This was our second stay at Bundera Lodge and again it did not disappoint! Such a peaceful relaxing environment with all the things you need for a lovely stay. The coffee machine is wonderful and we lived our Bundera Lodge Coffee cups. Thank you Tim I hope to be back again one day 😊
Great spot to relax and enjoy the bush. Everything you need provided for a great break away. Hot tub and outside deck was fantastic and internet available was a first after many stays at country cabins. Highly recommended.
We had a great weekend away.
Lovely secluded property, easy to check in.
Late checkout was so great, extending our weekend!
Spa was fabulous. Just bring food and there’s no need to go anywhere else! We will be back!
We had the most perfect stay here for my partners birthday. The property is exactly as described, a cute cozy cabin type house
- everything you need is provided. Tim was really responsive and helpful. Would recommend!
Lovely quiet place to relax and also adventures await
The property was very comfortable and a great place for peace and quiet with views out over the valley. When you want to get out and about you have plenty within a short drive, Paterson for lunch, Vacy for a lovely coffee and afternoon tea, Morpeth and Dungog for a bit of shopping and great pubs. And of course the hunter wineries aren’t far away

In general this is a fantastic property for families and a great escape. There are a few maintenance issues around the property that I noticed a little more on the second visit.
It doesnt get any better than this so close to Sydney. Big thanks to Tim.

Good location but definitely way to expensive considering the size of the house . Bedroom are small
Ans does not allow any privacy.
Overall good experience
My husband and I loved staying at Tim’s Bundera Lodge. Being up in the mountains with that amazing view, a glass of wine in the spa and all the necessities you could ever need provided made for a beautiful and much needed relaxing long weekend away. And the late checkout was bliss as there was no pressure to rush leaving.
Thank you for allowing us into your home. We will definitely be telling all our friends about Bundera Lodge
Property was cosy and clean, with tea, coffee, milk and sugar provided and shampoo/ conditioner, body wash and soap samples too.
View was stunning, with animals visiting. Spa was glorious and we had our dog and 6mo baby which was great.
Foxtel, wifi, books, dvds, CDs provided and heaps of outdoorsy games for when weather is nice.
Recommend to get away as it’s very private and a short drive to amenities in Vacy and Paterson, we will be back!
It was a truely incredible getaway at Bundera Lodge. Sunrise spas, adventures throughout Eaglereach, fires, reading in the hammock and peaceful isolation.
You can tell that the owners really care about their property and your experience.
This cabin is perfectly set up for families, so next time we will bring our daughter as well.
Great communication from Tim, the owner. The cabin had everything we needed and we felt comfortable and at home. We enjoyed our stay so much we will book again and bring our son along next time. The bushland surrounding the property is beautiful and resort facilities perfect.
Bundera Lodge was just perfect for our get away. The hot tub was wonderful and we enjoyed the Rainforest walk. We won’t hesitate to recommend and hope to stay again
We really enjoyed our 3 nights at the lodge. Place is exactly as described. At 1st we thought the weather would keep us inside but it turned out otherwise.
The property manager is a really nice guy.
Internet - don't expect it to be the same as your house. Plus don't be unrealistic about it. I've been in IT for over 25 years and it was good enough for me to be able to study via normal web. Videos will take longer than usual to buffer.
But I suggest, lock your mobiles and all other devices away and enjoy nature and the stars on a clear night!!
The views from Bundera were amazing and the house had a selection of everyday essentials to cook with, even some doggy treats for our four legged babies. Any questions we had were promptly answered and we even got given some lovely gifts by the owners to remind us of our stay. The only negative was that there is a bridge out on route that meant a very bumpy, muddy detour…. something we could have done without during wet weather. Otherwise, a wonderful weekend….
Such a spectacular view. The spa on the deck was a great way to spend an evening. So grateful for Tim heating the spa before we arrived and walking us through the operation.
Such a lovely place to unwind, hoping to come back again.
