Run only on solar power, it is a quiet refuge away from everything, allowing you to be free from all outside distractions. Enjoy amazing views and vistas in all directions at any time of the day.
The Clarence is an Eco-friendly masterpiece of steel, concrete, glass and wood, located in a beautiful north facing parkland overlooking the river. The combination of industrial raw materials combined with nature makes this space something completely unforgettable.

The kitchen is located in the main house and includes all basic amenities including Nespresso coffee machine. As The Clarence is run on solar power there is no oven or stove top, however we do provide a gas cook top. The outdoor dining table seats up to 12 guests with an additional 6 guests at the inside dining table. Relax on the couch in front of the cosy, wood fired heater ----- or lose yourself in a good book.
The large outdoor deck has comfortable seating, allowing you to relax and enjoy the view. With the large solid European oak dining table and a premium barbeque that can also be used as an oven and cooktop, meals are easily prepared and enjoyed in comfort.

Alternatively, you may simply choose to lose yourself in the quietness of your surroundings, listen to the birds, be in awe of the 35m Tall Flooded Gums, the Ironbarks and Tallowoods that adorn the property.

Surrounding Area -
Alice is a small New South Wales rural location within the local government area of Clarence Valley (approximately 715km North of Sydney). Our suggestion if you're flying interstate would be to fly into Ballina and drive to Alice which should take approximately 2 hours by car.
There is a small town, Tabulam, located about 20 minutes from The Clarence which has a convenience store, a pub and a post office.
There are a variety of things to do in the surrounding area. A local favourite is visiting Bald Rock National Park, a 90-minute drive from The Clarence. We also have beautiful neighbours who operate horse trail rides along the river. We would be more than happy to book and organise this for you.
As The Clarence is located in such a rural area, we will not always be there to meet and greet you upon your arrival. However, we will provide you with a detailed list of instructions to remove any confusion and give you peace of mind to fully enjoy your stay.

Why they chose this property
With the mighty Clarence River literally at your doorstep, directly in front of the property, The Clarence is the perfect spot to enjoy fishing, kayaking, standup paddleboarding and swimming.
It is more than easy to simply lose yourself in the quietness of the surrounding bushland and listen to the many birds that call the area home. Be in awe of the 35m tall Flooded Gums, the Ironbarks and Tallowoods that adorn the property.
Depending on how much time you have, there are also a variety of things to do in the surrounding area. A local favourite is visiting Bald Rock National Park, a 90-minute drive from The Clarence or just over a short 20-minute drive North, you will find the quaint village of Tabulam.
We also have beautiful neighbours that operate horse trail rides along the river. We would be more than happy to book and organise this for you during your stay.
Other attractions:
Tooloom Falls - 1 hr 20 minute drive
Bean Creek Falls - 1 hr drive
