Welcome to our river retreat. Ideal for those seeking privacy, peace and solitude away from the socials and technology. Kingfisher's Hut sits on 80 acres of our 240 acre property, on a high bank overlooking the Macdonald River as it makes it way towards the confluence with the Namoi River. Ideally suited for a couple (children and fur babies also welcome) or small groups, and those who are new to a nature escape holiday. A small solar system provides lighting (but not recharging of devices). Our insulated cabin provides a comfortable double bed and pot belly stove for the colder months. Our bush kitchen provides your basic needs with a BBQ, 12 volt fridge, and fully equipped camp kitchen. Our open fire is set up for cooking or for just sitting, relaxing and staring into the flames. Our bush bathroom provides a toilet and wood fired hot shower. Or you might chose to relax in a hot bath overlooking the river. We welcome nature lovers and offer activities such as bush walking, bird watching, native wildlife, swimming, picnicking, kayaking (double kayak provided), catch and release fishing (seasonal), and big open night skies for astronomy enthusiasts. We are a small farming enterprise and currently establishing aquaculture (yabby) ponds and can offer an introductory tour to those who are interested.As an introductory offer, we have discounted our daily rate by 50% for the first three bookings!! Normally $200/night. Kingfisher's Hut sits within 80 acres of bush land, overlooking the MacDonald River. You will have exclusive use of the whole 80 acres and enjoy nearly one km of river access for walking, swimming, kayaking and fishing (when in season), all to yourself. Access to hut is via a well-maintained farm track and suitable for most 2WD vehicles. Our section of river contains swimming holes, sandy beaches, deep holes for fishing and a section of rapids which are brilliant in hot weather. There are picnic spots and tracks for bush walking.
