Our variety of accommodation means everyone can find something that suits their style and budget.

Celebrate forever in a way you’ll remember at Midginbil Eco Resort

Our property began as a dairy farm in the late 1800s and later became a farm stay, campground and outdoor education centre.

Sustainability is central to how we operate. We use solar power, compost food waste, give scraps to our chooks, focus on low power consumption and choose ethical suppliers, such Yarn’n, a First Nations–owned company providing 100% recycled Australian-made toilet paper. We also use a mix of tank water and treated bore water in line with NSW Health guidelines.

We continue to look for ways to reduce our impact and to support guests who want to host a sustainable event.

Our guests often tell us how much they enjoy being able to step away from busy routines and immerse themselves in the peace and quiet of our location. The combination of open space, fresh mountain air and a supportive team makes it easy to relax and focus on what really matters — celebrating with the people you love.

Em & TomDec 2023

We had our wedding weekend at Midginbil Eco Resort and can not recommend it enough. We had a beautiful wedding and actually had enough time to spend with family and friends with the three days. The pool was beautiful, all the meals Midginbil provided were delicious and the bridal suite was a great place with lots of space to get ready. Mel and the team are so relaxed and welcoming, we felt very comfortable and like nothing was a hassle for them. The view at the fig tree is unbelievable and such a great place for the ceremony.

Rachel & Andres'December 2023

We just want to give a big thank you to Midginbil for hosting the wedding of our dreams! Everything was perfect and our guests were in awe of the venue and are still talking about it months later. If we could have our wedding again we would not change a thing. Thank you to the Midginbil team ❤️

Our wedding weekend at Midginbil Eco Resort was everything we dreamed of and more. The location was absolutely beautiful and the hospitality of the Midginbil Staff was outstanding. From Mel and Kate in the office answering my thousands of questions to the catering staff who cooked the most delicious meals across the weekend for our 100 guests. Midginbil gave us the freedom and help to plan our day exactly how we wanted making it truly memorable. We couldn’t speak more highly of Midginbil Eco Resort.
