Reconnecting with the great outdoors is one of the best things about Coffs Harbour. So what's the best way to do it? With a cosy cabin of course.
Most caravan parks in the area offer cabins of all shapes and sizes. They often include a kitchen, living space and a small outdoor space. All of them, with the exception of BIG4 Park Beach, are a 10-minute drive from Coffs Harbour, so you'll need your own transport to get around.
BIG4 Park Beach Holiday Park has a more central location, as well as all of the extras that you'd expect from a big-name caravan park. It offers beachside cabins that can accommodate up to eight people.
A little bit of cabin luxury can be found further up the north coast at The Bellingen Valley Lodge.
If you're on a budget, you may want to find something a little less dear. Locally run spaces like Park Beach Cabins offer more affordable alternatives. The lodgings may be simple, but at $50 a night, you can't complain.
