Relax at Repentance Creek

Adventure in Goonengerry, North Coast, NSW, AU

The rolling hills and scenic roadways of the hinterlands lead us right to our slice of rainforest paradise for the weekend. Nestled away in the hillocks of Byron our cabin was everything we had hoped for; cozy, in the heart of nature, and still close enough to the surrounding towns of Federal, Mullumbimby, and Byron.

There's really no reason to leave the property once you arrive, the private water hole, swing set, outdoor fire pit, and rainforest provide everything you need to complete the perfect weekend reset.

Our mornings were spent by the fire with a coffee in hand. While our afternoons were for swimming our worries away at the creek. My favourite weekend perk was enjoying the properties private sunset lookout at "Sunset Ridge".

It doesn't get much better than this....

Where there is Water, there is Fun.

The properties private watering hole is the perfect place to spend the afternoon, and that's exactly what we did. Swim, swing, or make your way up the creek and surround yourself in the whimsical rainforest....

Sunsets at Sunset Ridge

Panoramic views at the top of the property that overlooks the rainforest canopy. Have a seat at the picnic table, crack a cold one, and enjoy the sunset. Oh yeah, the best part - it's only a 5-minute stroll up the road....

Rock & Roll Brunch

We stopped in Mullumbimby on our way home for a delicious brunch at the Rock & Roll Cafe, if you're looking for south-east Asian flavours to scratch that itch for overseas travelling, this is it....

Twilight Yoga by the Fire

We grounded ourselves with some twilight yoga. Led by my mum right at the property, followed by a warm cup of coffee by the fire....
