Atherton Tableland Bed and Breakfast Farmstay Accommodation Barking Owl Retreat Activities

Just relax and take in the views, native wildlife, birds, and farm animals from your private back deck, soak in the double Spa in the Dingo's Lair, take a stroll on the property, or drop a line in the property Dam and catch a Sooty Grunter (Black Bream). Fishing equipment is supplied or you are welcome to bring your own. Don't fish, then enjoy a hamper on the Jetty, capture the beauty of our property by photography, or enjoy a wine whilst listening to birdsong and watching the sunset on the horizon. Better still, raid the Gourmet Mini Bar then veg out with a DVD and an afternoon snooze. Perfect for Birdwatching on the Atherton Tablelands. See our Birdwatching page.
