2000 Private Organic Acres at Barrington Tops

The only place in Australia you can drive to over 1500m above sea level and see the unique and wonderful ancient Gondwana rain forests. Don't miss it, it won't last forever.

The cottages are equipped with beautiful red gum kitchen bench tops, spa bathrooms, comfy lounge and dining area. Large flat screen with Austar, wifi, movies and phone. The cottages and cabins all have beautiful polished timber floors recently renovated using organic oils and environmental paints.

Relax on your peaceful balcony by the creek. Watch and listen to the animals and smell the fresh mountain air. Tune into nature - there are no planes, trains or automobiles.

We have recently added organic cotton queen beds with a chiropractic pillow top for extra comfort.

Our restaurant is open for breakfast 7 days and dinner Tuesday - Saturday. All the food is certified organic, grown on the property or by local organic growers. We have been getting some fantastic reviews for our food too. We are proud to offer the full range of Rosnay certified organic wines and olives, cooper or squires ales and organic juice.

We have recently opened 50 km of walks and 4wd tracks on the property covering beautiful thick forest paths and tracks through creeks and down to the pristine Dilgry River. Look out for many rare species of birds including two families of wedge-tailed eagles, a small family of koalas, many potoroos, kangaroos and wallabies. The platypus and brumbies can be found in the high country.

We have 3km of the Dilgry River which is noted as the cleanest river on the Australian mainland with a great picnic area and good fishing. This really is a nature lover's paradise for you to recharge your senses and relax.

A guided 2 hour 4wd drive tour is also available for $50 pp - 2 person min, when weather conditions are favorable and the tracks our completely dry. This cannot be booked or guaranteed but see John when you arrive to make arrangements (towels and beverages supplied).

Self 4wd driving is also available on the property at the drivers own risk but not guaranteed and subject to weather and track conditions.

The area is not only known for its pristine wilderness but many other activities can be enjoyed such as horse riding, kayaking and mountain bike riding. Children can pet the baby guinea pigs and rabbits, collect eggs, feed chickens, ducks, geese, horses, alpacas, goats and cows.

Wild ducks, moore hens and some rare frogs have moved into the lily pond. Ask John to explain about organic farming, sustainable buildings, composting and vegetable gardens. He is passionate about sustainability, soil, worms and good beer.

You are free to use the full size tennis court with racquets, balls and night lights, salt water swimming pool, swings, games room, hay barn, fishing rods, trampoline, Austar movies, sports, dvd's, wifi, board games, pool table and mountain bikes.

The most beautiful rain forest walk is right on your doorstep.

This is a nature lover’s paradise and a special part of Australia just 3.5 hrs from Sydney and 2 hrs from Newcastle.

We hope to welcome you to this unique property soon.
