We have partnered up with Will & Co coffee for your morning cup and the kitchen will be stocked with all your essentials such as olive oil, salt and pepper.
Location:
St.Albans is a stunning village set on the Upper Macdonald river and is only 20 minutes away. Right in the heart of it is one of the oldest pubs in Australia called Settlers Arms. It is draped in history dating back to the 1800’s when convicts were building nearby roads. Weekends have live music in the Oak tree garden and you’ll find people visiting from all over NSW.
Many hikes and walks such as “Jacks Track” are available if you want to burn off some energy and see the valley from the mountain peaks. Situated in the middle of a national park you can take a hike quite literally whenever you wish on the property.
Heads up:
You will be sent "Your Guide to the Wilderness" 7 days before arrival which includes everything you need to know about getting there, what to expect and bring. Please check out our FAQ's and if you have any questions, reach and message us.

Wild and Seek was born out of the need for everyday Australians to escape the hustle of urban life and reconnect with both nature and themselves.
The Wild and Seek team worked tirelessly through the design process to ensure every aspect is environmentally friendly and self-sufficient, minimising its footprint on the land and allowing guests to experience what it means to be off grid with a sumptuousness twist.
