5 acres hosted by Anja L.
1 lodging site
Morinokoe is a 5 acre 'one planet' lifestyle vision, set in the peaceful, secure, rural residential community of Woombah, bordering the Bundjalung National Park and just 5 minutes drive from famous 'Woody Head' camp ground and Iluka's surf beaches.
For paddling and fishing, it's a few hundred metres from a public jetty to the Clarence River and just a few minutes drive to the Esk river (a unique waterway that tracks through the national park). The land itself is 2/3 natural forest, with fruit trees and permaculture inspired garden design and cleared areas with space for parking, playing and camping.
The (two room) caravan is newly renovated with a large outdoor patio area for dining and cooking on your campfire. There is no power supplied to the caravan, but lighting is provided by solar lights around the site. Access to power is provided at the main house.
It's really nice balance between convenience, security (friendly neighbourhood) and accessibility and the peace and quiet of being deep in the forest (where you can walk or ride your bike straight into the national park). Relax around the firepit in the evenings.
There is access to a toilet, shower and drinking water supply. There is a Jamie Oliver grill for cooking at the table, and a fire pit on hand as well. There are basic cooking implements, cutlery and crockery as well as a large green water tank for washing and drinking.
There is a portable toilet now installed outside the caravan for convenience.
The outside shower area is at the main house, and offers some, but not complete privacy.
We have rubbish and composting facilities.

The 'Retro Forest Caravan' is a private space located behind the main house on the edge of the forest - perfect for couples looking for rest, contemplation and rejuvenation.
It consists of a renovated, two room covered caravan with a large front patio, with a sliding door to a covered back deck that looks out to a large, grassy area before opening out to the forest (that extends out to the Bundjalung wilderness area). There's an undercover camping toilet easily accessible from the main bedroom and a (town water) hose beside the deck for wash-up and cool showers.
It's an older caravan (not lockable) and the queen bed is a little short due to the windowsill over the head space (see photo) - so please keep this in mind if you are exceptionally tall!
There are two fire pits - with plenty of firewood to collect in the area and a covered area stocked with dry kindling for your convenience.
While we encourage people to experience it as 'non electric' retreat - we can provide a power cord from the main house for charging devices etc. if required. It is overall an experience in nature - with sounds of birds all day, and rustles in the night (echidnas spotted recently!), as well as mosquitos (net provided) and leaches in the forest in wet weather.
