Idyllic Family Getaway on a farm - Bowen Mountain

Escape to the tranquil sounds of Whipbirds, Bellbirds and Kookaburra's in a 16 acre farm settings, come and relax, soak in the grand views and wander through park like bush settings. Feed our chickens and enjoy fresh free range eggs for breakfast. View the friendly cows and their calves, and bush walk the national park nearby.

Lovely weekend spent on the mountain. Amble entertainment for the kids. The house was very clean and tidy. It had everything we needed and more. We loved the fire pit and collecting eggs each morning.

Dirty House - great location
Unfortunately the property was quite dirty on arrival - bird poo on the kitchen benches and the floors, dirty cups on tables, half drunk water bottles in rooms etc the house is basically where someone’s old things come to die - it’s quite cluttered and feels a little gross. The hot tub was not useable - water was green and also filthy. We did enjoy the fire pit, and kids loved seeing the animals. However at over $1,500 for 2 nights there’s better places out there!

Beautiful relaxing winter getaway with the kids
We had such a wonderful stay! The kids absolutely loved feeding the chickens, the fire pit and all the entertainment on offer. The property supplies all you need for a comfortable stay. A few bedrooms had some electric blankets. Fully stocked kitchen appliances and equipment. Just bring along some coffee pods as these are not supplied but there is a Nespresso machine there to use. The area has so many wonderful attractions to drive to. Apple picking was a highlight as was Bilpin cider and all very close. Thank you Lindy!

Absolutely stunning!! With everything you could possibly need.
Breathtaking 180 degree panoramic views over the countryside - all the way to the city! From every room in the house! Feel like you’re on top of the world. Gorgeous verandahs to enjoy the birds and the view. The pool spa is divine and such an added bonus, even on a cold day! Inviting fireplace with pool table, outdoor table tennis and more than enough games to cater for all ages. Everything you could possibly need and more. House is very clean, beds are comfortable, generous lounges, separate areas for the kids, modern bathrooms, large well appointed kitchen with everything you could need and more. Surprise treats were a beautiful touch. Cows and chickens are such a delight! Escape to this amazing place, you won’t be disappointed! We will be back. Thank you.
