Bangalow Guesthouse

Our Christmas break was made extra special staying in this beautiful historic house tastefully decorated for Christmas, in a picturesque setting overlooking the creek. Our room No. 6 overlooking the trees and lawn down to the creek was beautifully furnished with very comfortable king size bed plus ensuite. We felt at home where there was plenty of tables and chairs out on the large verandah to eat your meals prepared in the well-equipped kitchen. The large lounge room with beautiful art was a place to relax in the evening. Our cars were parked in their own parking bays. Yes, I thoroughly recommend you treating yourself to this wonderful unique experience.

I had a truly wonderful experience at the Bangalow Guesthouse. This beautifully restored heritage property is luxurious and full of charm, blending historic character with modern comforts throughout. My room was elegant and thoughtfully designed with premium bedding and stylish finishes, and the peaceful gardens provide the perfect backdrop for relaxation. The location couldn’t be better — right in lovely Bangalow, just a short stroll to boutique shops, cafés, and restaurants, and only minutes by car from Byron Bay’s stunning beaches. Everything about my stay exceeded expectations, and I can’t wait to return!

Bangalow Guesthouse is such a beautiful, historic place to stay in the Byron Hinterland. Originally established in the early 1900s, the property has been lovingly restored and now offers boutique, heritage-style accommodation across the main Queenslander homestead and a collection of private cottages and guest suits in the main house. I was recently gifted a two night stay here, and it was such a relaxing escape for my husband and me. We stayed in one of the private cottages and it was incredibly peaceful and quiet. There is guest parking on site, and the main house is open for everyone staying on the property. It has a shared kitchen, tea and coffee facilities, a stove, and everything you might need if you feel like cooking or relaxing outside your room. Our cottage had high-speed internet, so at the end of a long day we connected our Fire Stick to the TV and watched movies in bed. In the mornings, we loved having coffee out on the deck, listening to the birds. The room had air-conditioning, a small fridge, fresh plunge coffee, tea, milk, and beautiful spa-style hair and shower products. Everything was extremely clean, and the bed, linen, and pillows felt so lush and comfortable. One thing I noticed were the bats outside the property, they might be loud for some people, but honestly, it didn’t bother me at all. It was still far quieter than the trains and construction noise I hear daily living in the city! The gardens are gorgeous, and the whole property feels calm, green, and incredibly relaxing. The only thing I wish is that check-out was a little later, as 10am can feel rushed when you’re trying to savour a slow morning. Other accommodations we’ve stayed in often offer 11am or 12pm check-outs. Check-in is from 2pm. Other than that small detail, I highly recommend Bangalow Guesthouse. It’s a peaceful, elegant retreat and we would absolutely love to come back for a longer stay next time.

We stayed at Bangalow Guesthouse for three nights over Christmas and had a lovely experience. The room was clean, tidy, and very comfortable. Bangalow itself is a beautiful little town with great cafes, the Butcher Baker was a standout. Overall, a relaxed and comfortable stay and we will definitely return.

What a little gem of a place this was, we stayed in one of the Bungalows which was beautiful. It had everything we needed and the bed was super comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would very much recommend it to other couples. The town was only a few minutes walk away and great for dinner and breakfast. We will definitely be back if in the area again.

The cottage is lovely- deck, fridge, bed. The main house has a shared kitchen. I couldn't find one sharp knife so I'm not sure how anyone cooks anything in there. It's not quiet. The freeway is not far away and the fruit bats wake you up at 5.

Rooms very clean Bed amazing so comfortable Hot showers Slightly difficult to find entry locations at night when you haven't been earlier in the day. More exterior lighting or signage would be helpful. Great location with lovely grounds

Beautiful accommodation, every amenity provided for and super well located (walking distance) to cafes, pubs and shops. We can't wait to come back again!

"Lock key inside, forget the code - OMG - Help!!!" Didn't we do welll - $300 a night! OMG Had booked this well in advance when breakfast was offered on the veranda as a key selling point OMG were we screwed! Pros Bed and bedding comfortable. Cons This was not a guesthouse per se, this is paying $250+ for a room in a house with random other people and no host, being given vouchers for an $11 breakfast and then having to walk half a mile down the road in the pouring rain every day! REALLY. WARNING - Lock key in room or forget the door code, totally screwed as there is no out of hours back-up. Rooms with nice wooden floors, doors with big gaps, unfortunately this meant we could hear all the sounds from other rooms including guests having sex! Views limited close to a busy main road. Rooms not really serviced just a girl ( not very friendly) asking if we needed anything! There was tea and coffee and stale biscuits and could cook but everything has to be cleared away as we noticed when someone had put coffee grounds down the sink and left them the cleaners didn't bother cleaning them! Oh and just a thought there is no cancellation even booking months in advanced! REALLY
