Mary’s place was a tranquil and peaceful place with beautiful fenced in and manicured lawns overlooking the mountains. Close to swimming holes and 15 mins into Cairns CBD and a very well set up kitchen with a BBQ on the lovely big balcony. Great place to sit and watch the mountains. Our dog Lola loved it. We spent 3 very relaxing days here. Thank you Mary.

Our Cairns Holiday

The Homestead is located against a rainforest backdrop, next to a beautiful park, and backs onto a rainforest stream. We relaxed, cooked, and ate enjoying the great outdoors. Our labrador Rilla has fallen head over heels for Mary's Diesel, so we must come back!

Clean, quiet and comfortable

We came back to this property as we found it such a lovely place to stay. The owner is very welcoming, the property is clean, comfortable and quiet. It is also quite centrally located; Cairns is about 20 minutes, the Atherton tablelands about an hour and the daintree about an hour and a half away- all easy day trips. There is also a nice walk along the river at the back of the property. The airport is only 18 minutes away, which we found very convenient at the end of our stay. Thanks for having us back Mary!

Lovely spot

Apartment is under the main roof of the owners property, located on the outskirts of town, but you wouldn't know it, as it was so very quiet. Lovely walk along a river right next to the property. The owners are lovely and we really appreciated the thoughtful touches. My husband loved sitting on the deck at dusk, listening to the birds. We would stay here again. Many thanks for a lovely stay!

Beautiful!

The house is just wonderful. It was great having a place so close to town and yet in the country too. Ducks, chickens, dogs and a peacock! We had our own bath and entrance so didn't worry about disturbing the owners. They made sure everything was available to us from drinks to cooking supplies. Close to the falls and on a creek with a great walking path that goes forever. Big comfy room, beautiful bath and great internet. Also it was great having a/c and a ceiling fan. Be sure to keep all food in fridge to avoid sugar ants. They don't bite but they will travel to find your food.

A beautiful introduction to Cairns! Accommodation was very comfortable and Mary made us feel right at home. Location is very pretty, with a stream at the bottom of garden. Just perfect!

Hidden Gem behind cairns. Make sure to visit this getaway

What a beautiful spot nestled between the mountains near a creek line. Rooms are very large, outdoor deck is huge and kitchen is perfect for what you need. Mary was such a lovely host. We had a welcome basket of food, a beautiful fire was made for us for the evening and our kids absolutely loved the property and playing with Lily, the animals and in the property. Thanks so much for a great stay, wish it had been longer

COMFORTABLE, QUIET AND RESTFUL.

Firstly, the photos need updated as they do not do justice to that back deck. Every comfort was provided and the finishing details well thought out. The host was extremely welcoming and friendly but not hovering in our space. The furnishings in the bedrooms were very comfortable and clean and again everything had been well considered for appeal. Will definitely book another stay when visiting Cairns.

Peaceful rainforest rest

Superb stay with everything we needed for a laid back rest. Mary's hospitality was perfect - available with great suggestions when we wanted advice but never intruding. Birds singing through the day and night. Practical facilities - great outdoor cooking for us from rainy cold WA. Wonderful.

poor value

If this VERY shared space had offered the ability to have our dog and caravan onsite at no extra cost, we could have overlooked the lack of privacy (residents kitchen and lounge overlooked shared verandah / only eating area) and amenities (we couldn't turn on a light ourselves to see in the early morning light while trying to make breakfast)

Wow!

From the time we made the booking, Mary was nothing short of amazing. She called within 5 minutes to introduce herself, and what a lovely lady she is! She greeted us upon arrival, had a plate of fruit for us in the fridge and the most amazing piece of paradise! The room was spotless, bed was sooo comfortable, and everything was just what was needed to feel relaxed. We will be coming back often

Great host, lovely accomodation.

We arrived at the accomodation after a very stressful day. The room was beautiful, clean and quiet and our host was absolutely lovely. A cheeky drink sat around the fire pit was good for the soul. The fresh fruit provided made a great breakfast and we really could not have wanted more.

Great stay

Mary and her children, are beautiful people they make your stay very positive and relaxing. The area is very natural, with a creek nearby. Great for a family holiday, if you are happy to keep things simple as far a meals go. Highly recommended.

Most relaxing Christmas

My husband and I wanted a quiet relaxing Christmas with our pooch, and we could not have been happier. Mary and her family are so lovely and accomodating. Their property is beautiful and we could not have asked for anything else. There is a fresh water creek moments from the gate which our pooch loved, a great balcony for relaxing on and taking in the scenery, a kitchenette with everyting u need and the supermarket is 5 min up the road. I would highly recommend a stay and we will be back again. Thank you

Wonderfully Quiet

The property was overall a very lovely place to stay, however there were cobwebs all over the archetraves and although it is advertised as a 'house' it is only one room - for a couple - and a kitchenette with no stove-top or oven, only a bbq and microwave for cooking. Mary was a wonderful host and provided great info about where we could take our furkids.

Great stay with our pups

My husband and I stayed for 2 nights whilst in the process of moving out of our house. We have 2 kelpies and Mary's place was perfect for them to run around and play on the huge grassed area. They even got to play m her friendly dog, which they loved. The room was perfect to come back to after a couple of stressful days. It's spacious, has a nice deck area and the shower was fantastic! We really enjoyed the tranquil setting and it was lovely having a chat to Mary as well. We would highly recommend.
