Recharge at Heartland, a hidden sanctuary nestled in the rainforest hinterlands of Byron Bay. Immerse yourself in peace and tranquility with breathtaking valley and escarpment views from our North-facing spaces.
15-minute drive from Mullumbimby, and 35 minutes from Byron Bay, Heartland is the perfect spot to explore the inner and outer beauty of nature. The lush terrain seamlessly combines level and gently sloping landscapes, adorned with a rich tapestry of temperate, subtropical, and tropical plants. Our borders extend to Goonengerry National Park, providing a backdrop of pristine wilderness.
Heartland is home to vibrant birdlife, diverse wildlife, and our beautiful horses Astra and Zion. We also have 6 Kenyan Top Bar Bee Hives and have an apitherapy healing bee hut available by appointment—visit peacefulgrowing.org/the-honey-hut to learn more.
Guests can enjoy our sparkling lagoon-style swimming pool, gym, community kitchen, and bathhouse. Please note that there are a couple of permeant residents living on the land and they are private spaces. Heart Hall is the community area for guests to be comfortable in.
We ask everyone who comes to the land to adhere to our 3 agreements.
Care for self, each other and nature. There are basic common sense understandings of how these can be expressed and we encourage our guests to enquire within themselves what it means to them.
This is a peaceful sanctuary and it’s not a rowdy party campsite.

Water & Weather: Unfiltered spring water, safe for drinking in our experience, is available for refilling at the stone bathhouse. Please bring your own water canisters. The weather in the mountains is cooler than by the coast, so we recommend bringing warm clothing, wet weather gear, and gumboots to ensure a comfortable stay.
