The Hideaway Bush Retreat is the perfect place to hideaway, getaway, disconnect and reconnect. Situated on 4000sqm, this architecturally designed home with cathedral ceilings and air-conditioned bedrooms will be your retreat from life. A short 15-minute ferry ride from Cullen Bay or an easy 1.5-hour drive from Darwin City, which takes you through Berry Springs and along the outer border of our famous Litchfield National Park.
The Hideaway is a retreat, a retreat from hustle and bustle, where you can relax in the hammock in the breezeway or sit by the plunge pool and watch the beautiful native animals. You might be lucky enough to see Curlews, Kookaburras, Parrots, Rosellas, Wallabies, Bush Chooks and Kangaroos.
The Hideaway has no Wi-Fi or television (you can of course BYO your own device) but instead has a yoga mat and bolster, pool equipment to exercise, beautiful paths to meander through the garden and is located 800 m from the beautiful beach. We have heaps of board and card games as well as an extensive library where you can choose your next novel to escape with.
In the Wet Season, laze in bed in the air-conditioning and listen to the sound of the rain on the tin roof. Sit in the breezeway, with the fans on and admire the beautiful, green lush gardens. In the Dry, host a dinner around the pool, a BBQ lunch around the outdoor setting off the breezeway or just chill in the hammock.
There are two air-conditioned bedrooms. The master has a queen bed, bedsides with lamps and a storage area. From this room you have two lovely views, one of purple bougainvillea and the other of the native bush. The second has two single beds. There is a futon in the main entry which can be used as well. Should you need a cot, this can be supplied as well.
The Cox Country Club is open Thursday - Sunday for dinner and drinks. You are guaranteed to find a colourful local to chat with or you can sit under the fans, enjoy the atmosphere and a few drinks. There is a children's play area, they often host markets and often have live entertainment.
