Birdwatching



Peacehaven Cottages are located amid Dry Sclerophyll Forest and Rain Forest, with Eucalypt Forests dominated by Flooded Gums, Brushbox, Blue Gum, Tallow Wood, Spotted Gum, White Mahogany and Iron Bark.

Over 80 species of birds have been spotted on our property (see list below) and many more nearby. The picturesque Markwell Valley with rolling pastures flanked by State Forest ensures an abundance of birds and other wildlife. Nearby is Myall Lake National Park offering a vast range of birds of the wetlands.

Peacehaven is the perfect place to relax and catch up with the beautiful birds in our area.
