Location Description
Hookes Creek Forest Retreat is located in the Barrington Tops, to the north of the Hunter Valley, approximately 3 ½ hours drive north of Sydney.
From Sydney follow the Newcastle Expressway to the end, and then follow signs for Taree. Approx 15 minutes after Heatherbrae/Raymond Terrace bypass (10kms before Karuah) turn left onto the Bucketts Way following signs to Gloucester via Booral, Stroud and Stratford.
On arrival in Gloucester drive through to the end of the main street and turn left at roundabout onto the Scone Road. Hookes Creek Forest Retreat is 42 km from Gloucester. At the first major intersection past Gloucester continue straight ahead for Hookes Creek (do not take the right hand turn to Nowendoc and Walcha). Just past Copeland (15.6 km) the road forks - keep to the right, continuing uphill along the scone road, (do not take the left hand turn to the Gold Mine) 25 km from Gloucester the road becomes gravel, however, it is regularly graded and suitable for two-wheel drive vehicles.
The only other turn (Rawdon Vale @ 32 km) is clearly marked to turn right for Hookes Creek. Continuing along the Scone Road you will pass Mud Hut Road (@ 34 km) and Lauries Road (@ 36 km).
The turn off to Hookes Creek (Jems Creek Road) is clearly signed and it is 4 km from the main road to Reception of the resort.
Drive safely. We look forward to welcoming you to
