Discover Avalon: Your Riverside Nature Getaway
Escape to Avalon, a magical retreat in the Hastings hinterland of NSW, just 5 hours from Sydney, 90 minutes from Port Macquarie, and 3 hours from Newcastle or Coffs Harbour. Nestled on 400 acres of pristine wilderness, Avalon invites you to explore, unwind, and reconnect with nature.
Choose your ideal off the grid escape:
- The Tree House: A luxurious yet simple retreat, perfect for couples and small families.
- The Shepherd’s Hut: Glamping at its finest, combining comfort and adventure.
- Riverside Camping: Pitch your tent or set up your camper trailer at scenic riverside spots (caravans not permitted).
Nature on Your Doorstep
The bass are aplenty, there are platypus in every pool so you are guaranteed that magical moment seeing these enigmatic creatures in the wild. If you are lucky and roam high in the hills you might even spot a koala!
Farm Life
Our farm animals are friendly – feed the alpacas, stroke the silky sides of Angel the cuddle cow, feel the healing breath of the horses and lean against their sweet smelling sides. Of course, feed the chooks and collect the eggs – taste the difference!
Sustainable Living, Off the Grid
At Avalon, we live in harmony with nature. Powered by the sun, sustained by rainwater, and committed to waste minimalism, we model sustainable living in action. Whether you’re seeking peace, adventure, or inspiration to “get away from it all,” Avalon is your haven.

Discover why so many guests return year after year. Avalon isn’t just a destination; it’s an unforgettable experience that restores your spirit and deepens your connection to the natural world.
Book your escape today and experience the magic for yourself.
We had an incredibly relaxing time and can’t wait to come back & explore more.
The Tree House
Staying with us
Our luxurious cedar cabin, The Tree House provides all the comforts of home. Perched above our main river flat you can gaze in wonder at star studded skies by night, and watch the animals graze by day. Light & airy, The Tree House is the ultimate in comfort and relaxation - 300 thread count sheets, huge sofa to sink into, continental breakfast provided & a fireplace for romantic winter nights. Our guests talk about their stays with us (with love) years after they leave . . .
The Shepherd's Hut
Staying with us
The Shepherd's Hut is small but perfectly formed! Nestled by the river, with its own gas powered outdoor shower and long drop toilet, it is glamping at its best.
Absolute privacy, riverfront real estate for those who like the wild open spaces but love a comfortable mattress and a roof and the little luxuries of life.
Camping
Staying with us
We welcome self sufficient bush campers who take only photos and leave nothing but footprints. If you are looking for an idyllic, peaceful place to reconnect with family & friends, we promise you absolute privacy, utter freedom and room to roam. Camping at Avalon is a 4WD only experience and not suitable for caravans. This is a wilderness style experience for those with a reverence for nature and respect for our beautiful property and animals.
