We were made so welcome as soon as we arrived. We loved the wealth of information regarding trips around the cape. Some short and some a bit longer which we will explore in due course. Thanks for a lovely weekend

The property was clean, luxurious and very comfortable. Kingsized bed with aircon and ceiling fans made it a really comfortable stay after a hot days fishing. I would recommend this to my friends and will certainly stay there again when i head back up north.

Hosts were friendly and helpful. The breakfast makings were provided and topped up by the hosts. Fantastic historic old former bank/house that the hosts were doing up, and saving history. we could see how much work they had put into the project. they had a great coffee shop on the ground floor. As guests, we had the whole top floor as there was only one bathroom.

    Wonderful scenic location with excellent historical sites well mapped out. A must to feel the vibes and history in the foundation place of Australia. A great feel about the community who seem to get on fabulously. A must visit of 3 days or longer

    The botanic gardens are a must.

    The botanic gardens are a must. The separately themed gardens are well chosen. The James Cook museum is very interesting. If you don't want to go on a cruise or go fishing there's not much to do.

    Cooktown has a quaint old era feel with the heritage buildings in the main street leading down to the wharf. Fortunately we were in town on Saturday to experience the local market. Whilst not overly big, the friendly locals made the visit worthwhile. There was a good selection of local produce but a highlight was meeting local celebrity artist, Helen Gordon, who entertained us for some time with the story of her family, In the pictures you can see Helen with a picture that we purchased. A longer trip would have enabled deeper exploration along the Endeavour River and the national park. Good views over the town and of the sunset were obtained from Grassy Hill - a hill that Captain Cook climbed when he was having the Endeavour repaired in the bay below.

    Historic town - very cultural significant history - extremely interesting museum. RSL - good value/drinks/meals Excellent road access to Cooktown (but not in the "wet" season). Sovereign Resort did not accept American Express - only place in town that didn't, and staff in cocktail lounge had no idea what a Champagne Cocktail was !! (& used electric blender - not hand shaken = 007 most unimpressed.

    Our stay at Paperbark Retreat was unforgettable. Tony and Sue made us very welcome and we felt like a part of the family. They gave us the advice regarding places of interests and prepared very tasty breakfasts and dinners. We highly recommend Paperbark Retreat to Cooktown visitors.
