Sue & Tony were very hospitable and helpful in letting us know about things to see in the area. It is obvious they have put a lot of time and effort in getting the property to the standard it is. Breakfast was excellent. Having access to streaming services was an advantage. We had our own shower but were not aware we would be sharing a toilet with another room until we arrived. Other accommodation properties stipulate if an ensuite is included. Had I known at the time of booking we would have to share a toilet I wouldn't have booked. I assumed our room would have basic tea and coffee making facilities and a small bar fridge to keep our water cold but it didn't. There was a communal fridge (I recall) located on the other side of the homestead where we could put things in but we would have preferred a bar fridge in our room. This wasn't mentioned on the list of amenities so obviously was my fault for not noticing at the time of booking. Now we are aware of what retreats offer we will be more careful to book.

So glad we booked here. Nice and quiet secluded area yet still close to town, excellent service and hospitality by the owners. Food was delicious as well. Would recommend to anyone visiting Cooktown and would definitely book with them again!

This is a Five Star Retreat from the moment you turn the bend in the drive, it is absolutely stunning. The lush tropical gardens are immaculate and full of wildlife, birds, butterflies and flowers. The place is spotlessly clean and the breakfasts were yummy. Do book an evening meal Sue is a wonderful cook, and it is great fun listening to Tony’s stories (he’s a natural comedian). On a personal note thank you for Rays turmeric coffees and his walking stick.

Everything about Paperbark Retreat is pristine - the gardens, the pool area, the broad-verandah homestead and the stylish finishings throughout. But what sets this retreat apart is the hospitality. If there's something you need, your friendly hosts, Sue and Tony, will provide it (coffees and homemade muffins around the pool in our case) ! It's a perfect setting for a tranquil getaway and Sue and Tony's local knowledge is invaluable. This touch of FNQ paradise is highly recommended. Arrive as guests and leave as friends.
