Beautiful property in a spectacular location

Our 10 night stay at Thamarra cottage was simply wonderful. We love views and the mountains took our breathe away. The cottage had everything we needed and the peace and quiet made for a relaxing holiday. We ate well at Bellingen and strongly recommend Hyde Cafe for coffee (and their cinnamon scrolls!) We played golf at many courses, we hiked the rainforests, we paddled the rivers. All within an easy drive. Lisa is very friendly and helpful, so everything was just perfect.

A beautiful and peaceful place to stay

The cottage is located in a peaceful rural setting near to Bellingen. On arrival, I received a friendly and warm welcome. My little dog was also welcomed. The refurbished cottage was comfortable and well equipped. Generous breakfast supplies were left in the fridge. I ate most of my meals outside on a veranda which overlooked the Dorrigo escarpment. Views were spectacular. Wildlife was plentiful with wallabies and many birds to be seen. The cottage even had resident green frog which lived behind the washing machine in the laundry.

Beautiful pet friendly country paradise

What a perfect property to take time away from a busy life! Hank, my handsome hound, loved exploring the gardens and waterways. The cottage is gorgeous and the owner's attention to detail is evident throughout.
