We visited from NZ, staying 6 nights and look forward to coming again!It was particularly tranquil, peaceful and private as well as being nicely presented. The bird life was great to listen to and the rainforest enchanting. We also loved being so close to the delightful Bangalow village and managed to coincidentally time our stay with the annual Billy Cart race - great to experience!Gill and Peter were the ideal hosts and we were made to feel very comfortable. We could not recommend this place more highly!
We spent the first three nights of our holiday here and totally relaxed in comfortable, beautiful surroundings. Gill and Peter were charming and hospitable and we could not have asked for more. We'll certainly be back!
The delightful private leafy aspect with thoughtfully appointed tasteful interior makes this a warmly comfortable stay.

Stayed for a week at the apartment. What a quiet and relaxing stay! Set in a tranquil tropical forest just out of Bangalow Village. Highly recommend for Byron lovers who have a car and don't mind a small drive to feel the relaxation of the hinterland.
We really enjoyed our stay over the weekend. The apartment was gorgeous and cosy and Gill had pre-heated the room which was so lovely to come into on a cold winter night! The location is excellent, only 5-10minutes from Bangalow and close enough to Brunswick, Mullumbimby, Byron and Lennox to do plenty of exploring. Gill and Peter were lovely and we hope to stay again soon
Very nice location and lovely unit with every thing you needed. The hosts were very friendly and most accomodating. The food at the pub in Bangalow was delicious. My friend and I were there to attend a funeral would loved to have stayed longer but had to get home for Mothers day. A most enjoyable few days even though we we there for such a sad occasion.
This was a wonderful property, very peaceful and relaxing. The apartment was very spacious and comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped (despite no stove or oven) with excellent outdoor bbq, and so had everything we needed. Communication with hosts was excellent and very helpful. Lots to see and do in the local area. Highky recommend!
We found the apartment was very well fitted out. We received some very good tips for things to do in the area and were asked to “crack” the bathroom window to allow air to circulate during showering. We found the apartment to have a pervading odour of mildew. Perhaps due to its location beneath the main house & its shaded westerly aspect. Perhaps this could be addressed…
The Northern Rivers hinterland is picture-book gorgeous, with ready access to beaches, bushwalks, cultural attractions and the glitz of Byron Bay or the charm of Bangalow. The property is in a beautiful quiet rural setting, is clean and well maintained, and has everything you need during your stay. It is built in under the hosts' home which forms the upper level. Entry to each level is completely separate, offering full privacy to each. Communication with the hosts was excellent; there was a minor issue during my stay but Gill responded promptly to my email with solution options and it was sorted out quickly and without fuss. Highly recommended.

Would not recommend this place!We understand that this place is in a rainforest, but there’s a difference between damp and mould. It was a pretty shocking stay unfortunately, the heavy smell of mould was really intense! It really didn’t help that the layers of dust all over the walls and paintings was thick!! Very uncomfortable to sleep without getting dusty mould smell with every breath, did not feel tranquil! The bathroom clearly had painted over mould spots, same as under the air cons was either layers of dust or mould or both.We were advised to turn air purifier and dehumidifier of 2 air cons, on at all times. Which isn’t ideal as the place needed wayy more help!**No washing machine in this place!It can be difficult to see positive in this place, but there is! the bed were very comfortable, supportive and clean.Last review was in Nov2025, what’s happened since? Was there damage that wasn’t reported?Our next stop accommodation was in the middle of Lismore and the place there smelled incredibly beautiful and fresh. A far cry from this place, unfortunate, but true!
it was beyond all expectations everything needed was available and I would recommend this beautiful haven to the most fastidious of guests

The property was beautifully presented and very tranquil. Very close to Byron and surrounding towns and hosts were very nice with great suggestions on things to do in the area
