Yeranda Cottages
Where To Stay Dungog, Dungog, New South Wales
Yeranda is a 140-acre bush property situated at the northern end of the verdant Main Creek valley, 20 minutes drive from Dungog. It is completely forested with numerous walking tracks winding through the bush property.
The three stone and timber cottages are secluded and well separated from each other. Each cottage has a wood heater, fire pit, outdoor hot shower, and loo with a view. Everything required for a comfortable stay is provided – guests only need to bring food and drinks.
Yeranda is a popular destination for guests looking for complete privacy and the cottages are an ideal retreat from the stress of city life – a place to wind down and relax among the tall trees, or as a base to explore nearby Chichester State Forest and Barrington Tops National Park.

Kalimna Cottage was the first hand crafted cottage built by Kevin and Ros Runciman at Yeranda.
A secluded position on their 57 hectare wild life refuge property, it required the use of solar power for lighting and gas appliances. It was built to AS 1428.1 1993 (the Australian Standard for mobility limited guests) and has had a feature out door shower added which is ramped for access. The hexagonal shower is fully “under the stars” and a memorable part of staying in this fully self-contained cottage. An amazing loo with a view is separate to the cottage and looks out to the bush and down to a small dam which in summer boasts a mass of beautiful waterlilies. An internal shower and toilet as well.
