    AS this is a ECO cottage remember the water is tank and pressure in showers can be a little less than normal.

    Hosts very friendly and left lots of extra touches in the cabin. Lovely log fireplace. Beautiful surroundings with birds and bush. Very quiet place to relax and unwind.

    Nothing at all

    I absolutely loved my stay at Uralba, what a wonderful place. Rick & Julie have put so much thought and effort into creating an experience that is something special, a sense of peace that you can't find anywhere else. From the warm welcome, the beautiful cabin Rick has built, to the momentos from their travels, Julie's delicious home made condiments, swinging in the hammock on the balcony, and listening to the sounds of the surrounding bush, I will definitely be back!

    Nothing not to like.

    The beautifully equipped and sustainable Kookaburra Cottage was a true retreat, effortlessly blending comfort with eco-consciousness. The name Uralba, meaning “home between hills,” captures its essence perfectly, as it’s nestled within serene landscapes that invite you to connect deeply with nature. Its location provides easy access to some of the region’s most stunning waterfalls—Minyon, Protesters, Whian Whian, and the magical Hanging Rock. Experiencing each of these was a privilege! A thoughtfully curated book in the cottage guides you through these gems, enriching the experience even more. The locally sourced honey and fresh herbal tea added such a delightful touch, making our stay feel warm, grounded, and rejuvenating.

    Oh, we loved the place so much! This is exactly what you need if you want to get away from crowds and stress. A quiet place with beautiful interior, with a bedroom, kitchen, living area, a spacious bathroom and a big terrace with BBQ facilities and siting and dining areas. We had all our meals there, on the terrace, listening to the birds and enjoying the serenity of the place. The hosts, Julie and Rick, are amazing. They sent us so much helpful information about the property in advance, like how to get there and what we were going to find there. They also provided us with a lot of different teas and honey, real ground coffee and different pots to make coffee. The kitchen had everything to cook and eat meals: stove, oven, kettle, pans, utensils, different plates and bowls, etc, even baking trays for those who want to roast or bake something. Julie and Rick also gave us some advice as to what we could see around, and Rick took us to show us koalas sleeping on the trees next to the property. Also, Julie and Rick put a lot of effort in creating a thick and detailed guidebook about their property available to guests, including the history of the place and how they built it, and so much useful information about the surroundings. We had a wonderful stay and we will come back for a longer period.

    The view was compromised..there was a wonderful outlook behind the banana tree. We love a view! The bed wasn't very comfortable..too soft, a bit dippy. I did feel the tariff was very expensive, for a one bedroom off grid cottage.

    The wood fire was fabulous. We loved the little pots of homemade things like chutney.

    The location and tropical bushland was so serene. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. The Cottage contained everything you need. It is located in a koala habitat. Saw 2 koalas and one with a baby! Very cute. It was so peaceful and there is a large balcony to enjoy the views.

    Everything is good. Maybe a small sensor light in the bathroom at night would be a good idea.

    A peaceful clean and comfortable place suitable for people who love nature. Julie and Rick have been doing amazing tasks on the property and land. Sweet thoughtfulness is everywhere in the cottage. Found 3 wild koalas up high on gum trees when walking on the road. Definitely love to come back to stay.
