The owner is so lovely and did anything to make the stay memorable. It was so peaceful and we loved the animals, the property was only 25min from Gympie and the view was so beautiful sitting on the deck, I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting some time out, it’s worth the stay. The cottage was so neat and tidy, the bed was so comfortable, even the lounge was a good spot for a nap. All the things you need in the kitchen, was perfect.
Everything was perfect

The peace and quiet was what we were looking for, strolling around the property and getting to pat the sheep, pigs, cows and goats was amazing. Sitting on the veranda watching the incredible sunset was perfect!

It was exactly what we were looking for! Middle of nowhere, just the countryside and the sounds of the wildlife. The cow just wandering around was cool. And the pigs were super friendly!

Rustic and minimalistic, surrounded by animals. Definitely like staying on a farm. Beautiful scenery, the mango orchard is glorious to walk through.
