Review by Beautiful Accommodation
Mountaintop eco-cottagesThe mystically beautiful Barrington Tops plateau has a magnetic attraction for those who want to check into the ancient world of Gondwanaland. This is a land of valleys, waterfalls, starry nights and trees and ferns that have held on for 100 million years. At Ros and Kevin Runciman’s three secluded eco-cottages you can travel back to this land that time forgot.
Ros and Kevin have created something special with these cottages, which reflect their passion for connecting dwellings with landscape. A profound place awareness shines through in every detail, from the local stone and timber used in their construction to the ultra-light tread of their carbon footprints. Elouera is perfect for a family getaway with older kids. It has two queen-size beds and twin singles, a fire-lit lounge (with a great sound system), a full kitchen and a funky detached shower house. Each cottage has an outdoor firepit for cooking and after-dinner sing-alongs under the crystal clear stars. For bigger parties, Ros and Kevin also have the five-bedroom Noonameena House just down the road.
Trips to the scenic highlights of the Barrington Tops are easy. But there is plenty to see and do on this 57-hectare, officially designated wildlife refuge.

We have stayed at Yeranda many times. I discovered this slice of heaven a little over five years ago and find myself needing to return year after year. It's the peace and quiet, a glass of wine by the the camp fire, staring at the stars and the feeling
of being miles from anywhere that work their magic on my spirit every time I stay...even just 24 hours is enough to cleanse me of the madness of city life. Ros and Kev have created a beautiful sanctuary and have thought of absolutely everything, which makes
it so easy for me to do nothing.

We have stayed at Kalimna (the single-bedroom cottage) seven times and Pindari (the two-bedroom cottage) twice since November 2007. There is no better place for a quiet, relaxing holiday in a natural bushland setting. Heaps of wildlife come to visit and
the frog pond at Kalimna is magical. The outdoor showers are great! Our hosts, Ros and Kevin, could not be friendlier or more helpful and the cottages have everything you could possibly want or need for your stay. We'll certainly keep returning!!

Lovely place to stay in the wilderness yet still close enough to civilisation I have stayed here 3 times and and each visit is a new experience. Nice quaint cottages, great hosts, wildlife everywhere, A visit is highly recommended

A truly lovely place for a bush retreat. I have stayed both with my family and alone at all the cottages and Nunameena. Just bring your food - everything else is on tap - spotlessly maintained by charming hosts and lots of opportunities for a bush experience in comfort - only a short drive from the big smoke too so there is just no excuse not to get away - I highly recommend it to all would be bushies who like a comfy bed and shower - great for families too - Enjoy it - We all did.

We have recently returned from a simply outstanding trip to Noonmeena. Eating in the evening with the wallabies close by, picnicking beside the nearly creeks, cycling into Dungog combined to produce the perfect antidote to the normal hussle and bussle. The views and tranquility were superb.
Kevin and Ros were excellent hosts, they have a unique ability to attend immediately to all our needs whilst not imposing in any way. Their charm and kindness along with all Noonameena's attributes will ensure a speedy return.

We have stayed at Yeranda many times and at Noonameena, the largest house of Yeranda a few times. It is in the most beautiful setting. Fantastic with a large group. Great facilities inside and out. Great times sitting outside under the stars by the fire and the outdoor shower is magic. Just can't get enough of the whole Yeranda experience.

After our first stay at Yeranda we knew we had found a special place to relax & enjoy the serenity. The warmth & charm of the stone & timber cottages reflects the dedication of the friendly hosts Kev & Ros, well maintained & organised to make a stay very
enjoyable. A few days at Yeranda leaves you feeling totally relaxed & keen to organise the next visit, leaving is hard. A selection of accommodation that meets all requirements.
