Beautiful Country!
We spent the night at Goombaragin Eco Retreat for a celebration trip. Not only was the scenery out of this world, but the assistance from John and Jan (caretakers) was also amazing. They made sure we had everything we needed and felt comfortable in our surroundings. Although we camped, we had access to a beautiful chalet which I will definitely book next time (those shower views!!)Access to a secluded and breathtaking beach, walks, the best stars at night, lookout, campfires, and barbecues. We loved it and will be back!
A beautiful spot for pure relaxation
We had a wonderful stay in the eco-tent. The view from our tent was stunning and we could even watch the sunrise from our bed! The tent was well kept and very clean and good quality towels and linen were provided. The outdoor shower is beautiful. Such a great stay to get back to nature and stop still for a few days. The beach is beautiful and sunsets are amazing. Kathleen was lovely and was helpful. A wonderful stay!Great place, great hosts
Spent 4 nights camping here at one of the 2 private campsites and had a fantastic time. The scenery, beach, and environment are just so nice and we really had a relaxed time. Hosts John and Kathleen are terrific and we did so enjoy their hospitality around the communal fire, learning to play the monopoly card game and meeting Mr P the python.If you ever find yourself up this way then a stay at Goombaragin should definitely be on your list. Thanks for a great stay John and Kathleen.
