About this property

Firefly Resort: House & Cottage on 10 acres. BBQ deck, pool, tennis court, lawns

  • Welcome to Firefly Resort. Ten acres of lawn, gardens and bushland await you! The House and Cottage combined accommodate up to 18 guests. An in-ground pool and inner lawns are framed with hedgerows and paths that lead to the cottage orchard and larger grassy areas, which gently slope down to the front dam. An ideal space for a romp, pet exercise, or an afternoon/sunset picnic. With its location and all the amenities on offer, Firefly Resort is ideal for large group/family getaways.

    Together, Firefly House and Cottage accommodate up to 18 guests.
    The house welcomes 10 guests, with 3 bedrooms (2 ensuite), large kitchen, and adjacent open plan dining. The dining area boasts valley views, and leads to the BBQ entertaining deck and large in-ground pool. A wraparound verandah steps onto hedgerow-lined lawns, leading to a natural bush setting at the rear of the property, and the cottage and open grassy areas at the front.

    Firefly Cottage accommodates another 8 guests. The cottage's open-plan living area contains kitchen, dining, log fire... and yes a full size pool table! Also downstairs is the bathroom with a spa bath, and a sofa bed for 2 guests. Upstairs consists of a large timber loft bedroom, set up with two beds for 4 guests. An additional self-inflating (very comfy) queen airbed can be set up for an extra 2 guests. The loft balcony is a great place to enjoy sunsets over the entire property and the valley beyond.

    The pool area and tennis court - together with the grassy areas, pergola, firepit, orchard and rear bushland - provide for great outdoor experiences at the property all year round.

    The property is located In the Manning Valley; 30 mins from Forster on the coast, and 30 mins from Gloucester … gateway to Barrington Tops National Park. A quick 5 min drive finds you in Krambach village, with country pub and bistro, and coffee shop opposite. A 15 minute drive finds you in the village of Nabiac, with more pubs, cafes, bottleshop, mini-supermarket and service station.

    At day's end, the BBQ/Entertaining deck is the place to be - relaxing and dining with your group as you enjoy sunset views over the valley.

Our small family loved FireFly! Mike was great, Max the pup adorable and the house and property perfect for our get-together. Heaps and heaps of space, cosy and comfortable beds and living areas and oh so quiet. The cottage was a bonus.Our sincerest thanks again Mike and we’re now “duck egg” converts - delicious!

We had an amazing weekend stay! With 12 adults and 8 kids, the place never felt crowded and had plenty of space for everyone to relax. The kitchen was fantastic and well-equipped, making group meals easy. The pool was a highlight, and the kids especially loved feeding the fish and ducks. Mike and Christine were wonderful hosts - friendly, helpful, and made us feel very welcome. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay. The style of both the house and the cottage are beautiful and Mike was a great host.We especially loved the pool and bbq area and really enjoyed the rural setting in general. The area itself is also stunning. We loved it all, from the beaches and golf courses in Forster/Tuncurry to the chicken schnitzels in the Krambach pub. Great area and wonderful accommodation.

Great group getaway

We really enjoyed the space and privacy afforded by the property. The flexible configuration of sleeping arrangements was great for our group and not something easily found in accommodation options. Overall a much enjoyed rural getaway.

Mike was a great host! Communication was amazing, Mike answered all of my questions. The property was beautiful, exactly as described and the pool was the cream on the top with many hours spent in there. Our family gathering for a 70th birthday was made memorable with such a beautiful setting and thoroughly enjoyed by our family of 16 with plenty of spaces for everyone to spread out and enjoy.Thanks again Mike

Awesome stay!

Had a great weekend with my family here. Mike and Christine were great host and were very welcoming. We had lots of fun around the pool table and playing darts. The weather was perfect for a tennis game and a nice cool down in the pool. Plenty of rooms for a big group like ours. Great place to come and relax and be with natue..

Perfect for a group

We stayed at Mike's place when competing as a team in a rowing regatta in Taree. It was the perfect place to come back to at the end of the day and jump in the pool. There were so many sleeping options which made it perfect for our group. We will be back again next year.

We had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend this property for large family groups. There was plenty of room for our family of 16, and the house was equipped with everything we could possibly need. The property was very clean and well maintained.The tennis court was a huge hit and was in constant use all weekend for family tennis matches. There was plenty of space for cricket games, and spotlight games after dark with the kids. The facilities were excellent, with a great BBQ, a large oven for cooking meals, and fire pits.Although we didn't use the pool due to it being winter, it looked beautiful and very clean. The fireplace stoves kept the houses warm and cosy, and there was also additional heating available when needed.Mike was a fantastic host and went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The kids especially loved when he took them to feed the horses and ducks, which was a real highlight of the trip.Overall, we had a wonderful time creating special family memories and would happily stay here again.

A great place for a group to come together!

We had a wonderful time at Mike and Christine's place. A group of us wanted to celebrate my husbands 40th birthday and this ticked all of the boxes. A beautiful place to stay, with plenty of room for our group and our little dog too! There was everything we needed to enjoy the weekend and Mike and Christine were fantastic hosts, easy to communicate with at every stage of the booking. Thanks for providing us with the perfect getaway!

Hidden gem at Firefly

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Firefly Retreat. If you’re seeking a plenty of space to relax and great facilities to match this is your spot. The group got plenty of use out of the tennis court, swimming pool, pool table and dart board. Mike the host was great to deal with and in regular contact. Close enough to Nabiac shops and a great country pub at Krambach. Great stay.

Amazing!

What a property to stay at! My friends and I had an absolute amazing time at this beautiful property. It was well equipped with everything you could need and/or want across the two houses. The place was super clean and tidy and had gorgeous country views. Mike (host) was super in his communication and support over the weekend and leading up to it. Could not have asked for anything more. Would easily come back and spend longer!
