Welcome to Tin Horse Ranch!

This is truly a special place. David first fell in love with the Tin Horse Ranch nine years ago when he and a group of friends came up for a summer holiday. The same group kept returning and spent many holidays as guests enjoying what it has to offer. David is now the owner of this unique historical part of the Byron hinterland and he divides his time between Sydney and the Tin Horse Ranch. This is truly a special place for David and he welcomes you to share and enjoy it as he does. This same group still return every year.
Set on 33 beautiful acres the Tin Horse Ranch offers one of the best private farm stays in the Byron Hinterland. The property is rich in history, known as the The River Valley Ranch it was a working rodeo ranch in the mid last century. Working horse stables are still on the property. With views of valleys, fields and mountains, premium accommodation and facilities, the Tin Horse Ranch is sure to impress.

Please note this is not a party venue . We have neighbours and we respect their peace. Any noise complaints will be met with one warning and eviction at the second complaint.

Perfect Christmas getaway
This property is absolutely stunning. The three separate dwellings allowed our extended family to come together for Christmas, but also have space to take time to ourselves. The kids had the best time in the pool & the huge kitchen made meals easy to navigate. We had a blackout on Christmas Eve & were worried about our Christmas feast potentially being ruined but David went out of his way in the pouring rain to deliver water, a lantern & offer us a generator should the power not be restored. Thankfully the power came back on at midnight but we were so grateful for David’s help! We couldn’t recommend the property enough - the perfect place for a large group to enjoy.

Girls weekend
We were a group of 5 women who booked fro Friday afternoon until Monday lunchtime. Unfortunately, it rained heavily the whole weekend, however it didn’t stop us from having a fantastic time. The property itself is second to none. All you could wish for & views for miles. I can imagine that when the weather is glorious, the property would be even more exceptional, with no reason to leave other than to gather supplies. We’ll be back, for sure.

A piece of Paradise
Delightful all the way round. Extremely well equipped kitchens, lovely beds and linens, beautiful grounds so well kept, ample space for a big group, and checkin process was a breeze. Truly an ideal venue to do retreat or large gatherings. I’ll be booking again in the future!

Boys Weekend Away
Group of 15 boys away for 4 nights in Mid March 2021. Booking process & communication was fantastic. The property itself was impressive, catered to all our needs and we would definitely stay here again. Unfortunately there was freak flooding & torrential rain during our stay and due to the location we had difficulties getting in and out of the property to local areas like Byron & Ballina, so something to be mindful of when looking at the location and transportation needs.
