Life's stresses are forgotten when arriving at The Tops. Divine food, cabin with spa & log fire, breathtaking rainforest, one of the most memorable & relaxing weekends for ages. The staff are welcoming. The restaurant had log fire, pool table & comfy sofas - perfect to lounge on while enjoying a glass of organic wine.
We'll definitely be back to experience all the other activities on offer - especially bushwalking & touring the farm.

Locality

Adjacent to the World Heritage Barrington Tops National Park and 40kms from Gloucester this is a place for rare birds and other wildlife. You may see koalas and brumbies; wedge tail eagles soar overhead while frogs and platypus are found in the pristine rivers. We supply a fishing rod, dig your own worms and enjoy the relaxation of waiting for the fish to bite!

The cottages have two bedrooms - queen sized beds, and two fold down sofa beds to accommodate up to 8 people. Some have two bathrooms, all have spa baths. Recently renovated with new kitchens installed. The balconies overlook creeks so while sitting quietly as the sun goes down it is possible to watch the wildlife come out to play.
The secluded loft cabins for romantic getaways overlook rainforest. King spa bath, polished wooden floors, loft bedroom make this an ideal way to spend quality time together in peace and harmony with nature. In the comfy lounge area, the sofa can pull out to accommodate another couple. Newly installed to the loft cabins are aged red gum kitchens.
The organic restaurant uses produce from the garden, purchases are made from local growers as necessary. The restaurant is open for breakfast 7 days and for dinner Tuesday to Saturday, all dietary requirements are catered for.
We have certified organic wines and Australia’s first sparking chardonnay for that special occasion, Cooper's Real Ales of course.
