Just returned from a two night stay in a cabin with my partner, and it was the perfect long weekend away! There are lots of animals wandering around to keep you company, or if you just want to sit and listen, the whole area is alive with birdsong! We even had some visitors to the balcony in the form of... More

My partner and I stayed here for one night as a spontaneous get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and we were very impressed! The staff were very enthusiastic and helpful and we were blown away by the cabin. We stayed in cabin number 4 and it was more than we could have ever wanted- a large... More

We just returned from two nights of bliss. Cabins are amazing - open fire, spa, comfy lounges, kitchen and large dining table. Two decks and surrounded by forest - nothing but green trees and a babbling brook from our windows. The walks are lovely, lots of farm animals for the children to feed and a tennis court as well. There... More

I was looking for a relaxing place to go away and stay with my family and my dog in the area over Easter and I came across this beautiful retreat. We stayed for 5 nights and thoroughly enjoyed them all! We stayed in the cottage and it was beautifully furnished and a very comfortable, enjoyable place to stay! The owners... More

The trip along the unsealed road framed by magnificent scenery had my husband reminiscing about his boyhood adventures in rural Wales. Our eldest son was fascinated by the views, horses and cows; and as we entered the property, two Alpacas, geese, goats and cows greeted us much to the bemusement of our 4 and 1 year olds. Our first night... More

The accommodation, dining room/sitting room were very comfortable and afforded great views of the bush. We also felt... More

We stayed at The Tops during Easter in one of their wilderness lofts which are designed for couples, although they can sleep four. Our friends stayed in the loft next door. The accommodation was very good, lovely wooden floors and benches and a comfortable double bed in the upstairs bedroom. Our hosts John and Shanini recently put kitchens in the... More

My daughter and I recently had the most amazing stay at Barrington Tops Organic Retreat. It was only one night, but it was thoroughly enchanting. Our directions on how to find Organic Tops Retreat were excellent and made the drive from Newcastle an easy one. The scenery along the way was just gorgeous! We stopped at Stroud for lunch and...

My partner, our two kids, and I spent three nights here in January 2012. Loved it. The kids (6 and 2) loved feeding the guinea pigs and rabbits, splashing in the pool, mucking about in the kayak, and playing in the large common room on the pool table. Tony and his wife were warm, welcoming, and accommodating. We paid for... More
