HANGAR 1, Booyong
Defined by its bold arched form, Booyong is an unapologetically Australian escape – crafted from timber, stone and steel, and designed to feel deeply connected to the landscape that surrounds it.
Wrapped in rich timber and rugged natural stone, the cabin strikes a balance between raw beauty and understated luxury. Floor-to-ceiling glazing draws the outdoors in, opening onto a private courtyard and native gardens, while a freestanding stone bath, wood-burning fireplace and carefully considered interiors create a space that feels equal parts sanctuary and hideaway.
Outside, the deck spills towards the forest canopy, where long afternoons drift into evenings around the sunken fire pit. Pour a drink, watch the light fade across the trees and settle in beneath a sky full of stars. This is country Australia at its best – wild around the edges, yet effortlessly comfortable.
Inside, every detail has been designed for slowing down. Premium linen, bespoke finishes, a luxurious rain shower and uninterrupted views from bed invite lazy mornings and lingering nights. There are no schedules here, only the crackle of the fire, the scent of timber and the feeling of having nowhere else to be.
Booyong is made for those seeking something beyond the ordinary – a place to disconnect from the noise, reconnect with nature, and experience a slower, more grounded way of living.
A place for slow stays, still moments and deep rest among the trees.

At the heart of Temple Hangars sits a generous open-air pavilion designed for long lunches, shared meals and slow evenings around the fire.
Wrapped in hand-finished textured walls, warm hardwood joinery and a soaring timber-lined ceiling, the space feels both grounded and expansive. A fully equipped outdoor kitchen, oversized barbecue and generous preparation areas make gathering effortless, whether it’s a morning coffee or a feast cooked over coals.
Solid timber dining tables overlook rolling green hills and native bushland, with uninterrupted views stretching to the horizon. As the sun drops behind the ranges, the pavilion becomes a place to linger – firewood stacked high beside a sculptural fireplace, the scent of timber smoke in the air and the changing colours of the landscape providing the backdrop.
Thoughtfully designed as a shared space for guests, the pavilion captures the spirit of the Australian countryside: open, relaxed and deeply connected to its surroundings. It’s a place for conversation, celebration and the simple pleasure of watching the day unfold across the valley.

A short stroll from the hangars, The Hinterland Spa offers a quiet place to slow down and reconnect with the landscape.
Set amongst native plantings, weathered bush rock and open green paddocks, the space pairs a cedar hot tub with a striking black sauna, creating a Nordic-inspired wellness experience shaped by the Australian countryside. Warm timber decking extends into the landscape, inviting guests to move between heat, fresh air and expansive views across the valley.
As the sun sinks behind the ridgeline and mist settles into the surrounding bushland, The Hinterland Spa becomes a place for stillness. Soak beneath wide country skies, unwind in the gentle warmth of the sauna, and embrace the restorative rhythm of nature.
Designed as a shared retreat for guests, The Hinterland Spa celebrates the simple luxury of slowing down – warm water, timber, stone and fresh country air, all set against the quiet beauty of the Byron hinterland.
