What an AMAZING hidden gem!

We had the most beautiful stay at Molly’s Farm! Colleen and Ray have thought of absolutely everything to make you comfortable during your stay, with lots of little extra touches. The property is just stunning, and we thoroughly enjoyed exploring their extraordinary gardens. There is also plenty to explore in the area, with lots to see and do nearby. We can’t recommend the place enough! You simply must see it for yourself! We’ll be back! Thank you guys xxx

Beautiful hidden gem in the Rain forest

This little gem is nestled in between 2 different national parks and is located between local landmarks like Minyon falls, Protestor falls and Crystal Castle. Sitting in front of the fire pit each night with a glass of bubbles was a perfect way to end each day

Excellent stay

Collen and Ray were engaging while discreet and always willing to help with attention to detail. The honey was excellent and fresh eggs a pleasure to cook. The place was pleasantly decorated and a nice garden. There is plenty to do in he neighborhood and great walks from the door step.

Bushland Retreat at Molly's Farm

Colleen and Ray were most welcoming. As it was raining when we arrived it was wonderful to be greeted by Colleen's warm friendly face, keen to assist us to settle in comfortably. We also enjoyed their company one early evening. At first we missed the TV but soon reverted to listening to music, playing games and reading. We came away quite relaxed. Unfortunately the weather prevented us enjoying extended walks in the surrounding bushland. The cottage was thoughtfully furnished and provisioned. We can fully recommend a stay at Molly's Farm.

More than we thought we were getting!

Private, quite, spacious and right at the edge of the National Park. Our hosts left us fresh eggs, milk, good coffee and honey. We also had access to the garden for a fresh salad to go with our bbq. A bird haven with lots of red-necked padymelons. I will definitely return.

An oasis from the stresses of life

This was a wonderful rental. The host was friendly and very hospitable and ensured we were comfy. I can’t fully describe just how beautiful the location and farm were. The incredible beauty enabled us to feel rejuvenated very quickly. We loved this stay.

Secluded, Peaceful and Natural

This is the first time we friend's planned for an outing and looking at the pics and reviews we chose Molly's and it truly didnt disappoint us. Such a natural place with Mangoes, tomato and other fruits and veggies. I would suggest the future stayerz to taste the mango as they were awesome. The eggs, fruits, milk, novels, music system and monopoly made our day more beautiful as we didnt look at our mobile for solid 3 hours :) Thanks a lot for providing us a wonderful stay Colleen & Ray. Cheers, The 4 Gentlemen

Peaceful stay in an amazing natural location

This farm is becoming my home away from home as I last stayed here 2 years ago and have been eager to get back to the beautiful rainforest and farm ever since! Everything was exactly as I remembered and the wi-fi and BBQ are a great addition to the property. Colleen & Ray were as welcoming and accommodating as ever and really went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and well-looked after during our entire stay. The lanterns, eggs, milk, fresh produce are all truly appreciated and it's touches like these and warm interactions with this fabulous duo that will keep us coming back to Molly's Farm again and again :) <3 Thank you again for an incredible experience!

Secluded and beautiful

You’ll live the privacy and charm of this property and hopefully leave yourself enough time to explore the many local towns and sights. We found out five days went fast as we kept heading down the mountain but missed out on several places up in the hinterlands. The rooms were lovely and we fitted out third child in with a provided air mattress. We met local animals - all friendly - and had some great chats to the owners. Keep in mind the windy roads if you’re bringing kids prone to car sickness.

The property is well positioned to do short day trips in the area. We very much enjoyed the location and the garden.

A wonderful stay in the Byron Bay hinterland.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Molly's Farm. College and Ray were exceptional hosts and they, their family and friends made our Christmas very enjoyable. The property is in an exceptional location, adjacent to Nightcap National Park and Rocky Creek dam. Avid beachgoers may find the distance from the coast, 45 minutes drive, somewhat off-putting, however it's a beautiful drive through the hills to the coast with little traffic to contend with. Bangalow, the Channon and Nimbin are all close by, and there's usually a market happening somewhere. Highly recommended .

A Peaceful Retreat in Paradise

Our family stayed for 4 nights in January and Molly's Farm was the perfect little escape for us to unwind and relax after long days exploring the Northern Rivers and Hinterland. We loved spending time with Colleen & Ray (our fabulous hosts), Max (the Drake), Charlie (the pantsless cockatoo) and enjoyed fresh eggs and veggies from the garden each day. The queen beds were cosy and we made great use of the kitchen and family dining table. We loved that there was no TV, and we gazed at the stars each night and spotted wildlife at every opportunity. Our hosts were so generous and welcoming and we can't wait to return and see what they have done with the farm next.
