The whole retreat is just breathtaking. Even though it was torrential rain for most of our 3 night stay it was the most beautiful location. We witnessed a calf being born, saw wedged tail eagles, Kookaburras and possums. Driving out to the retreat is like having the most glorious Forrest bath even in the pitch black of night we were blessed with the sighting of two Bilbies in two different stretches of road and we stopped and watched their burrowing and scavenging for food close up. The cabin we stayed in#8 (French Provincial) was cosy and warm and was really just so perfect and what I needed. Planning my 50th there next year now. Can’t wait to go back.

This is my second stay at Friday creek, it was just as magical as last time. The cabins are beautiful and clean. The views in the morning were so relaxing . We needed a quick break so this time went without the kids. Other than me constantly annoying my partner that I wish I could pet the cows, we had a very peaceful time. Far enough away from everything, but close enough if you wanted to pop into Coffs for some shopping. Love it and can’t wait to go back!

Friday Creek Retreat is like a home away from home. It is an amazing place to relax, recharge and slow down. The beautiful relaxing setting in the country, the privacy, the cabins, and the amazing pool area just perfect for unwinding. The wonderful Hosts allow you to feel like you’re the only people there in your little cabin and help to make it a totally relaxing time. We are absolutely going to make it a regular getaway.

Cabin was clean and tidy. Great location with amazing mountain views from verandah. Diane and Paul were friendly and helpful when we needed to change our dates . Will be coming back again. Perfect short break to recharge batteries . Was also perfect space for our puppy to stay with us too

This was our third visit to Friday Creek Retreat (and our friends’ fourth), and it has become one of our favourite places to visit. Dianne and Paul go out of their way to ensure we have a pleasant and relaxing stay. The ‘Tribal Cottage’ was nice and warm upon our arrival, and a lovely ‘Welcome Back’ message with a freshly baked loaf of bread and a bottle of wine was really appreciated. We prefer the cooler months so we can enjoy the atmosphere of an open fire. However, the warmer months are also great for spending time around the pool, which has amazing views over the farm and the valley beyond.

This place is a perfect example of a country getaway. It has lovely views down into the valley. The local wildlife are very friendly and welcoming! Our cabin was spacious and comfortable. Bonus - pizza night and the morning loaf of fresh baked bread. Thank you Paul and Dianne.

This place is a paradise for nature lovers and a perfect weekend getaway for us. The cosy cabin felt wonderful and welcoming with everything that we needed. The bed was comfortable and the place was clean. Staff were friendly and helpful. We will definitely return.

Great accommodation on a hinterland farm. Very private separate holiday villas 7 in total but separated so you really have to go looking for your neighbours. Some are 2 bedrooms and some are pet friendly. Hosts are very helpful and arrived to a nice warm villa with air conditioning on. Bags of character with open fires and spa baths and reasonable rates.
