    It was a beautiful home and very well kept. The gardens around the house were stunning too.

    I absolutely loved the wildlife and it felt like a home away from home. Plus, I got to spend time with Jasper the cat. Jennifer was a fantastic host and we had great chats about her gardens and travelling.

Property information

The property is peaceful and secluded and the geece and the ducks and the birdlife plus the spacious garden make it special. It is my haven. I am working to make it more sustainable and ethical with vegetable gardens, hens, and bees .

Neighbourhood information

I am very lucky to have Maleny dairies directly across the road with their daily tours as well as regular food tours and honey tastings coming to my property. I am only a km from Wedding at tiffanies and just around the corner from maley manor as well so we have lots of lovely wedding guests and brides and grooms coming and staying for their special weekends
