my cabin (6:00pm). All attempts to contact the hotel were futile so I had to leave and find alternative accommodation. It took them nearly 24 hours at acknowledge the problem. For a business that is in the service department, there was none. Steer well clear of this amateurish set up.

Stunning property and views, beautifully appointed and clean cabins. Highlight was wood fire pizza, open fire and the peace! The new owners were welcoming, easy going and have really gone into this business with a warm heart and giving attitude. All the very best Paul and Diane!
