The Writers Room by Contemporary Hotels

Tucked away in the serene Byron Bay Hinterland on Bundjalung Country, The Writers Room is recognized among Byron Bay holiday homes as an ideal sanctuary for creativity and relaxation. Thoughtfully designed with comfort and sustainability at its heart, this charming, self-contained retreat encourages guests to unwind, connect with nature, and fully embrace the peaceful surroundings.

The Writers Room
Featuring a private kitchenette and an outdoor shower overlooking lush forest, this cottage has been featured in Good Weekend’s 52 Weekends Away. Ideal for solo travellers or couples, it offers luxurious touches, including a queen-sized bed, premium linens, and carefully curated ceramics and towels. Guests can write, relax on the daybed, or simply enjoy the natural soundtrack of native birds.

The Location
Set in the heart of the Byron Bay Hinterland, The Writers Room also provides an excellent base for exploring holiday rentals in Byron Bay and nearby attractions. Surrounded by the lush Goonengerry National Park, guests can enjoy panoramic views of rolling hills while still being just a short drive from Byron Bay’s famous beaches, cafés, and boutique shops. For larger groups, Goonengerry House can be rented alongside The Writers Room for a private yet social retreat.
