Our Retreats
REST | RESTORE | RENEW
Every stay at one of our luxury retreats is more than a getaway, it’s a chance to be part of a bigger story.
When you choose Valley View or Carriageway, you’re not just booking accommodation - you’re helping women rebuild their lives through Destiny Haven.
VALLEY VIEW
Valley View is designed for those who long for space, stillness, and just a touch of indulgence. Every detail has been thought of from the open-plan layout to the large spa bath - so you can breathe deeply and unwind.
Spacious Living – Generous lounge and dining areas flow onto wide verandahs with sweeping valley views.
Luxury Touches – large spa bath, modern kitchen, and air conditioning make for a truly comfortable stay.
Peaceful Setting – Tucked away in its own private corner, Valley View offers the seclusion you need for a romantic escape, a personal retreat, or a restorative weekend.
Sit on the verandah as the sun sets over the valley, take long walks through the surrounding mountains, or simply enjoy the quiet. Valley View is more than accommodation, it’s an invitation to rest.
CARRIAGEWAY
At Carriageway, history and hospitality meet. Our original Red Rattler train carriages - once icons of the NSW rail network - have been lovingly restored to create one-of-a-kind accommodation. Step inside and you’ll find a perfect blend of vintage charm and modern comfort.
Red Rattler Carriages – Quirky, self-contained spaces with queen bedrooms, bunk options, kitchenettes, and cosy lounge areas. Ideal for families, couples, or groups seeking something out of the ordinary.
Country Apartments – Traditional style, with generous living spaces and spa baths. These apartments are close to the pool and perfect for couples wanting a relaxed, comfortable base.
Station Master’s Cottage – A peaceful hideaway with its own private garden and breathtaking views of the Dungog countryside. Designed for families or two couples travelling together.
Surrounded by rolling hills, Carriageway is a great base for bushwalking, mountain biking, or exploring the Barrington Tops. Or you can simply curl up with a book on the verandah, enjoy the pool, and let the rural quiet settle your soul.
WHY YOUR STAY MATTERS
Both retreats are lovingly managed by women in the Destiny Haven program. Every bed made, every space cleaned, every guest welcomed is part of their journey of healing and independence.
When you stay with us, you’re not just creating memories for yourself -you’re helping restore lives.
