About this property

Early Diggings Hut surrounded by Rainforest and verdant pasture.

Early diggings Hut is in an environment dominated by nature. The passage of time is marked by the movement of cattle, the shade and mist from the ranges, the clouds gathering and dispersing around Mt Battle Frere. A cassowary crossing the paddock regularly in late evening, the call of the chowchillas and the fresh whip call of the rifle bird in the morning and the shrieks of the cicadas on a summer afternoon, indicate the time of day. The frequency and volume of rainfall marks the seasons. Located near the Nerada Tea factory, the Mount Bartle Frere walking tracks, equidistant between Malanda and Yungaburra.

Topaz Farm

Well appointed remote accommodation with spectacular views and friendly cows at the window!! The addition of wifi would be appreciated. Very friendly hosts and we left with lots of farm produce. The pumpkin was amazing. Pet friendly is a big plus.

Seclusion, beauty and nature wonderland

The most generous and accommodating hosts sharing an amazing property with incredible views, peaceful and beautiful natural surroundings and the most tasteful and practical accomodation - the converted dairy is a triumph of design and a joy to inhabit! Great for nature lovers, birdwatchers and anyone wanting to rest and unwind away from the rat race. Our second visit and can’t wait to stay again.

We recently stayed at the beautiful farmland on 2458 Topaz Rd, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, Lidiya, our host, welcomed us with the warmth of a glowing wood fire. She is truly lovely, kind, and incredibly welcoming—she made us feel as if we were arriving at our own home rather than an accommodation.The location itself is stunning, surrounded by beautiful geography and open views that instantly soothe the soul. We spent time exploring the entire farmland, enjoying peaceful sunrise moments, watching cows grazing across the fields, and taking in scenery that reminded me deeply of my own farmland back home. It felt familiar, comforting, and truly “in my blood.”We celebrated our baby’s second birthday during our stay, and the place made it extra special. With the decorations set up, we didn’t have to bring anything besides our food. Everything was clean, beautifully arranged, and thoughtfully prepared. Lidiya also shared stories about her farmland—how she built it and the journey behind it—which made the experience even more personal and meaningful.We also explored her amazing native garden, filled with diverse trees and plants. We were even able to take some native plants home to add to our own garden, which was such a lovely touch.Overall, our stay was relaxing, mesmerizing, and heartwarming. We absolutely look forward to visiting again in the future. Thank you, Lidiya, from the bottom of our hearts.

Early Diggings Hut - sublime location, exquisitely furnished, restful.

Early Diggings Hut is a superb cottage, located on a farm in Topaz, on the Atherton Tablelands. The setting is breath taking: with green, rolling paddocks overlooking virgin rainforest (cassowary sightings are common). The cottage is beautifully furnished, with gorgeous rainforest timber tables and comfy chairs to look out the large picture windows, and the bathroom is exquisite. This is a wonderful spot to relax and unwind. The hosts (who live in the main house near the cottage) are just lovely people too. I cannot rate this cottage highly enough. You will not be disappointed.
