About this property

Kyvale Cottage - Country retreat

Spacious 2 bedroom country cottage set in 5 acres of open horse paddocks with views across the valley to the spectacular ridges behind.
A Byron Bay Hinterland get away for couples seeking peace and serenity, but still close to the cafes and restaurants of Brunswick Heads and Mullumbimby, and the beaches of South Golden and New Brighton.

Relax on the deck and experience the beauty of the late afternoon light, while cooking some of the amazing local produce on the BBQ or just relax with a beverage around the firepit.
Your stay includes a welcoming committee including Bradley and Darcy our very friendly dogs and Tess, Karisma, Demi and Symbar our horses.

Everything you need within the cottage is provided, modern kitchen, TV, Wifi, books an board games, air conditioning and heaters for those cool nights.

The cottage is attached to the main house by a breezeway which is screened for privacy.

Situated only 30 minutes from Ballina or the Gold Coast airports, we are ideally situated for that well deserved short weekend getaway or long break

Sorry, cottage is not suitable for children under 4 years.

No pets allowed.

Great for a short escape.

Cottage with a View

My daughters and I enjoyed the peaceful setting with the added bonus of horses, and friendly dogs to pat. Everything was provided with comfy beds, modern kitchen and large bathroom with a lovely shower. It was very handy being close to Mullum and Brunswick Heads, as well as many bushwalks. Robin is very accommodating and kind.

Perfect peaceful getaway

Beautiful part of the world, very scenic, love the fact you aren’t far from town but feel like you’re far away. Robin the host is so lovely and couldn’t be more accommodating. Cabin is extremely comfy with everything you could need. Thank you 🙏🏻 Personally, the 4 legged welcoming committee and weekend companions made my trip 💕🐾
