About this property

Lily Pond Views | Cosy Rainforest Cottage | Byron Bay Hinterland

Come and unwind at Rose Gum Cottage, located at Nightcap Ridge in the Byron Bay Hinterland surrounded by the Nightcap National Park. Curl up by the fire or go for a walk around the 67 acres of the property, surrounded by rainforest and enjoy the plethora of bird and animal life at your doorstep. There are lots of amazing swimming spots a stones throw from the property - Boomerang Falls, Whian Whian Falls. Searching with friends? We can sleep up to 10 (12 with foldaway beds) on the property. We have a second cottage ‘Blue Fig’ which is the same layout as the Rose Gum as well as a rustic studio log cabin which sleeps 2.
Note: We can provide a foldaway for a fifth person if you specify upon booking.

We really loved our stay! Nick and Adam were such welcoming and helpful hosts and the cottage and grounds were stunning! The cottage was beautifully clean, well equipped and so inviting. We really enjoyed being able to experience so much nature without needing to go anywhere but equally the convenience to be able drive only a few minutes to see the beautiful waterfalls and more of what nature had to offer elsewhere. We are looking forward to a longer stay next time!

What a wonderful place to stay in the middle of the forest. A peaceful and restful place to get away from everything. The cottage itself is lovely with everything you need, spacious and clean and private. Loved the decor and the clawfoot bath. Next time we would take all our food with us as the nearest small store is 20 mins away and the nearest restaurants are 40 minutes away. Would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Adam and Nick

Host profile image

Former Sydney creatives Adam and Nick live on-site in a stunning old Queenslander at the other end of the property. Adam is an interior stylist and loves to constantly update the cottages with subtle styling touches to make guests feel at home.
We'll give you plenty of space to enjoy all that Nightcap has to offer, but we're also on hand if you need anything.

Why they chose this property


Nightcap Ridge allows you to slow down and escape from the world. Watching birds from your cottage, take a long bath or star gaze by your own private campfire. A perfect romantic holiday, or a catch-up with friends. With three accommodation options on-site, all separate and private from one another, there's also the option to hire all three for a larger group holiday.

What makes this property unique

Nightcap Ridge offers the rare opportunity to stay inside a world heritage-listed National Park. Nightcap National Park has numerous animals, birds and plants unique to the park itself. While we're deep in the bush, there's still plenty of space - our generous lawns are a perfect spot for picnics, ambles and star gazing.
