Tinonee Cottages
Tinonee Cottages, the chance to take time out from this fast-paced, stress-filled life of today and, as the lyrics of a well-known song say, step back in time. Two very unique accommodation options await you in the beautiful Manning Valley of New South Wales, a mere three and a half hours north of the bustling busyness of Sydney. Tinonee Cottages
Artisans on the Hill
Regardless of whether you just need a cosy base from which to unlock the secrets of the magnificent Manning Valley, or unleash your hidden creative streak in an Artisans Workshop, Artisans on the Hill is the ideal choice. Artisans on the Hill has three guest rooms, each themed to a Tasmanian timber. They are spacious and comfortable, airy (and air conditioned should you like to use it) - a home away from home.

Manning House
Manning House is a fully self-contained federation home with plenty of character, plenty of space and plenty of potential for your visit to Wingham.
It offers you the ultimate proximity of the township (2 minute walk), with the freedom of a run-of-house accommodation sleeping 6-8+, to come and go as you want, a great base if you are taking in a cheesemaking workshop or one of Bent on Food's gourmet tours. It is like the privacy of your own home away from home.
Nundoobah Retreat
Nundoobah Retreat is a unique and luxurious haven from which to completely escape the pressures of everyday life.
Nundoobah Retreat consists of two romantic cottages and associated guest facilities set on the banks of the magnificent Dawson River. Surrounded by 1000 acres of natural bushland, Nundoobah Retreat derives its name from the abundant supply of native Grass Trees in the area. (Nundoobah meaning "Place of the Grass Tree" in the local Biripi language.)
Nundoobah Retreat is a luxury B&B with a difference. There is a distinctly Aboriginal presence both in and around the cottages, illustrated through stunning Aboriginal carvings, paintings and sculpture. Primarily a retreat for couples, Nundoobah Retreat is the perfect setting for romance, relaxation and rejuvenation.
Why not stay a weekend and spend some time relaxing with a book in a beautiful setting or exploring the Dawson River in a double kayak; take a walk or mountain bike through the restored logging trails of the adjoining bushland. Or for the more active, there is a synthetic grass tennis court, a small putting green, and it is a 5 minute drive to a par 71, 18 hole golf course.
