Rain forest escape

Beautiful location deep in the Nightcap National Park. Plenty of birdlife and walking tracks. The gravel road was a surprise on first run to property however if you want that degree of seclusion it is worth it and we easily navigated it each day, even on a dark rainy night in a sedan. There is plenty to explore in the area. Each night we sat around the firepit listening to the sunset birdsong and star gazing. Appreciated the break from technology and, if needed, there was good reception at the front gate. Stayed seven nights during school holidays, would choose to stay longer outside that period. Well worth a visit, highly recommend.

Serenity

We had an amazing, peaceful stay. The cottage was gorgeous. Sara started the log fire for us prior to our arrival so it was warm and cosy. The grounds were immaculate, such a beautiful view from the deck. I would highly recommend staying here. Just be mindful it’s too far to just pop out to the local shop so bring all the food you need as

Great Location and place to chill out

The setting is beautiful and a great place to really unwind for a few days. The fire and marshmallows are a must and the bird life, amazing. Personally, I would love to see slightly more comfortable furniture so you can relax in the evenings instead of the wooden couch and seats.

What a beautiful property. Excellent attention to detail.

Exceptional attention to detail (including the fresh marmalade and coffee). Beautifully designed and thoughtfully catered for. Did not need a thing. The fire was on upon arrival and I’ve never seen so many stars. The fire pit with beef and Guinness pie was exceptional. The only downside was that the weekend was too short. Will definitely be back. Thank you Fraser and Sara for your thoughtfulness and care.

Byron Hinterland Escape

Just a great escape from Brisbane - only 2 hours away. Limited internet coverage, off the grid. Perfect place to get away from it all for a few days. Lots of great walks nearby and on the property itself. Can understand why it has been recommended.

Relaxing and peaceful

A very special experience. Attention to detail was exceptional which a homely feel. Enjoyed the nature walks and the bird life. The owner greeted us on arrival and had made the fire ready to be enjoyed. On entry we were greeted with flowers on the table and all the comfort delights u would want for a relaxing getaway. Enjoyed the cottage at Night cap ridge and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to escape the busy city life.

More than just a weekend away

Fraser, Sara & Monty have created an awe inspiring retreat. Not only were they accommodating with our booking prior to our arrival, the arrival and our stay over was faultless. The cottage has such a quaint feeling it’s difficult not to fall in love with everything it offers. We enjoyed the little oasis away from our hectic, technology obsessed lives for some much needed respite. We recommend this stay for anyone looking to reset with nature and spend genuine in the company of their loved ones. We certainly intend to return when it’s next available to us.
