The Bangalow Barn in the Byron Hinterland

Whole-property Byron Bay hinterland escape near Bangalow village: the Bangalow Barn plus the Barnita, sleeping 8 across 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. Heated magnesium pool, 3-person infrared sauna, fire pit, spring-fed creek swimming hole, claw-foot tubs and farmland views. A restored designer barn and handcrafted shipping-container conversion for groups, families and celebrations. A minute to Bangalow village, twenty minutes to Byron Bay.

The Bangalow Barn was built from the property’s original horse stables and styled, inside and out, from recycled materials — the owners’ vision of a sustainable, eco-friendly oasis that still delivers every luxury your group could want on a coastal escape. Across the two dwellings, the Barn and the Barnita sleep eight over four bedrooms, so everyone in your party has a beautiful room of their own. Reverse-cycle air conditioning and heating run throughout, giving everyone an extra level of comfort whatever the season.

Beyond the wide, spacious decked yard, Byron Creek and the surrounding farmland roll away until your whole group can’t help but feel miles from civilisation. That stillness is deepened by your own private outdoor shower and two vintage claw-foot bath tubs, yours throughout the stay, so no one has to leave this slice of paradise to keep enjoying it. There is a very luxurious indoor bathroom for guests to use as well.

While you wander the heavenly, architecturally designed gardens, follow the river-stone steps down to the private swimming hole in the freshwater of Byron Creek, fed by natural springs upstream — the perfect place to close a warm Northern Rivers day.

For a further measure of luxury, the group can take turns unwinding in the three-person infrared sauna after a day exploring the hinterland and beyond. Then step inside and relax beside the French-designed suspended rotating wood fireplace with a glass of wine, or spend a beautiful evening around the rustic outdoor fire pit with unlimited firewood supplied.

Each room has its own ceiling fan, and with the beautiful open-plan living, double-insulated walls and roof, the breeze offers ample eco-friendly cooling throughout your stay.

Beside the Barn stands the Bangalow Barnita, a handcrafted shipping-container conversion. This one-of-a-kind tiny house is lined floor to ceiling in parquetry woodwork for a seamless flow throughout. With its high-end custom finish, quality appliances, super-soft linen, and splashes of colour amongst the rustic decor, the Barnita is luxury on every level. Its own ensuite and kitchenette open the way to indoor-outdoor living, and a movable dining table lets you enjoy a cosy dinner inside or out on the undercover deck. The sub-tropical climate invites endless hours on the expansive deck — stretched out on the movable daybed or in one of the two hanging chairs. The hardest decision you’ll face is leaving this hidden oasis you get to call all yours during your stay. The antique footed bathtub on the outdoor deck adds another layer of luxury to this unique space — the perfect spot for a cool drink in summer or a lovely glass of wine in winter.

A couple of things that come with our rural setting, so there are no surprises:
- Being in the country, the odd insect or animal may find its way in or around the property. We do everything we can to keep this to a minimum, but the Australian bush is ultimately out of our hands.
- Services to the house (Starlink and the like) can occasionally drop out here. We do all we can to keep everything running at full capacity throughout your stay.

A breach of these rules means immediate dismissal from the property and loss of any remaining booking.

Please check for all personal belongings before you check out — anything left behind can’t be our responsibility.

Arrival & departure:
- Check-in is from 3pm and check-out is by 10am.
- Children are welcome.
