About this property
Fairlight Cottage country retreat
Fairlight Cottage is set in the homestead garden of a 65 acre property, overlooking the Clarence River, the Valley and the Great Dividing Range. Set halfway between the beaches and the mountains, the cottage is 20 mins from the highway and the city. You have your own 2 bedroom residence that was built for guests. It is fully stocked and all that is missing is You. NOTE: New: From June 1st, 2017, there is a minimum 2 night stay.
The Continental breakfast provided is generous because you cannot walk down to a coffee shop...Instead you can stay cosy in the kitchen, or walk over to the Forster Room and relax in a spacious outdoor lounge and dining area.
The mature garden is host to may different birds and native animals. To protect these, the property is not pet friendly. Your hosts believe in genuine old -fashioned country hospitality and the guests appreciate it, like Kathy from WA- "Pamela was so welcoming and generous we felt instantly at home when arriving at Fairlight. We booked in at very short notice but we were accommodated with no trouble and the place was spotless when we got there. The cottage is lovely and the property so quiet and peaceful with beautiful views down to the river. We would definitely stay here again."
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
