We originally bought the Star Hotel in december 2001 with partner Steve McEvoy and sold a lease to Peter and Sally Williams in 2003. In September last year, we bought the lease back and began transforming the Star into a beautiful Family Hotel & were really excited to see it completed Jenny said.

Jenny and her husband John now own the Star in partnership with sons Ben and Adam. From top to bottom, the Hotel has a new look, its much more open and inviting, with a variety of seating options for example banquette seating in the bistro adjacent a new "picture window"with a fern filled courtyard outlook.

The Beer Garden has, not been overlooked either. It now seats 50 people comfortably and features a "pavilion style" roof that compliments the Hotel beautifully and makes for year round use of this area. The beer garden also has great views of the Nambucca Riverand with a Tiny Tots play area it's now a great spot for family functions and other special events Jenny said.

Finally, the magnificient verandahs offer sweeping views up and down the Nambucca River, with the upstairs verandah comfortably seating 60, plus a delightful adjoining lounge for that quiet cocktail . The upstairs verandah is accessed via new sweeping staircase and with new sound and lighting, and decor this is a fantastic area for your next lunch or dinner outing and should be considered for that special function. Our son Adam and his bride Kendall, chose this area to be married on Valentine's day.

The upper reaches of the Nambucca River was the home of the Gumbaynggir for many thousands of years before cedar getters arrived in the valley in1830.

By the late 1800's more than 30,000 bags of corn and 2 million super feet of timber was shipped annually from "Bowra" and by then the population was 110. The new settlers were basically subsistence farmers and their early income came from cedar and later corn and dairy.

The town of Bowra, as it was original named, grew out of the forest next to the river. The cedar and later hardwood logs were delivered by bullock to wharves in Bowraville and punted down river to Nambucca Heads.

This magnificent two story establishment was built in 1896 originally as a hotel and as quoted In 1899 the proprietor Robert Mc Dougall boasted the Royal Hotel offers accommodation equal to any on the coast with good tables, good wines, good stables and attentive grooms."

Establishments like this were originally built to board single men until they married and the wife demanded a "Home to live in."

It's a credit to the new owners and licensees from 2002 that that offer still stands today though it's now called "The Historic Coach House Inn."

The stables and memorabilia still exists around the courtyard, like the timber getters saws, horse gear and coach wheels---it's still here, a rare sight.

Although restored, almost all the original architectural features are still in evidence, like the lacework and the verandas. All that's gone are the people of yesteryear.

There are many stories that can be told around the open fire in the old dining room. And the presence of the pioneers still lingers.

Glenn and Michelle are the new pioneers in Bowraville keeping guard over your history so you can still enjoy, reminisce and wonder what it was like back then.

The accommodation varies from single to family rooms and four-poster beds and our chefs and bakers produce, daily, fine fare for the restaurant and bistro.

Sleep tight and comfy, take in the sights around town, travel the river, traverse the hills and swim the surf, it's all around.

Features air conditioning, heating, Free AUSTAR, satellite T.V., phone, 8 units with panoramic Nambucca River views and patios overlooking spacious grounds.
Our property offers wireless internet, saltwater pool, snooker, bird aviaries, BBQ and picnic areas, boat ramp and fish from riverbank. We also have the facility to cater for Conferences.

Our restaurant offers you a fine dining experience. We have a very well stocked bar with casual and cosy ambience. A great place to unwind, relax and meet other guests or visitors. Our resort size tropical swimming pool is pleasantly surrounded by deck chairs and groves of palm trees. The Games Room is a great hit with the young folk and seems pretty popular with our older guests too! At the end of your journey or a day of energetic vacation activity sit back and enjoying a cooling refresher. A choice of intimate locations ensures that you’ll never be bored.
