Clive and Tracy invite you to awake in the clouds at Hillcrest Mountain View Retreat, their oasis of peace, privacy, spectacular views from Mt Warning to the rainforests of Springbrook Border Range, 12 metre solar-heated salt-water pool and jolly good food. Specialising in peaceful and romantic getaways for couples of all ages, Hillcrest offers a choice of bed and breakfast accommodation in a private guest wing of the main house, or complete privacy in our separate luxury self contained cottage ~ set in its own private garden and located to take advantage of some of the best views in the Tweed Valley, Northern NSW. Hillcrest feels like it's in the middle of the countryside whilst being only 13km from the centre of Murwillumbah and central to 5 world heritage listed National Parks, pristine beaches, untouched rainforest and more. As Hillcrest guests are couples looking for peace and quiet, we do not cater for children or pets, but are happy to recommend local establishments who do
Main house breakfast includes a choice of juice and cereal, fresh/poached or home bottled fruit platter, yoghurt, our own free range eggs cooked to your liking, home-made breads toasted & served with a selection of home-made preserves,fresh ground coffee, herbal beverage or tea of your choice. For longer stays we vary the menu daily with such items as scrambled egg with smoked salmon, hot spiced plums on toasted waffles, mushroom & wild herb omelette, warm avocado & tomato dill salad on rye or the more traditional bacon, sausages and mushrooms can be organised if you prefer. At night we light up the gazebo, pool and gardens, making this a perfect spot to enjoy one of Clive's special summer barbecues. Self-catering enthusiasts will prefer the Hillcrest Self Contained Cottage with it's own gas BBQ on the verandah. Yes the Cottage does have a wood fire for chilly winter nights. Whilst cottage residents may prefer to use their fully equipped kitchen with full size gas stove and microwave oven; main house guests can choose to order dinner in the dining room at Clive's beautiful hand-crafted timber table, or in the fairy-lit gazebo by our solar-heated pool ~ perhaps enjoy a warm dip before your meal. What better way to spend a glorious summer's evening?

Hillcrest Bed & Breakfast and Hillcrest Self Contained Cottage are located in beautiful Crystal Creek via Murwillumbah, near the New South Wales/Queensland Border in the Tweed region of Northern Rivers NSW. As our name suggests, we're perched atop a hill to take in the breath-taking views as well as enjoy the cooling summer breezes. However we also have split system reverse cycle air-conditioning throughout, for those odd hot days when doing it the "natural way" is just not enough for true comfort. The gazebo by the pool looks out across 2 lilly-filled dams to the rainforests of Springbrook National Park and the Springbrook Border Range between NSW and QLD, whilst main house guest rooms open to a large verandah which looks across the rolling green pastures of a 200 acre farm to Mt Warning - the "plug" of the world's largest extinct shield volcano and the spot where the dawn sun first touches Australia.
