It became a music studio where songs flew between Nashville, LA, and Firefly\* but today, is a freshly renovated spacious cottage under a towering Morton Bay fig tree where you can get creative or just kick back, relax and explore our property or nearby attractions of the lower mid north coast. Birdwatchers - take note! There's a free album to anyone who can add another bird species to our list of more than 50 birds spotted on our 50 acres! Alternatively head to the nearby sandy beaches of Tuncurry, Forster or Blackhead, the mountain backdrops of Gloucester and Barrington, or the mighty Manning River of Taree. Our hill is only 15 minutes off the Pacific Highway at Nabiac. Dairy Song studio features one large bedroom with queen size bed (& an optional fold-out bed for a child), a kitchen/dining room, and a rustic bathroom. Tinkle the ol' ivories on an heirloom piano or classic Fender Rhodes, curl up in front of the fireplace to read or watch TV (Netflix and On Demand TV available), access the Wifi, check out the sunrise or sunset from the decks outside, stretch out with some yoga on the decks or some hammock time, enjoy the outdoor hot/cold shower under the fig tree (day or night!), head out for a walk along our pathways, play some of our games (supplied) or gaze in wonder at the star-filled night sky. Breakfast options include a fridge stocked with fresh local free range eggs, milk, tea, coffee, etc. Dinner can be sourced nearby from Krambach or Nabiac Hotels, or you are welcome to use the BBQ and well-equipped kitchen facilities provided. Up to 2 small to medium size friendly dogs are welcome. Tick protection is recommended and note that although it's unlikely, we do not guarantee the more curious dogs won't find a way through the fence! We have a very friendly border collie who will be happy to befriend you or your dog, if his company is sought. Always respecting your privacy, our own house where we live with our two children is less than 100m away, should you need anything at all. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - Hair dryer - Outdoor shower - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Music library - Smart TV - Stereo - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Fenced yard - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 25 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - 4 steps to reach entrance - Area rugs in public areas - Hardwood flooring in public areas - No lift - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - In a rural location - Near the bay ### Things to do - Water park - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Sailing nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Water skiing nearby - Whale watching nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/121000000/120090000/120088700/120088647/4c1745a0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Forest Creek Retreat - Double Room with Garden View Bunyah - Pool - Air conditioning - Tennis court - Parking available [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-28&endDate=2025-11-29&selected=120088647&PinnedHotelID=120088647&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/65000000/64580000/64572900/64572898/8bbeef92.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Waukivory School House 1913.
