    We had a comfortable two nights in the cabin. It wasn’t easy to get to with dirt roads etc but host was helpful through text. The cabin is rustic but clean and had most things we needed.we were there for a music festival in Dungog so a little out of the way and a hard drive back at night But if the intention was to relax in nature then the cabin would be a good choice

    Ideal place for nature lovers to relax

    The indoors was very comfortable and spacious with everything we needed. The best part was the windows and veranda all around, allowing us to appreciate the views of hills and sunsets and enjoy seeing the many bird and marsupial visitors. We had a lovely time exploring the property and using it as a base to explore more widely.

    Wonderful and cosy country cabin stay

    Had a great Valentines weekend here with my partner. Max and Bronwyn were great to communicate with and left clear instructions in the cabin for us to use the ammenities such as aircon and spa. Property was really clean and well looked after and surrounding country provided beautiful views and a relaxing atmosphere. Would come here again!

    We found the property to be so lovely and well maintained. Everything was clean and comfortable. The fire pit was what drew our attention to the property and it did not disappoint! My family and I had the best night sitting around it toasting marshmallows.

    Magnificent retreat

    Such a peaceful and beautiful location. Very comfortable cabin with everything needed for a wonderful break. To wake every morning to the bell birds amongst the trees and assorted other wildlife singing amongst the trees was special. The sky was clear to view the stars away from the city lights.

    Cozy retreat from the hustle and bustle

    The perfect retreat for those looking to escape into the countryside! Excellent communication and care from property manager Bronwyn, who goes the extra mile in ensuring guests are comfortable during their stay at Fosterton retreat, while also providing extensive resources for things to do in the Dungog area. I especially loved the attention to detail in the descriptions of the nearby hiking trails. Overall a wonderful experience, would definitely recommend.

    The location was beautiful, with plenty of wildlife to watch, the river was great for a swim on the hot day. Hosts were helpful with clarity in all communication and unfailing friendliness. Highly recommend. There is another cabin nearby, but we never saw or heard anyone else during our stay.

    Relaxing Peace and Quiet

    Cabin was the perfect size for two people. Amenities were great, with everything we needed to cook our meals. Decor is a bit outdated, the towels were scratchy and the dye pattern was a little offputting, but the bed was comfy and there were plenty of blankets to keep warm and cosy. Heating was very efficient. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
