Carpe Diem Guesthouse and Cottage is Tenterfield’s Luxury Bed and Breakfast Retreat. Experience country style hospitality in luxurious modern facilities at Carpe Diem enjoying panoramic views, and captivating sunsets, only 5kms from the historic township of Tenterfield. Indulge yourself at the Guesthouse with home style cooked breakfasts daily, scones and baked breads, manicured gardens, library, pool room and a roaring fireplace in winter. Picnic baskets, cheese platters or catered events can be organised as well.
As a host I love making sure everything is taken care for my guests and that they feel right at home from the moment they walk in the door. No request is too much. Providing freshly baked scones with tea and coffee on arrival and hot breakfasts in the morning with fresh local produce is a delight. Suggesting places to see and places to eat to make the most of guests stay in Tenterfield is also a delight. I look forward to meeting you soon!
CARPE DIEM Guesthouse is situated in rural farm land only 5kms from the township of Tenterfield with panoramic views and captivating sunsets. The night sky is lit up by billions of stars and the loudest sound you'll here is the odd cow in an adjacent farm.
