About Cundle Flat
Cundle Flat is a small rural locality in the Upper Manning Valley of New South Wales, situated approximately one hour north-east of Gloucester and one hour west of Taree, around four hours north of Sydney. The locality takes its name from the flat pastoral land along the Manning River, which winds through the valley providing a scenic natural setting. Cundle Flat falls within the Mid-Coast Council LGA and is part of the broader Manning Valley region, characterised by rolling hills, river flats, and lush green farmland.
The Manning River is the defining feature of life in Cundle Flat, offering outstanding opportunities for swimming, canoeing, kayaking, and wildlife spotting including platypus. The locality is home to Cundle Flat Farm, an idyllic 350-acre beef cattle property that also operates as a popular riverside camping and accommodation destination, drawing visitors from across New South Wales. Everyday services are found in Gloucester and Taree, while the surrounding landscape — close to Barrington Tops National Park — makes Cundle Flat a haven for nature lovers and those seeking a peaceful rural retreat.
