Gumnut Hut, is a gorgeous rustic studio cottage with massive windows looking straight into the rainforest. You can't get much closer to nature than this! Gumnut is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the forest. Often used as a solo artist's retreat or a romantic couples getaway, Gumnut is the most secluded and rustic of Wangat's cottages, with a path straight from the patio, down to the river edge. However, it's no 5 star hotel. It has a basic bush camp style kitchen, a steaming hot outside shower, and an outside toilet. It's said the best sunrise's are seen from that loo, as it looks straight out to the valley in the east. So if you're like us and prefer the simple things in life, you'll love Gumnut. Wake up under the white lace canopy, and open the huge French doors, letting the morning sun in. Eat breakfast with the birds. Wander down to the beautiful Chichester River for a refreshing swim in the numerous deep pools. In the evening you have a choice of an outdoor fire pit right at the patio edge, or an indoor fire heater. What a wonderful way to spend a weekend.
