Farmstay vacation rentals in Northern Rivers

Our 2nd stay at the glorious Beaumont high country homestead and this mini break was just as good, if not better than we remembered. The homestead is the perfect spot to enjoy all that Chinghee Creek has to offer - rolling hills, friendly cattle, peace and quiet, and quality family time at its best. Our kids (10 & 13) spent their days exploring and battling each other at table tennis, and we all enjoyed reading, baking, and board games. Our hosts Claire and Rod were incredibly helpful and generous during our stay, inviting us to view some recently born calves at Christmas Creek. A five star rating doesn't seem enough. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful relaxing 4 days at Oakhurst Cottage. Great place to visit with your dog, all the livestock are very quiet. A lovely property to walk or drive around, we made it all the way to the Manbundi geodetic station at the very top of the property. 1300 meters above sea level. Amazing Views from up there, and an absolute abundance of wildlife. We would highly recommend Oakhurst Farm stay .

The place matched all we wanted, space, veranda, pit for our BBQ, with peace and quiet and good kitchen to cook easily. Close to awesome beaches and Coffs Harbour, we were not bored regardless of rain. Also enjoyed a company of Kelpie dog who watched us so friendly. Definitely back for more great nature and excellent location for peacefull sleep.

We had a lovely time staying in Kelvin Falls Cottage. We had everything we needed and more. It is comfortable, rustic and relaxing. We loved looking out over the land and watching the cows grazing. Sunrises and sunsets were equally beautiful. Rowena and Andrew decorated the cottage beautifully. The furnishings and bedding are beautiful. We loved all the thoughtful extras like the beautiful vase of dahlias, lovely scented bathroom products, pretty cups and variety of teas. The kitchen was well supplied and the fridge was large enough to hold all our supplies. During our stay we explored Stanthorpe and Warwick. We highly recommend exploring Donnelly’s Castle. Thank you for such an enjoyable stay.

A great place for a gathering with friends! Lovely spot & plenty of amenities 😊

The view was amazing. We didn’t leave the deck for the entire weekend . Peaceful and spectacular.

We had a wonderful stay. Fantastic historic cabin peaceful with amazing views. We were fortunate to experience Dean's extensive collection of leather work from the past and what he currently makes. A totally enjoyable farm. Loved the horses and cows. Thanks Kim and Dean!

What a beautiful place to stay. Sue was responsive and incredibly helpful and it was lovely to meet her and the family on our ride (we got to tag along the muster) The property is really well set out to accommodate horses and dogs for your holiday. On Sue‘s recommendation, we took a nice ride down to the river and stopped for morning tea. The home is comfortable with beautiful views down to the Albert River and over the valley. Highly recommended staying here !

We had the best time at Doug and Leonie's beautiful place. They were so friendly and kind, even bringing us an extra loaf of fresh bread since we loved it so much! Our children had the best time feeding the animals and we loved getting to know Doug and Leonie too. The location was beautiful and peaceful and very close to town. the cottage had everything we needed and was tidy and comfortable. Our kids are already missing their 'farm house' and we hope we can visit again someday.

We had a lovely overnight stay! The location was great - easy to find and very peaceful. Communication with the host was clear and prompt, which made everything super smooth. It was also perfect for our dog and kids with plenty of outdoor space.

Perfect place to stay to experience Stanthorpe and the surrounding area. The place is close enough to everything but loved being in the country. Such an amazing stay and would book again.

Kim was the best host and so welcoming. My partner and I stayed for a week and felt right at home. The barn was so clean, well equipped, gorgeous and very peaceful. Kim was lovely enough to leave us fresh flowers from the garden and respond to any questions. Absolutely recommend🌻

Firefly was even better than we thought it was going to be. Complete privacy, awesome accommodations and everything we needed for a peaceful getaway and Wayne & Jodie were lovely hosts. We will definitely return.

One of the best equipped airbnb’s that I’ve stayed at - everything is thought of for guests with easy checkin and heaps of privacy (except from the cows!). The yard was great for our two cavoodles! Thanks Libby

The Cubby hosted by Vanessa and Dave, was a peaceful escape into the Northern Rivers region. Located on a serene pecan nut plantation, the calm atmosphere made us feel at home on arrival. The Cubby is clean, comfortable and well equipped. A short drive down Orara Way took us to Glenreagh, where we enjoyed delicious pastries and pies at the Glenreagh Bakery, the vanilla slice is a must try. Spending time with the resident Highland cows Sinead, Theora, and Bella each with their own sweet personality. Brushing their shaggy coats and snapping photos with them and witnessing their gentle nature was a fun and enjoyable experience. Waking up to horses at the gate, roaming freely around the property, added to the calm, rustic charm of the property. On our final night, Dave brought over a bowl of pecans from the plantation which we enjoyed with a few drinks by the campfire. If you are looking for a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature and friendly animals? This is the spot!

Beautiful location and lovely accomodation. The perfect spot for a farm-stay experience with the family. We would come back again! Stuart was a great host and we had a lovely little holiday.

Fionas cottage was lovely. It is in beautiful Coorabell on a working farm with lovely views. The cottage was compfortable and had all we needed. It is so quiet and restful! Cockatoo One is accessible and doesnt have a shower screen so the bathroom did get a bit wet and beacuse it was raining, didnt dry well but that is a small matter. Maybe cottage 4 for our next stay!

We had a lovely time at Rozie and David’s farm. They were very warm and friendly hosts and we enjoyed joining them at animal feeding time both days we stayed. They went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and gave great local recommendations and insight. The kids enjoyed seeing the goats, sheep, cows and chickens as well as the dogs and we went for a walk to see the kiwi and citrus farms too. It rained a lot but that didn’t bother us because we had the right gear (highly recommend packing gumboots and raincoats). :) The cottage was cozy and clean and well equipped and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to others looking for a farm experience that isn’t busy and commercial.

Thanks Joolie, Willow Cabin for 3 nights was simply perfect! As soon as you arrive and open the red door, the cabin is welcoming inside and out and the view is absolutely spectacular! Sunrise and sunset on the deck with a glass of wine and fire, overlooking the most lush landscape, listening to the birdlife and seeing the resident Wallaby, couldn’t ask for anything more! Plenty to see and do with Lamington National Park only 30 mins away. The cabin had everything and more with such comfy features, thank you I look forward to returning ⭐️ 💞

What can I say - Jo’s place blew me away! I had the most relaxing, secluded, balancing stay I could ever have imagined. The place is lovely, so clean and with everything you need. The pool is huge with a view over the buildings of the Gold Coast - magnificent. The spa, well I wanted to stay in there forever! Then there is the wildlife - wallabies, all kinds of incredible Australian birds - such a treat. The bed -divine. Then, the friendly but unobtrusive hospitality of Jo. What can I say. She looked after my little doggie when I went to lunch with friends. Always there for an interesting chat if you feel like one. She is the real deal, so genuine and lovely and goes above and beyond. Truly, do yourself a favour and stay here!

Another wonderful stay at Sandy's beautiful property. This is now our go to house when visiting Warwick, very peaceful and very accommodating hosts!

A great place for a peaceful retreat. A lot of space for kids to play and enjoy themselves. The mountain views and fields were amazing. We will definitely consider Cara's property for another holiday.

Honestly we can’t wait to book again and wish we booked to stay a week! We travelled 3 hours on the road and was worth it!! Dianne was so kind, considerate and so attentive. It felt like a relaxing home away from home! Family friendly and my 14month old had the best time exploring and was the most relaxed, all the animals were so calm, friendly and approachable, loved giving all the pats and Not to mention the actual cottage, was so beautiful and well maintained. It was honestly perfect and I can’t fault the hosts, the cottage or any part of the experience at all. So happy and we are planning our trip again already, thank you Dianne! :)

Darcelle’s cottage in Numinbah Valley is a very peaceful and beautiful spot. The house was perfect sized for our little family and the kids loved the swings, feeding the cows and paddling in the creek. Darcelle was most accommodating and helpful with instructions. A great stay!
