Lyrebird Studio

Lyrebird Studio in the Watagans is a secluded retreat on a rural property of over 40 hectares on the edge of the Watagan Mountains. Only 1.5 hours north from Sydney and 15 minutes from Cessnock it allows you to get away from technology and unwind, listen to the wind in the trees, and observe the local bird and wildlife.

The only tweeting you will hear will be from the local birds, including lyrebirds, king parrots and black cockatoos. They have two large wedge-tail eagle nests up the mountain and you can often see them soaring in the updrafts they are a sight to behold!

Watch out as the wildlife comes down to graze in the surrounding paddocks most days. At night, wombats come out to feed and the local possum population occasionally hold a noisy gathering in the bush!

Amenities include air-conditioning, a compact kitchen and living area with comfortable couches and antique furniture. A potbelly wood-burning stove adds to the ambience in the cooler months. The living room also offers a large screen television and DVD player, radio and CD player. The bedroom has comfortable bedding and luxury linen, including electric blankets.
