Gorge View Bush Retreat : Katherine NT

Wow, this is not what I expected. Great sunset viewing platform. Good fire pit with footrests! A hair-dryer in the bathroom! A pool! Lights. Pizza can be delivered (we didn't partake). Bugspray & drinking water available. Perhaps will upgrade next visit.

To enter this incredible bush retreat at night was simply magnificent. To wake up in the morning and check out all the facilities made available to guests, was beyond my expectations. The attention to detail by Kate & Karney was exceptional. A spectacular highlight was the sunset platform; however, it was our cultural experience with Manual & Kate that made this visit so exquisite. I can only say thank you.

I am not known for being much of a camper but when in Katherine what better place to stay than here. Cute as a button the glamping tents came with a couch, great beds, linen, fan, torch .. really Kate and Carney have thought about everything. Fridge in the share kitchen was full of fresh cold water- shared bathrooms where clean and the common pool was refreshing. Our evening on the top deck with impromptu local guest Manu playing didgeridoo and authentically sharing his story was a highlight! We felt very lucky to share the space for the evening.

Very cool set up. Cozy tents with very comfy beds, air conditioning and a fan! Great pool and bush camp kitchen. Viewing deck has panoramic views. You can order pizzas in advance for dinner and these were delicious or you can drive a short way to have dinner in Katherine or you could cook and eat at the communal tables. Stunning landscapes

We planned to stay for 2 and extended to stay another night to really see some of the local sights. Kate & Carney are extremely welcoming hosts, encouraging us not to miss sunset hour & promptly head up to the sunset deck to hear Manual on the didgeridoo. The children loved hearing Manual's storytelling while being treated to freshly made pizzas. The camp ground was ideally situated to Nitmiluk National Park for 2 gorge boat cruise. Make sure to pack your pool noodle to enjoy floating down the hot springs in town & the short walk to Edith Falls for family friendly swimming. The children are still talking about when we are next going to visit Kate & Carney at Gorge View Bush Retreat, thanks for having us :)

Great location outside Katherine. Friendly staff genuinely wanting to ensure you have a great stay starting with an ice cold drink on arrival and the offer of freshly prepared pizzas on the property’s sunset viewing deck. Shower / toilet blocks were clean with lovely hot showers and plenty of shampoo, conditioner, body wash and handwash and a hair dryer. Well equipped camp kitchen and beautiful new swimming pool. The beds in the tents were comfy with clean linen and towels provided and warm blanket and doona for chilly nights / mornings. Each eco tent had a cute little ceiling fan and 2 USB ports for phone charging. Loved our stay at Gorge View Bush retreat and can highly recommend to others.
