SLOW STAYS

When you love the idea of ‘going country’ but loathe the prospect of pokey, dusty and creaky digs, set your destination to Tenterfield where the blush pink Queenslander-style retreat, Sunday at Mirumiru beckons. Drenched in natural light, Sunday thrives as an eco-conscious sanctuary, consciously restored with found and refurbished items. Rainwater sustains, solar empowers, and a deliberate absence of gas fosters a mindful connection to nature. Don’t be surprised to wake to find wallabies at the back door, or echidnas as you stroll the revegetated farm. Feel free to pluck provisions from the kitchen garden and enjoy honey from just down the street slathered on your toast. As day transitions to night, the enchantment deepens – the awe-inspiring vista of Mount Mackenzie sets the stage for celestial wonders, with a new firepit inviting you to savour starlit moments.
