The heart of the Daintree Rainforest offers bed and breakfast cottage accommodation
as a unique experience. Share our tropical rainforest with birds, platypus,
wallabies, and possums and maybe even a cassowary. Riverhome is a secluded
rainforest retreat with bushwalking tracks or even
take time out to go Barramundi fishing in the Daintree River.
Driving north from Cairns along one of Australia’s most beautiful coastlines,
passing Port Douglas en-route to the village of Daintree, your destination
is only a further 5 klms or an 8 minute drive, to Riverhome Cottages Bed
and Breakfast. Waiting for you at the end of a winding track is one
of our three well appointed cabins, set in a quiet and tranquil location
where you can be as active or as inactive as you please. There are acres
of rainforest areas to explore with many different birds and wildlife to be
viewed. After
your day of activity, walking, nature viewing, swimming or fishing take time
out to have a relaxing spa before enjoying a drink and romantic dinner on
your own private verandah.

97 hectares (230 acres) with their cattle, the rainforest, visiting wildlife
