SLOW STAYS

Tucked away on this 50-acre ginger plantation and family farm in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, you’ll find a 60-year-old dairy shed reimagined as a modern three-bedroom home. It’s been a labour of love and resourcefulness – the huge tree trunks you’ll spy supporting the walls and roof were felled from the property while secondhand finds pepper the decor. After getting to know the gorgeous rescue cows and goats, relax in the covered cabana by the water tank pool with views of the majestic Mt Beerwah (the tallest of the Glass House Mountains) or hit one of the nearby walking trails before retiring around the fire pit. You can even pre-order a platter of local antipasto or book a chocolate making class, if you wish.
