Hi! We have a 20 acre farm at the base of the beautiful Glass House Mountains, Sunshine Coast, Queensland Australia. We run a bed and breakfast and farm stay, where people can come and stay with us and enjoy the farm life. We have a variety of farm animals including miniature pigs, alpaccas, dexter cows, chickens, miniature goats, sheep, quails, ducks and dogs. We are aiming to be self sufficient as possible and have a huge organic vegetable garden, we have our own beef, pork and egg supply, honey and are starting to plant fruit trees and expand our food production. It is the perfect base to explore the sunshine coast, only 20 min to the beach, one hour from Brisbane and just down the rd from Australia Zoo.
We are a couple in our early 40’s with a 5 year old and 2 year old boys, many animals, gardens and a farm stay business. So come and stay with us at the farm and explore the beautiful sunshine coast. Oh and if you love food and cooking this is the place to be.
