The chalets

Each chalet is a one-room timber storybook — four-poster bed, kitchenette, and a verandah pointed at the trees. You can hear the village church bells but not much else; town is a five-minute stroll downhill.

Bellingen’s cafes, bookshops and river swimming are on your doorstep; Dangar Falls and Dorrigo’s World-Heritage rainforest — including the Crystal Shower Falls walk — are 25 minutes up the mountain.
