Guest Reviews

• Rebecca (10/5): Incredibly enjoyable relaxing - Beautiful relaxing spot great little club few minutes away great food great vibe The little house is fabulous has everything
• Michael (10/5): -
• Alexandra (10/5): Dog & family haven - We are now making Telegraph Cottages our regular stopover when travelling through the East coast. It’s a haven for family and dogs alike. Nested in the eucalyptus forest, it’s an observatory for stars at night and wildlife in daytime. Kangaroos, goats, welcoming and playful doggies and a delightful hosting family. Comfy bed and spotless room - What else? Just wished we stayed longer each time! Nothing
• Stephanie (10/5): Excellent comfort for a family of 3 -
• Rachel (10/5): -
• Christine (7/5): Clean room. - The owner was very helpful and responsive Room was small and third bed was a put u up so not very comfortable for an adult. There were no cooking facilities in the room unlike the other studio apartments at this resort.
• Joanna (10/5): -
• Karen (10/5): - Such a beautiful place, relaxing, friendly and welcoming. Everything you could possibly need to re energise and relax Everything was lovely
• Denise (8/5): Overall, I had a lovely and relaxing stay. - I liked that the dogs were made very welcome and were able to interact with other dogs. I loved the mowed lawns and the general presentation of the property. The Nest was neat and clean. The cooking area could be cleaned up a bit more as there was a lot of dust and the camp stove could have done with a good clean.
• Juergen (10/5): -
• Gail (9/5): -
• Anett (10/5): -
• Christina (8/5): Beautiful cottage set in a peaceful farm setting - Loved the location hidden among the gum trees in a lovely spot. The cottage was well appointed, beautifully decked out and very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again! The only criticism is that the spa motor came on at 2am in the morning and the hum of the motor kept us awake for quite awhile so we didn't get a very restful night!
• Mikayla (10/5): It is exactly as advertised, a retreat! - We had an amazing experience at this retreat and it far exceeded our expectations! It was quiet and the surrounding forest was so beautiful. The pool is the prettiest one I’ve ever seen and was so refreshing. They also had a jacuzzi, table tennis table, bbq & slack line. We loved being able to wander around the large pond and feed the goats. I’m a huge dog lover so being able to bring my own dog and play with the owners dogs was the cherry on top. Cannot speak more highly of this retreat. No complaints! The host even gave us some bread from their own house because we forgot to purchase some with our eggs. They went above and beyond and I really hope to stay again in the near future.
• Sylvia (8/5): -
• Brody (10/5): - Country feel
• Lolita (10/5): - Beautiful grounds and setting, peaceful. Excellent stay with a dog. A/C / heater wasn't working but not a big issue with a wood burning fire.
• Belynda (10/5): Beautiful and relaxing -
• Diane (10/5): -
• Ian (8/5): -
• Amanda (10/5): Perfect getaway - The place was spacious with plenty to do around the property. If you want peaceful tranquillity, its the perfect getaway. Everything was perfect. Bed in master was hard, apparently, but that isn't their fault 🥰
• Lucinda (10/5): -
• Abigail (10/5): -
• Julie (10/5): Highly recommended. - The property was perfect for us. It was quiet and comfortable as we were travelling through the area. My husband had a medical event while staying and we were very appreciative of the extra care and attention given by our hosts. Thank you. Nothing.
• Verity H (9/5): - Loved the spa. Cute cottage. Great place to stay with your dog.
• Alan (7/5): -
• Alan (10/5): -
• Danny (10/5): Absolutely gorgeous location! Wish we stayed longer. Absolutely recommend for anybody!! - Location was absolutely gorgeous. The cabin, the gardens, the people. Huge gardens to enjoy. Pet friendly. Beautiful cabin, decor, bed!! Nothing
• Cinnamon (8/5): Great place to stay for a quiet and peaceful get away. -
• Shantanu (10/5): -
• Glenda (10/5): -
• Kellie (10/5): Very peaceful and comfy. Pool and spa just heavenly. Wish I had more time . - N/A
• Tanja (9/5): - Beautiful grounds. Super cute dogs. Lovely pool. The mattresses was a bit too hard.
• Ashleigh (8/5): - Beautiful property with antique interior design. Nice location for peace and quiet.
• MARISSA (10/5): Exceeded my expectations and very comfortable and welcoming. - The owner we met was so friendly and welcoming and the owners 2 dogs were exactly the same. We had the Green Cottage and it was very cosy and clean , that I could imagine living there myself :-). The bed was exceptionally comfortable. I wished we could have stayed another night. The cottage had everything you needed. There was a lovely front porch and a back deck to sit on. Highly recommend. There was nothing I didn't like.
• Preshie Owen (10/5): - We loved everything. The house we stayed in has a beautiful bathroom with shower and a tub. Spa on the deck and there is a deck front and back. Full kitchen with HIV and oven, dishwasher. It's also pet friendly and our dogs have had the best time with their new friends Lenny and Maggie. Can't recommend highly enough and also very close to town and the nearest Coles supermarket. Also table and chairs inside and outside, air con is brilliant and a barbecue outside on the deck. There is everything you could need here and more
• Alexandra (10/5): Um local para relaxar - É um local maravilhoso! Um local para relaxar Não teve o que eu não tenha gostado
• PixieDust (10/5): - Beautiful property. Couldn't have felt more welcomed.
• Cristina (9/5): Lovely comfortable cottage in a beautiful location - The Byre is a lovely cottage, nicely furnished, with a comfortable king size bed and a nice large bathroom. It is set on beautiful grounds, with nice walks and animals. The outdoor hot tub is very pleasant with nice views. Good to have a coffee machine with coffee capsules. Given the remoteness of the property, it would be useful to have a few essentials provided such as milk, tea, salt and pepper.
• Jenny (10/5): Great for friendly dogs - Dogs allowed to be off leash on the property grounds
• David F (8/5): -
• Susan (4/5): Very basic bed and shower - The grounds were very natural and well maintained Very average for the price. I was under the impression that we had a special deal on a cottage but the one room in the Weeretreat was very basic . No one met us or even spoke to us until we were trying to return the key next morning. Won’t be going back
• Ewart (9/5): -
• John (10/5): -
• Kris (8/5): Great place to stay out of town. Beautiful quiet bush area with lovely facilities. - Lovely cottage and grounds. Room was clean and comfortable and the staff were friendly and accommodating. Distance from facilities.
• Carleen (10/5): Would definitely stay here again. - Hospitality, environment, tranquility.
• Natasha (10/5): - Excellent communication from the host. Beautiful location. Spacious, pet friendly cottage.
• Laurence (10/5): We felt welcomed when we arrived and were encouraged to enjoy and explore the property. Our little Dachshund, Bonnie, l - We found it quiet and relaxing! It felt like coming home. We didn’t stay for longer.
• Phan (1/5): Not happy, We were double booked and had to find new accommodation for the night. - Spoke to the host Ned the day before and also got a confirmation text the morning of our stay. So after a long drive from Brisbane. Unfortunately we were double booked with another couple who arrived first. They offered for us to stay in the same house as the caretaker in one of the spare room or to stay at another motel. We chose to stay at another motel with our dog. Ned arrange another option with a motel in Kempsey.
• Sandra (10/5): Peaceful surrounds, perfect hosts, my ideal place to stay - Everything was exceptional at Telegraph Retreat: from the moment of arrival when I took the wrong driveway and Cristina came to help, to the gorgeous setting, the friendliness of the hosts, the cleanliness and spacious rooms, the quiet serenity of the place, the caring nature of the hosts ..... aahhh SO many things I loved about this place. Especially grateful they allow pets. My dog could roam & run freely and interacted with the hosts dogs playfully. This is one place i really hope I can return to in future but for a longer stay. Nothing. Everything was perfect.
• Samantha (8/5): -
• trudy (9/5): A true gem - We stopped over on our way back to Sydney at the delightful telegraph retreat. It was such a beautiful relaxing location. We were sorry we hadn't booked a few days to enjoy the pool, lovely gardens or feeding the animals. Our dog loved roaming around the property. I would highly recommend Telegraph Retreat to couples , families or friends just needing to relax and unwind
• Danilo (10/5): This place is unique - superb experience. - Fantastic stay, the location is amazing and particularly so if you're looking for a serene, calm place surrounded by nature and animals. Short trip to Port Macquarie and Crescent Head. Stayed in "The Nest" which adds an extra charm to the experience (spa bath). Kids will love it and your dog as well (in case you one). Cristina and Ned were super friendly, can't wait to go back. This place is unique. Nothing. Everything was nice. Exceeded our expectations. Great stay.
• Melissa (9/5): -
• Lyn (10/5): -
• Jocelyn (10/5): -
• Tamara (10/5): Beautiful property, cosy cottage with everything I needed. Can’t wait to stay again - Everything!! Couldn’t fault it.
• Daniel (8/5): - Absolutely gorgeous grounds. Our Whippet had a wonderful time roaming around Hosts were super friendly and accomadating The cottage was a little small for 3 adults.
• Denise (10/5): -
• Peta Michael (10/5): -
• Michael (9/5): Excellent - Very peaceful and comfortable Some milk in the fridge on arrival would be great
• Rima (9/5): -
• chris (9/5): -
• MW (10/5): Perfect 2 night stop at lovely farm with great hosts - Location was perfect and the owners were really friendly and helpful. The Weetreat was great for our needs and the facilities were everything we needed. We will look to book here again next time we need accomodation in the Port McQuarie area
• Aaron (10/5): Great spot and hosts that went above and beyond. Thank you! - Fantastic hosts and their dogs! Fantastic spot, super quiet and awesome hosts. Their dogs were super friendly and our pup was so excited to hang out with them.

• Pavel (9/5): -
• Leanne (10/5): Romantic getaway - The location was very private, quiet and the cottage was cute and the wood fire magical. The bed was amazing and loved the hot tub. Will definitely be back
• Xing (10/5): -
• Keith (9/5): Unique rural setting - Ambience Nothing
• Susanne (9/5): Superb - The location, the facilities, the goats, the friendly birds, Lenny and Maggie, the peace and quiet, the spa bath, the house was well equipped, the beds were comfy. There was a lot to like about our stay Very dusty under furniture, spiderwebs on the architraves, fireplace full of ash from previous guests, house keys do not lock from the outside, and spa filter is quite noisy when trying to sleep We understand it's a farmhouse and so can look past these things (especially since the good outweighs the bad), but from a hospitality trained background, these were our observations
• Aimee (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic, quiet, everything needed to break up a long journey with a cat. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!!! Leaving!
• Russell (10/5): Exceptional - great location , great room and staff thanks very much I felt very welcome
• James (10/5): Exceptional - Close to highway Unreal spot
• Tracy (8/5): Very good - Perfect for our purpose of relocating with 2 small dogs. Our car was fully loaded with our possessions and felt safe parked right outside our accommodation. I would have happily stayed a week in a bigger property as the grounds are lovely. Decor is a little tired but functional.
• Peter (8/5): Enjoyed the overall experience - Lovely setting in the bush, bed was comfortable. Shower was a little bit tight to get into.
• Marcelo (9/5): Superb -
• Eliza (10/5): Exceptional - Comfortable, clean and peaceful! Nothing
• Chandler (10/5): Exceptional - Quiet location, friendly hosts, country style cottage with wood heater, luxury bathroom and super comfy bed.

• Julie (9/5): Beautiful dog friendly accommodation. - Breakfast hamper. Very dog friendly. Cosy fireplace. Comfortable bed. Beautiful surroundings. Easy drive to Port & local attractions. Helpful staff. Flooding shower but it was remedied as soon as we advised them. A cosy bathrobe would have been much appreciated during winter.
• Bradley (10/5): Perfect stay - Absolutely everything top notch couldn’t fault it
• Bevan (8/5): Very good -
• Amanda (10/5): Great communication from the staff. Highly recommend - The room was cute, comfortable very welcoming. Nothing
• Charlton (10/5): Exceptional - Clean property. Cottage feeling. Very friendly staff. Calming atmosphere.
• Andrew (7/5): Quick visit - Nice, modern A bit expensive, broken shower.
• Chuan (9/5): We would recommend to stay longer than a day for family and pets to play together. - We & Mocha (cavoodle) love homy style surrounding with nature, and we could hear roasters sing and their dogs are so lovely and behaved. Huge space to walk around, fresh air and trees. We parked in front of the room which is very near and convenient, they have all basic needs which good enough for us during the stay. Nothing we did not like. We appreciate how it looks like and would recommend to stay longer than a day for pets to play around with roasters, sheep and dogs
