Dining at Paperbark Camp
The Gunyah (Aboriginal for meeting place)
is the heart of the camp.
The Gunyah treetop dining room also welcomes non-resident guests for breakfast, afternoon cocktails, bar snacks and dinner. Bookings are essential.
With a focus on seasonality and sustainability, and with a curated selection of regional wines and locally brewed beer, the fine dining at the Gunyah elevates bush tucker to new heights. Start your day with a hearty home-cooked breakfast, grab a gourmet picnic for a day of bushwalking and enjoy a romantic candlelit dinner on the verandah—all thoughtfully prepared with local and seasonal ingredients to reflect Australia’s multicultural and indigenous heritage.
The Gunyah is not only a restaurant but also serves as the camp’s reception, bar, and communal lounge area, welcoming in-house guests and visitors alike, and also includes facilities to accommodate those with access needs.

Thank you for a wonderful, relaxing and mouth watering stay. The food was exquisite, the tent divine. We loved the birds, the kangaroos and the penguins. All the best.
