Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the incredible natural beauty of the Lamington region and its peaceful atmosphere. Surrounded by rolling ranges, rainforest, wildlife and fresh mountain air, it feels a world away while still being accessible from the Gold Coast and Brisbane. What we enjoy most is the sense of calm here — waking to birdsong, exploring nearby walking tracks, relaxing by the creek, and watching guests instantly unwind when they arrive.
