About the host
Hosted by Gary Plumridge
Barramunga has been the area we explored on our hiking expeditions as younger folk & to have "Barradise" now is a dream come true!
We are delighted to share the opportunity for you to stay in our home to unwind, relax & be restored.

Why they chose this property
"Barradise" is set back in the rainforest so you hardly hear any road noise, just the sound of birds, kookaburras, king parrots, rosellas, cookatoos, magpies etc.
The lounge area has a wood fire on those cold wet wintery days with floor to ceiling windows to sit & read a good book or watch Foxtel or one of the many DVD's provided for your use.
Table Tennis room offers hours of family fun too.
With on site walking trails you will think you are miles from anywhere!!
