Gibraltar House is an accommodation gem, perfectly positioned between Glen Innes and Grafton to let you uncover the wonders of the Gibraltar Range and Washpool World Heritage Area.

This modern house, sleeping 10, features solar-powered electricity and a good enough kitchen for even the best cooks. In cooler months, curl up by the slow-combustion wood heater with coffee and a good book. In summer, throw open the doors and windows and pull on swimmers for a dip in the Little Dandahra or Surveyors creeks.

Alternatively, bring hiking boots to venture into the rainforest and granite outcrops of Gibraltar Range. Cyclists will love the Gibraltar-Washpool World Heritage walk with its many twisting diversions, and the park has plenty of lookouts to catch a scenic view across the canopy. Once comfortable, you'll be tempted to stay for much longer.
