Great for observing nature

Had a great time at this property, plenty to do if you like the outdoors. A plus to owner for providing recycling and compost bins. And love the artwork in the house. Property description could be improved to better describe the facility.

Great location in nature

Great experience at the Budawang cottage. The cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay, and there’s loads to explore in the surroundings. My 8 y/o and I had a blast during our father-son weekend together

escape to the bush

Thanks to the friendly hosts for making their lovely piece of pristine river and bush available. The sturdy little off-grid cottage has all the basics, the location is great for kayaking, bushwalks, or just enjoying some get-away-from-it-all relaxation.

Definitely away from it all

This is a very cosy cabin literally in the middle of nowhere, but a very beautiful setting. Ross and Joanne were very welcoming. Loved seeing the lyrebird and wallabies. I would urge everyone to read the explanation about the facilities and think hard about whether they are going to suit you. While having an outside toilet didn’t bother me, it did freak out the kids a bit and it wasn’t fun having to escort them every time they needed to pee during the night! We still had a really fun time however.

Lovely, quiet place to escape the rat race!

Had a great weekend at this beautiful, quiet and pet-friendly property. The hosts are lovely and super friendly. The property is a beautiful bush location. The cabins are rustic but very comfortable. Will definitely return.

Budawang Cottage

Great cabin, good fire, comfy beds, hot shower. Helpful host, lovely scenery and walks. Lots of wildlife. Even enjoyed the outside 'loo with a view. We'd definitely recommend it for those who really like to get away for the simple life. Cabin well equipped too.
