Cooper's Cabin
Adventure in Coopers Shoot, North Coast, NSW, AU
We ventured north to escape the hustle and bustle of Sydney and found ourselves in this cozy off-grid cabin nestled in the hills of Byron hinterland. The views were captivating even though we were hit with heavy rain showers and fog hovering over the coastline for the majority of our stay. We could however still watch a small glimpse of the sunrise and sunset from our deck.
The outdoor bath and shower also had beautiful views overlooking the paddock. When the rain tapered off, we were able to make a fire and unwind from the day. We filled our days with local adventures starting off with a surf at Wategos beach and later visited Marom waterfalls which was beautifully tucked away. There were plenty of cafes and restaurants in the area as well as scenic views and little shops along the way.
This place was genuinely special. I would recommend to any couple visiting the area as it has everything you need, and the location is perfect- close to town and beaches, but also quiet and peaceful with beautiful views of the hinterland....
