THINGS TO NOTE
Please note that we are positioned along the rail trail and therefore also have the Tweed valley Way road close by. There can be some noise of traffic, although we are classed as rural so it's not too much.
We have horses in the fields to the front of the property. The access gate for the horses is 100 metres away from the house and just in front of our access gate located at the bottom of a long driveway and next to the rail trail. The horse owners must access through this gate 2 times a day to feed and check on their horses. They do not come up to the property at all and do not use your driveway.

Excellent rail trail holiday
Great property right on the rail trail. It had everything our family needed for a wonderful stay. Lovely yard for the kids and a pool to cool off after riding. We would definitely go back.

About the host

Hosted by Jenny O'Flanagan

Host profile image
Hi, I am Jenny! Myself and my young family made the Byron shire our home in January 2020, after emigrating from the UK and we LOVE it. I set up Ocean Vibes Property Management 12 months ago and manage an array of places in the Northern Rivers for my lovely owners. Living locally means I can be a 'hands-on' host if needed and can offer lots of great tips for exploring the local area.
We love to travel and love the great outdoors, especially the Ocean. Our love for the sea has taken us all over the world as Scuba diving Instructors and we are so blessed to have had those experiences. I love to go for long runs, do Yoga with my friends and am currently learning to surf along with my 3 children!
I have over 5 years of experience in property management and hosting, and just recently set up my own hosting business in the area - Ocean Vibes Property Management.
My Partner is the local handyman and plumber and so he is on hand if any issues arise during your stay.
We are committed to offering a fabulous stress-free stay to all our guests, allowing you to kick back, relax and enjoy this beautiful part of our amazing planet!

Ocean Vibes look forward to hosting you very soon!
