Overall Ratings & Reviews Hillcrest Mountain View Retreat

Great single night spent here for the Tyalgum Music Festival. Hosts Craig and Paul made me feel right at home and I got to enjoy a beautiful brekky with a lovely view before heading home. Can recommend, thanks guys!

Charming and hospitable hosts, stunning views, quiet and relaxing and fantastic breakfasts. Also gourmet dinners on request

We stopped here on our drive up the coast as a little pit stop and it ended up being one of our favourite spots! Craig and Paul were brilliant hosts and chefs, we were made to feel very welcome and we even extended our stay to enjoy the view, pool and food. We will be back!

Our stay at Hillcrest was very pleasant, thanks to the polite and accommodating hosts. They made us feel welcome and comfortable throughout our visit. The home-cooked breakfast was a lovely touch. The quietness of the location was also appreciated, providing a calm and relaxing environment for us to unwind. Overall, Hillcrest offered a nice, peaceful stay with thoughtful touches that made our time there enjoyable.

What fabulous place, beautiful location, quiet country area, we really enjoyed our time. The owners were so friendly and their service was impeccable. You've got to stay here, it's worth it. Richard & Megan

Paul and Craig were very welcoming and the retreat is beautiful.

From the moment you arrive a sense of tranquility comes over you. Paul and Craig are the most wonderful hosts and greet you with a true warmth. The location and views are breathtaking. You can do as much or as little as you want. Great bush walking country all around. But curling up on the daybed out side your room or in the pergola is the best thing…that is until dinner is served!!! Paul provides a fantastic selection for your 2 or 3 course meal. We had dinner both nights we were there and it was amazing. Craig provided simply outstanding service. It’s dog friendly and has an incredibly large dog run. Hillcrest Mountain View Retreat has it all don’t think twice book it now, you won’t be disappointed.

Paul and Craig were the best hosts ever. Highly recommended to get dinner at Hillcrest. The best meal we had in queensland. Great place for relaxation and to enjoy the scenic views

Exceptional service, food and accomodation. Well located retreat with fantastic personal service and attention. They clearly love what they do.

I took my partner here for his birthday and to have a quiet retreat for a few nights. We absolutely loved the place and most of all, Craig and Paul. I can’t recommend more, a stay at Hillcrest especially if you want to stay somewhere beautiful, comfortable and relaxing. And of course you should book a dining experience with the guys. The food was fabulous!

Paul and Craig make you feel totally welcome and fantastic hosts. The property is just a piece of paradise. Food was just exquisite. Great stay

Such a wonderful stay. So hospitable with incredible food 😀

Hosts were perfect. Enjoyed our stay. Would recommend to anyone

Very relaxing & the food was outstanding

A very relaxing overnight stay on my short Northern NSW exploration. Form the sumptuous verandah, and my room, gave great rural views, including bushland. My evening meal and breakfast were superb. Thoughtful hosts. I wished I could have stayed longer. I will, next visit.

This property has magnificent views all around. The hosts were very good and the breakfast was fantastic.

The property is amazing and the owners are the most wonderful hosts.

From arrival to departure my partner and I had a warm, welcoming and friendly stay. Paul and Craig are exceptional hosts. Phil and I felt very spoilt with both deliciously and very well thought out dinner and breakfast. Craig and Paul expertise and experience shines through, which makes this a very special place. We will be back for dinner for sure.

The hosts, Paul and Craig, are an absolute delight! Nothing was too much trouble and they were so easygoing...and funny! Paul's cooking is also divine. The cappuccino creme brulee was to die for! Thank you so much. My daughter and I had a great time and will definitely be back!
