Hidden Gem, highly recommend this property. The onsite restaurant although only a few options is 5 star plus in quality and service.Great wine selection and moderate pricing. I would book this restaurant even if not staying at the property. Great breakfast also.

Froog Moore Park is highly recommended. Most enjoyable.

I am sure that we are not the first people to “discover” The Retreat at Froog-Moore Park. Coming up from Sydney to attend to an urgent matter we booked by chance and found ourselves in a different world. Not at all what we expected. Peter and Sandy have a background in shopfitting and design as well as a passion for travel and cooking superb food. Much of the produce is grown on site. The result is themed rooms with great attention to detail. Every element is chosen with care. The food is carefully crafted and delightfully surprising. We felt welcomed and totally at home from the moment we walked in. Not your usual accommodation . A really lovely experience.

A most unusual place! Peter was an excellent host - very friendly and helpful. The room was very dark, and all the decor was rather unusual, if eclectic. The breakfast was fantastic. The retreat is not at its best in the drought - a lot of the garden is looking very sad. I'm not sure what they are trying to achieve, but I wish them luck finding it.

Excellent service. Fantastic food. Comfy bed. Quiet.

Wonderful place to stay.... and the owners, Sandy and Peter, are such lovely people who will go out of their way to ensure your needs are catered for in their beautifully furbished rooms and surrounds. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Tamworth

Lots of lovely little touches you won't find in other accommodation. Its also pretty wild, kooky, warm and friendly. A hell of a lot of time and care has been put into making this a special stay. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to sample Sandy's stunning cooking due to work but I will make sure to when I return. I very much appreciate it when people make an effort to ensure their properties are environmentally friendly and this is the case here. If you're after a stay that is unique and memorable, pick The Retreat at Froog-Moore Park.

We were looking for an overnight stay on the New England highway and are bored by chain motels. The Retreat at Froog-Moore was a bit of a gamble but we were very happy with it. There are only five rooms, each with a different theme. Ours was Japanese and surprisingly authentic with lots of lovely touches in the decoration. The owners are Peter and Sandy Moore and Sandy is the cook and Peter is the host. We had dinner in the rather flamboyantly decorated “gallery” which is also the bar, lounge and breakfast room. Only 2 choices of main course but we chose one each and both delicious. But breakfast was even better with Moroccan scrambled eggs on homemade sourdough bread and great coffee. Not a cheap night (breakfast was not included and $26 each I recall but worth it!) but a huge improvement on a boring motel.

Extremely clean with great food and good presentation

A spur of the moment decision to stay at Froog-Moore Park. We booked the dungeon room which was certainly less conventional than the norm. It was a exceptionally clean room and certainly sets a mood. I would return to Froog-Moore again.

Very helpful and accomodating hosts. Nice decor and clean.

Do yourself a favor and spend a few days at The Retreat. Set on a large acreage with manicured gardens, it offers a very quirky ambient, with lavish ornaments and truly world class food, mostly grown in-house. Although it is classified as 5 stars, the staff are very relaxed and friendly. I have traveled extensively, staying in many different hotels, but this place is somehow quite unique. It is only 10 minutes from the CBD,

Fun themed room very quirky decor. Amazing food had a wonderful time and will be back thanks so much for your hospitality

Had a short overnight stay. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Stayed in the Moroccan room and it was very comfortable and nice size. Garden and surrounds are really nice for a stroll or sit and ponder. Would happily return.

we needed to be close to local hospital. Sandy & Peter are the nicest people & went the extra distance to look after our every need.

Just amazing; accomodated all of our needs. Showed us around and explained everything well

gentleman was quite pleasant and explanetary nothing to add

Room dark and not upmarket Not convenient to restaurants and shoppingVery disappointing given the reviews

Stunning, Something completely unexpected and not to be to rude but in Tamworth ????? One of the best experiences Ive ever had traveling, well equipped and services rooms, great food and a quiet location ... What more could you need

Five star plus - the brochures are extremely accurate in their description. What you reads is what you get.

Just fabulous!!! And different from the run-of-the-mill hotels. Sandy's cooking was so tasty, well presented, and so fresh. I will be staying there again and again, if I am lucky enough.

We stayed for one night on a road trip on the mountain route from Sydney to the Gold Coast. Fantastic garden which really made it a great stop. Disappointed that the owners were away so we couldn't eat in but it was reflected in the price- it would have been helpful to know when booking though.

Thought we'd try something different as part of a short country driving holiday. The owners were very welcoming and very helpful. Location is well away from the centre of town and so very peaceful and quiet. I had called earlier in the week to talk about my wife's various dietary restrictions and there was no problem with these being catered for - with a lovely meal. For a special treat, wonderful service and lovely surroundings it is definitely worth it.
