The property is simply stunning! A beautiful renovation of a weatherboard Presbyterian Church with attention to detail and quality inclusions. The landscaped yard is a delight to wander around. We loved our weekend stay and hikes in a quiet and very beautiful part of the world.

Perfect property to recharge our batteries...

We really enjoyed our stay at Barrington. The chapel is a great conversion, we found everything we needed for our stay and loved the sitting area at the back of the property. You can do as much or as little locally, we went for a couple of hikes, but also enjoyed some much needed downtime relaxing at the chapel.

Perfect property

My partner and I loved our stay at Barrington. The house was spacious and extremely well fitted out. The kitchen had everything we needed. We enjoyed the cafes and bakery in nearby Gloucester. Great bushwalks a short drive away where we saw lots of birds including a lyre bird just 2 metres from us. Fantastic! We will definitely come back. Thank you

Absolutely wonderful, serene and peaceful. The Church at Barrington was absolutely perfect for a quiet few days away. Beautiful, spacious and uncluttered, it had everything we wanted for a comfortable stay. Amazingly comfortable bed, great bathroom and lovely clean white linen and towels. The setting and the surrounding area just wonderful, from lovely little towns to the beautiful Barrington Tops National Park. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Immaculate property.

The Church at Barrington is a wonderful place to stay. The property is immaculate and very well fitted out, including a washing machine and dryer - very handy if you've been tramping around the countryside! Only a short drive into Gloucester for dinner.

Sublime space

A delight… ease of booking, clear succinct instructions and the most gloriously renovated church space I’ve ever stayed in. I spent four days by myself in rest and recuperation at the end of two weeks traveling and couldn’t have asked for better!!! Wonderful for solos or couples wanting something just that little bit magical. Thank you

Amazing place to stay

This property was an amazing place to stay. The conversion of the church has been very sensitively and tastefully done to an exceptionally high standard. As a living space, the format is luxury "open plan" with a verandah and BBQ at the back which mostly overlooked bush which was a great place for an evening drink and to BBQ a steak for dinner. The weather was against us with lots of rain but we found plenty to do to keep us occupied in nearby Gloucester and a hike at the beautiful Copeland State Conservation Area which was also close by. We are very fastidious people and this property was absolutely immaculate in every respect. Highly recommended.

Hi Michael - so glad you enjoyed your stay. We put alot of effort into the restoration and it is good for that to be appreciated. It is a great spot being literally at the foothills of the Tops. Welcome back anytime - the gardens will grow and mature over the years and it will become a real oasis. Regards Stephen

Amazing property

Myself and my wife stayed for a couple of night and had an amazing time. The property is unique and the experience was exceptional. The conversion has been done to a very high standard with modern touches enhancing the history of the building. If you’re looking for somewhere different that is presented to a very high standard. This is the place for you.

Not to be missed!

Fabulous short stay, the recent quality renovation is amazing. We cooked and ate in both nights we were there. The kitchen was extremely well equipped with good quality saucepans, knives, crockery etc. The garden will look stunning in a few years when fully established . All in all highly recommended, make your booking now!
