Highlights

The Lodge — Riverside romance just two hours from Newcastle

From ocean swells to scenic trails and charming riverside living, a stay at Harrington River Lodge offers the perfect blend of country relaxation and coastal bliss. Just seven minutes from the beach, this retreat awaits along the glittering length of Manning River.

With a backdrop of water views, the mountains beyond and the championship nine-hole golf course sprawled across the beautifully manicured grounds, the world feels completely insignificant here. While your days away floating in the lodge’s swimming pool, enjoying the old-world ambience and pub fare of the Irish-inspired Harrigan’s Harrington Waters restaurant or fishing on the river.

An abundance of hiking trails, picnic areas and fishing spots abound at the coast-hugging Crowdy Bay National Park — just 30 minutes’ drive from Harrington River Lodge. Think pristine waters, striking mountain views, a plethora of wildlife and footprint-free beaches waiting to be discovered.

When you’re not basking in the serenity of the lodge, you could use this tranquil escape as your launchpad to Port Macquarie, less than an hour’s drive away, or Newcastle and Coffs Harbour, easily reachable in just over two hours.

Your Handpicked Inclusions — Daily cooked breakfast, a welcome bottle of wine, cured meat platter and a 12pm guaranteed late checkout

Toast to a relaxing getaway with a welcome bottle of red or white wine waiting in your beautifully appointed Studio Room, featuring a serene courtyard or patio and luxurious bathtub in the ensuite.

Begin each morning of your stay with soothing river views and a full cooked à la carte breakfast at Harrigan’s Harrington Waters restaurant. You could enjoy everything from charred capsicum and corn fritters with poached eggs to a pancake stack with bacon and ice cream or the quintessential Irish Big Breaky, featuring pork and fennel sausage, bacon, eggs, hash browns and more — the choice is yours.

Once during your stay, savour a cured meat platter to share with a glass of white or red Yalumba Oxford Landing wine per adult. Tickle your taste buds with a variety of cured meats, semi-dried tomatoes, olives, cheese, nuts, dips and bread.

Finally, enjoy a 12pm late checkout so you can make the most of every moment in this riverside locale.

An enjoyable stay with spacious rooms. The whole area had a resort feel to it but nice and quiet. Tavern next door was so convenient. Only dislikes were that the pool was not well maintained. Some furniture in the room was dated and literally falling apart.

After having a bad experience at Harrington Lodge in 24 my sister persuaded me to give it another try. I do have to eat my words from the previous year as this year was a whole different experience. The unit was lovely and clean and a new lounge was added. Much more homely. Thanks Craig for a great week at Harrington River Lodge. Raylee

Stayed 2 nights on 28th & 29th April. Rooms need refurbishing. Stains on carpets and furnishings. On our 2nd night after enjoying a good meal at the tavern we returned to our room 13 to find it over run with ants. They were runing along the walls and along the bedhead.The barman from the tavern came and sprayed everywhere including the bedhead and then we had to put up with the spray smell. Nobody from management has contacted us to convey apologies for this experience. Disappointed as this place is in a lovely location.
