Built in 2004, each tastefully furnished, self-contained cottage, (one catering for disabled guests), is spread out over 20 acres of garden, creek & bush surrounds, ensuring privacy.

There are 2 dams & short bush walks through rainforest & bush. Enjoy rambling gardens, birdlife, picnic BBQ areas, walk to the licensed General Store or visit the nearby attractions of Brunswick Heads, Byron Bay, Bangalow, Billinudgel, Ocean Shores, Mullumbimby, Murwillumbah, Burringbar & Mooball.

Weekend markets are always somewhere close, & spectacular Wooyung Beach, with views from Byron Bay to Tweed Heads, is 7 minutes away.

Guests have access to a comprehensive DVD library as well as reference books on gardening, bush tucker & birdlife.

Quality eateries abound – choose fish’n’chips or award-winning restaurants. Neighbouring “waterholes” & festivals, like the Blues & Roots, Splendour in the Grass, Brunswick Fish’n’Chips Festival, provide entertainment in an area that boasts unsurpassed beauty & natural wonders.
Looking over the beautiful vista, Alan and I are quite staggered... quite visionary... a really attractive and peaceful retreat. The whole place seems to be environmentally unobtrusive (Carol Best, March 2005, NZ). You have a beautiful place here! We've had a great time. (Sinead Fahey, Ireland, Jan 2006)

Property
Photographers, writers & artists are certain to find inspiration in this magical valley.

Guests on their walks through the undulating property might be lucky to see platypus sunning, get wooed by a wonga pigeon or watch echidna foraging.

There are endless nights when you imagine you can pick stars from the sky. The brilliant colours at twilight are accompanied by families of wild ducks flying to the dams, bush pigeons scratching for food & kookaburras & galahs winging their way to roost.

Depending on the season, guests can help themselves to plums, citrus, lychees, persimmons, mulberries, strawberry guavas, mangoes, macadamias, lilly pilly berries as well as vegies & herbs from the small but bountiful herb garden.

The six cottages are set in 20 acres of bushland with a creek meandering through many beautiful garden areas with picnic & BBQ spots.

Each cottage is positioned for privacy & the best aspect for views & weather conditions. It is an idyllic setting for small weddings & special occasions.

The cottages are approximately 2.74 kms down Crabbes Creek Road on the right. Call in at Reception, adjacent to the low set cream house with a cement driveway. A gate code is needed to access the property.
