Real Estate FROM COAST TO COUNTRY
Discover a Tweed Valley hidden treasure By Madeleine Murray A STUNNING region of rivers, creeks, forests and quiet country lifestyles lies between the north of Murwillumbah and the Queensland border in what many consider an unspoiled gem of the Tweed Valley. The localities of Crystal Creek, Nobbys Creek, Kynnumboon, Tomewin, Dungay, Urliup and Dulguigan are part of this area known as the ‘valley retreat’ – and for good reason. The spectacular Tomewin Road winds up the middle to the Queensland border offering stunning views of the valley. This relatively undiscovered area has modest settler’s cottages, lavish lifestyle properties, working farms and the iconic palliative care house Wedgetail Retreat. Before European settlement, the area was home to the Bundjalung people and covered in subtropical forest. The European history of the Tweed Shire began in 1823 when John Oxley travelled 11 kilometres up the Tweed River, and five years later, Captain Rous explored 50
kilometres up the river. Word got out about this lush paradise and European settlers
