About this property
The Bunkhouse- Byron Hinterland retreat
The Bunkhouse @ Windaboo is the oh-so- slightly more rough and tumble brother of The Cottage @Windaboo.
The Bunkhouse is smothered in natural light given it's northerly aspect, multiple sliding glass doors and windows. It has polished concrete floors throughout to compliment a mix of modern and antique rugs, artwork and eclectic pieces.
Luxury linen is provided as are tea, coffee and basic essentials for cooking (oil, vinegar, S + P; the things people forget to bring :)).
Complimentary high-speed internet, Netflix, a DVD player, Bluetooth stereo and an array of board games and lawn games are available to guests as well picnic blankets.
For larger groups or extended families of up to 18 people, we suggest booking the entire estate of Windaboo.
Guests will have full, private access to all areas of The Bunkhouse.

About the host
Hosted by Skye Johnston
Ex city slicker with a background in property marketing & developing who ran for the hills and is winging it in the country after being hit with the breast cancer stick... along the way, I have adopted some rescue critters (horses, goats, bulls and chooks) and am trying my hand at rainforest regen, koala and native animal habitat restoration & organic farming..
Taking on the role of head guardian of Windaboo is by far the best decision I have ever made. I adore hosting people who see & feel the magic and healing qualities of this incredible property, it’s fauna & flora.
I love good food, good grog, a good laugh, koala spotting, the good life with my beloved Windaboo & crew & generally running amok, making the absolute best of every day...
