The land has been retained in it's natural state except for the additional planting of thousands more local species of trees & shrubs.  There has been minimum felling of trees yet all cottages have beautiful outlooks.  The internal roads to the cottages and the residence twist and turn as a result of careful planning to minimise the removal of trees.  Electricity runs  underground and this was done at a huge (dollar) cost but a cost that the

owners were comfortable in paying. . . . there is nothing to spoil the landscapes. Make no mistake, this is a very special part of Australia. Water is collected from both the Home and the Cottages and an environmental sewerage system has been installed.  All cottages have balconies, open plan living, Kitchenettes and spa bathrooms looking into the rainforest.   The ultimate in privacy for guests.

Some of the furniture in the cottages has been built from site timber. The ambience is warm & friendly, cosy and secure.  The comments in the Guests registers are testiment to how the owners have managed to create the perfect recipe for a "home away from home".

Children are not catered for, animals (being a threat to native wildlife) are not allowed . . . this is a "couples only" retreat, the perfect spot to relax, unwind and de-stress.  In absolute privacy. A hot & cold gourmet breakfast basket is delivered each evening for the next morning.   The local township is just 10 minutes away by car with Cafes, Clubs, Pubs & Restaurants, Galleries & shopping. The Location is the Tweed Valley and from the site there are views to the Coast and the Magnificent Mount Warning.     You are about 95 minutes from Brisbane, 45 minutes from Byron Bay, 35 minutes from Kingscliff, Casurina, Coolangatta and the Gold Coast Airport.  You are a million miles from care. . . The owners (who developed the property) are only selling due to the ill health of one of the partners. They are physically unable to complete the building plan (the remaining 2 cottages and a guests Carport area) All "exit cleans" for the cottages are currently contracted out to locals, Linen is professionally laundered at nearby Tweed Heads and apart from that there is very little upkeep as the site remains as close as possible to it's natural state.

The residence blends beautifully into the landscape. It is accessed from it's own private near new bitumenl road which branches off from the internal bitumen road to the cottages.  The guests do not call at the house, it too, is totally private.    No curtains needed. It is built atop the highest ridge in an area now designated a wildlife corridor . . . the only neighbours are wallabies, echidnas, bandicoots, lizards and the native birds. Views are stunning. The home has been crafted from Cypress Pine and is elevated on timber poles which become internal features. It is built to cyclone standards. The front, foot access, bridges around a  water feature to the door. Entrance into the main living area which features a "conversation pit" with built in padded seating around the fireplace.  Plenty of open plan living area, a seperate dining space overlooking Mt.Warning, a beautiful practical Kitchen with centre island and a built in dinette.  Timber ceilings & built in shelving and seating are features on this level.  A large "L" shaped covered Verandah is accessed via french doors. The main living area also contains the second & third bedrooms which share a bathroom and seperate toilet and an outdoor deck . The  laundry is also in this area of the home.     Pull down ladder access to attic storage.    Stairs down to the "back door", another toilet & handbasin, storage (could be wine cellar) and underneath parking/storage area. The elevated site affords an ever changing outlook to the Coast from the deep blue of Pacific Ocean on clear days to white fluffy cloud "groundcover" on low cloud days and breathtaking sunrises & sunsets.   Each one different, always stunning.

The main bedroom suite is a seperate island accross a walkway from the dining room side of the main home living area. It features a large bedroom with built-ins & lounge area, a wrap around Verandah and its own en-suite bathroom. . . . Private space within this already private sanctuary. It would be a very simple task to enclose part of the verandah area and add some Kitchen facilities if it were ever necessary to make it a fully self contained apartment.
