    Such a beautiful cottage in a stunning country setting. I loved the comfortable bed & pillows, the large bathroom with a bath and soft towels. The kitchen had everything needed & the food for breakfast was fresh & really good quality. The hot tub...

Telegraph Retreat
Award winning cottages, set among native bushland in the Port Macquarie countryside. Share this beautiful rural retreat with the kangaroos, kookaburras and wallabies as you relax in the spa or enjoy a glass of locally produced wine by the wood-burning fireplace, in your own private accommodation. Telegraph Retreat Cottages offer three secluded cottages, spread over nine acres of land, you will enjoy hotel style luxury surrounded by nature, an abundance of wildlife and cute farm animals. Whether you are seeking a romantic couples retreat, a family farm stay or a great location for a group of friends or family to come together, we have the perfect space for you! Nestled amongst the trees, yet only five minutes off the Pacific Highway and fifteen minutes north of the thriving NSW coastal town of Port Macquarie and thirty minutes from Crescent Head, Telegraph Retreat Cottages provide a selection of traditional Australian Federation style cottages for you to unwind and enjoy the moment or explore the region in comfort.
After 17 years of living in Port Macquarie we began searching for a tree change to escape the rat race, we stumbled upon this rural retreat in December 2021 and knew it was going to be our home. Telegraph Retreat cottages have been providing luxury farm-stay accommodation for over 10 years and we are so excited to now share it with you! We are learning so much about the land and we look forward to providing a high quality accommodation option in our serene surroundings. It has been a life changing experience for our family and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Our guest books are filling up full of happy customers so we think its working so far!
Telegraph Retreat Cottages are situated between the Cairncross State Forest to the south and the Ballengarra State Forest to the north. The picturesque Wilson River is a five minute drive down the road and activities include waterskiing, fishing, swimming, kayaking, mountain bike riding, bush walking, four-wheel-driving, exploring streams, creeks and picnicking. We are surrounded by other rural properties, wildlife, farm animals and the Pacific Highway is an easy five minute drive from the property, along sealed roads. The thriving tourist town of Port Macquarie is a 15 minute drive south, with many attractions and holiday activities for people of all ages. Experience the pristine coastline, national parks and a multitude of cafes and restaurants, art and cultural experiences. Visit Stoney Park for an adventurous day out, Ricardos Tomatoes and Strawberry Farm for a fruit picking experience or the excellent wildlife park at the Billabong Zoo! Check out Bago Maze and winery in the Wauchope hinterland, eat chocolate, drink wine and watch the kids play. Explore the region or relax in your cottage, the choice is yours!
