What a beautiful “Getaway”, lovely hospitality. So inspired by the Food Forest. I have already started planning for my own. Thank you. We will be back.

Everything about your house and garden is wonderful! Thank you so much for providing us with such a lovely interlude from our travels, for the artworks and decor, to the frog pond, the river frontage and your kind hospitality. It has been very much appreciated.

Thank you for your warm welcome. I was soothed by the colours and textures you have chosen to furnish The Junction Room. I was calmed everyday by the sounds of the water and birds. It has been a very restorative stay.

Wonderful destination looking at the river.. You could be anywhere. Mesmerising. The sound of the birds, and the garden, the beautiful room. Thank you.

Thank you for a lovely stay. As I thought the accommodation in Bingara was the best I had last week by a long way…..

What a great asset for Bingara! Somewhere lovely to stay, magnificent garden and even better hosts. Everything you could wish for when away from home. Luxury++

Finally a comfy bed and amazing shower and water pressure. Thank you for a well needed beautiful sleep.xoxo

So glad we discovered this magnificent oasis where we were treated with welcome hospitality by Garry and Linda.

A wonderful couple of days. The Retreat is beautifully appointed and luxurious! The gardens are wonderful and full of unusual trees and fruit. Great bird life. A very relaxing environment.

A wonderful experience. A classy respite after 3 days of long hard work. A credit to the owners.

Lovely home with great bed and shower. Light filled spaces to gaze through windows at night skies. Thank you.

Bingara, a fossicking town and The River House is the diamond I found. It’s a real find. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for a wonderful experience staying here at The River House surrounded by art and edible garden and of course the town of Bingara on the Gwydir River. A memorable concert, deep within a community, that will live with me a long time.

Amazing to enjoy such comfort and style in Rural OZ. You want to tell everyone but that will spoil it for those who know!

What a wonderful stay. This place is PERFECT. The garden is superb and the accommodation cannot be faulted. And the town, what a surprise. You have it all here-we will spread the word.

Thank you so much for your very kind hospitality. The room and bathroom are lovely and the garden is absolutely wonderful! We especially loved the stingless native bee hives.

Thank you both for you hospitality, friendly faces and a wonderful stay. 38 degrees is warm but the room was very cool and clean and nice. Best regards too you both.

Great spot for wedding preparations. Lovely evening. Thank you for giving Bingara this beautiful place. I will recommend it to everyone.

The River House is just magnificent. We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 days here. 5 star accommodation in a lovely setting with an amazing view so centrally located to everything.  We would highly recommend The River House to everyone we know.

The River House is an outstanding venue in every way possible. This weekend has given us the annual opportunity to unwind, revive, laugh & leave the normal behind. The River House is exceptional and has made our 14^th weekend away together decadently relaxing.

We have enjoyed our stay at the River House so much, we wish we could throw a rope around it, and tow it back to Sydney.

The unbeatable combination! The River House, the Roxy Theatre and the river.  This house made for an amazing and memorable experience for our wedding.  It will always have a place in our hearts.

Simply beautiful and amazing. Thank you and Gracias!

Absolutely fantastic! A real gem on the banks of the beautiful Gwydir. If you're in Bingara this is a MUST STAY place. Thank you so much for having us - we can't wait to share this with Sydney Weekender viewers. Many thanks.

Absolutely  loved our stay! Such an amazing location & wonderful place. We can't wait to stay here again. So nice to be able to stroll down to the river, street & golf course. The River House itself is truly stunning & it was great to be able to pick things out of the garden for meals. Such an unique experience. Well done!

Best apartment I have ever stayed in!

It was fabulous. Amazing ambience & attention to detail. Staying here was a truly relaxing time & we look forward to coming back to stay again. We loved your concept of an edible garden & wish you every success.
