Carawirry Forest Escape
ABOUT
Gum Leaf Cabin at Carawirry is newly renovated and fully self-contained with every comfort you could desire, and yet it is very quiet and private. It’s sister cabin, The Treehouse at Carawirry is situated 150+ metres away in an identical setting. Situated on 250 private acres of spectacular native rainforest, you’d be forgiven for thinking you have left the real world behind.
Walk the seasonal Carawirry Creek as it meanders through the property. A quick look around and you’ll notice the surrounds are bursting with unique and beautiful flora and fauna.
Situated in Main Creek, a farming valley, and only a short 20 minute drive from Dungog, you’ll pass one the largest dairy farms in the Hunter at the beginning of the valley. It then changes to beef and horse properties as you travel along the road. Slowly you’ll notice the scenery transform into cool, shady, quiet roads and natural rainforest as you move closer to the Carawirry property.
Carawirry border’s Chichester State Forest on two sides so the possibilities for bike riding and bushwalking are endless. Once you arrive they are confident you’ll be sorry to leave.
