    PLEASE NOTE ** Barachi is located at the rear of our property and is only accessible by 4WD.** If you are a keen hiker or you are fit and adventurous, you are welcome to travel by foot by hiking approximately 1k down hill to Barachi (it's all up hill on the way back :-)). You'll only need to carry your sleeping bags and food as everything else is provided. Please note: Peter is happy to take your gear down and back on the Quad bike - simply select Hikers Assistance when booking. Our rustic little shack is nestled near the creek that flows in the hollow of our 100 acre property. From the moment you arrive you are embraced by the peace and tranquility - lie in the hammock, or dangle your feet in the rapids. You'll feel like you're a million miles from nowhere but minutes from everything; just 40 minutes to Byron Bay and 10 minutes to Lismore, with cute little villages all around such as Dunoon, Eltham, Federal, Bexhill, Clunes and Bangalow - immerse yourself in everything Northern NSW has to offer.**Please note this cabin is at the rear of the property it is 4wd access only!! ** Totally off Grid, this rustic shack is purpose built to take in nature. The Shack was built by Peter and Tania so that they could take their young children down the farm to enjoy the simple things in life. A queen size bed and bunk beds (BYO linen) make this the perfect spot for a family to disconnect from the outside world and reconnect as a family.

    This campsite offers a delightful escape into nature with its rustic cabin setting near a peaceful creek. Visitors frequently highlight the tranquility, the charming presence of roaming cows, and the off-grid experience that allows for relaxation and a break from modern life. While the cabin provides essential comforts, some guests noted it can get stuffy, though the breeze and available fan help mitigate this. Overall, the site is praised for its serene environment and accommodating hosts, making it a favored spot for those looking to unplug and enjoy the outdoors.

    Beautiful escape in a cute cabin!
    Beautiful little getaway in a cute rustic cabin near the creek. We were greeted by roaming friendly cows as we arrived. The cabin is set quite far down the property which makes the property feel very secluded. Peter & Tania have everything you need for your stay to give you a bit of a “glamping” experience. Only thing would be is the cabin can get a bit stuffy but if there is a nice breeze then you’ll be fine, there is also a rechargeable fan inside the cabin, we were able to go for a dip in the creek to cool down too. Highly recommended!!

    Magical little spot, nothing to do here but simply relax and enjoy the bush. I highly recommend this place for a weekend getaway. The host was lovely too :)

    We had the best weekend!
    My dear friend was visiting and wanted to go camping. However, we've had a particularly wet year in the Northern Rivers and this weekend was going to be no exception. But we found something so much better than we could have imagined. It had rained so much that Peter had to drive us down in his all terrain vehicle. We were greeted at the bottom of the hill by the cows, the sound of trickling water in the creek, and the only noise for miles was the sound of two excited, giggling females. The shack is great! It has everything you need when you go completely off grid. The beds are comfortable, and let's face it, anything is better than a blow up. There is nothing like going to sleep to the sound of rain on a tin roof. Even in the mud we managed to sit out by the fire, went for a swim in the creek, we did try to fish but I'm pretty sure they heard us coming. There is a little phone reception, just don't expect to be streaming anything. We had Telstra, Optus and TPG and you just have to find the right spot. They are not kidding when they say you need to be an experienced 4x4 driver. Being two adventurous country girls, we initially thought we could probably trek down when was closed to 4x4; yeah, nah! Don't even think about it. Besides, the buggy is more fun! Don't be put off by this though. Tania and Peter have created a great little get away and we will definitely be coming back!

    This was our 2nd stay and it was just as good as the first! The ability to feel as though you are completely “camping “ without having to pack the tent is awesome, once again Tania and Peter went above and beyond to make our stay stress-free! We will return!!!
