Very peaceful location, easy drive to lakes and beaches. Lovely room with huge ensuite bathroom, comfortable bed, and great breakfast in the morning.
AustraliaWe had great time and experience. The room was very clean and comfortable with cute and sweet decoration. The view outside the house was very beautiful. Cathy made us feel very welcomed and prepared very nice breakfast. Nice driving from the accomodation to the beaches nearby. We would like to go back next time when we plan a trip there.
AustraliaBillabong is Exceptional b & b fairly close to the highway but very quiet and peaceful.
AustraliaBeautiful gardens, cosy, friendly, country-get-away feel to the place. Loved watching the neighbours sheep wandering past in the early evening. Was peaceful and beautiful with plenty of areas to wander in nature.
AustraliaCath went over and above to insure we had everything we needed. She was so knowledgeable of the places we planned to travel She cooked us a fabulous dinner and we dined with other guests. That was great! The house is beautiful...so quaint and nicely decorated. Slept with doors and windows open. So peaceful. Wildlife great! If we ever travel this way again would absolutely stay here.
United States of AmericaThe engagement of the proprietor and her sister and friend, the architecture, modern and fully supplied bath, excellent vegetarian meal, with veggies from their organic garden, the kookaburra walking us up with his laugh in the morning... really.
United States of AmericaThe cabin was a good size. Very clean and well presented. Everything comfortable. Well set up. Well situated in village and quiet.
AustraliaCath is wonderfully accommodative. She went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable and relaxing as possible. It is a lovely property and I have never slept better
AustraliaSuch a great little find on our way to Northern NSW for Christmas. Cath is such a good host. We will be back.
AustraliaKath (the host) offers delicious vegetarian/pescatarian home cooked dinners on request. It was the perfect home away from home.

Cath x
Hi I am Cath and I moved (March 2017) to Boolambayte from Inner city Sydney for a tree change. I fell in love with this beautiful home and land and feel very lucky to have have found it. I shared my home in Sydney for many years through a popular online site and really loved to host the wonderful people that I met - They came as strangers and left as friends so thought that I would do more of it. I hope that is how you feel too after your visit. Billabong Cottage is a dream come true for me and I am so happy to be able to share it with new friends.
We are close to a range of lakes with many activities available. You will see lots of lakes as you drive around The Lakes Way. The beaches around here are nothing short of stunning and numerous!!! White sands, clean clear water and some are patrolled for your safety. We have beach umbrella, chairs, rugs, towels, marquees for you to use for a day of comfort, Cute country towns like Nabiac, Stroud and Dungog are close by as is touristy beachy towns like Forster and Tuncurry that have everything you need. We are next door to National Parks with the tallest tree in NSW down the road but are off the beaten track on a country lane - take a break. There are lots of local markets every weekend to buy local produce and handicrafts.
