- "The accommodation itself was small but didn't feel so because space was well used and we had access to the lovely outdoor deck and green space. The host was very responsive and helpful but also respected our privacy. The location was beautiful and a short drive to many south coast attractions. We would stay again." - "Kitchen and lounge area a good size for two but the bedroom was a bit small. Short drive to the town and beaches. Quiet location however the dogs did bark some evenings. "

Feel like everyone wants something from you at the moment? Escape it all at Banjo. Deep in subtropical rainforest, this bush icon even overlooks a distant waterfall. Yes, waterfall. You heard that right.

There's a 650m hike to the cabin from the carpark. Luggage wheelbarrows provided.

Check in 3pm
Late check out at 11am
Because, sleep-ins.

The space
The experience is curated to help you slow down, be mindful and reconnect with nature. Each step, from where you park your car and the walk along the path to the cabin, to hand-grinding your (single origin) coffee beans in the morning, our Field Guide, collection of cassette tapes and more, is designed to transform what’s normally routine into a ritual and help you fully switch off.

The cabin is designed to make you feel in the landscape, not on it. With oversized windows, a luxury queen bed, a 2-burner gas stove, mini-fridge, kitchen specced by famous chefs and a private bathroom with hot shower, you’ll have everything you need and nothing you don’t.

Guest access
Before your stay, you’ll receive a digital Field Guide with everything you need to find your cabin and settle in.

Our cabins are self check-in. When you arrive, park at the allocated carpark with your cabin’s name, throw your pack on your back or grab a luggage trolley, and follow the marked path to your cabin.

Make sure to pack sensible footwear for the walk to the cabin, as well as wet weather gear in case the forecast shifts. This spot requires a hike from the parking area, so having comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing for all seasons will help you make the most of your time in nature.

Take the walk slow, breathe it in, and enjoy the view.

Other things to note
This is an off grid experience. What does that mean? There is a walk from the car to the cabin, pack light (we provide a cart to help). There’s no-one to deliver TP if you run out. And there could be a bug or two around.

What else does it mean? You’ll feel a million miles away but can get there in a short drive. You’ll have next level nature and no-one to share it with. You’ll have a curated experience to help you slow down and disconnect unlike any other out there.

We hope you enjoy it. Since Day 1 it’s always been about nature for us, we hope we can help you find what you’re looking for out there.
