  Description

  We are a super sporty family sitting on a 100 acre farm in Biddaddaba Qld, it's in an amazing location between Canungra, Tamborine Mt and Beechmont in the beautiful Scenic Rim, it's a hikers paradise.
  
  We're 45 mins drive to the beach on the Gold Coast and 45 mins to Brisbane City.
  
  The property is incredibly private with amazing mountain views, we have a full gym, boxing ring, sauna, full size U.S Motocross track, Horses, Cattle, chickens and dogs.
  
  We have 3 kids, 24, 22 and 18. Our 2 oldest are always away traveling and our youngest has his last year of High School.
  
  We are after capable men to help with property maintenance as in mowing, whipper snipping, slashing (tractor has A/C Cab) Must have experience with mowing and whipper snipping.
  
  You will be staying in a modern off grid cabin on top of the property, it has amazing views for sunset and sunrise and is very scenic and peaceful for the outdoor lovers. There is no wifi, but there is great cellular service, so our travellers all purchase cheap E sim's if internet is a priority and they do not already have one before staying. It is generator powered. Our lifelong friend also lives up there and helps all work away's with whatever they need. But it is to be remembered it is a farm style cabin and must be comfortable with this before staying.
  
  We are in a great location and would definitely like to show people places that most tourists would never get to see with over 50 years of local knowledge. Because of our location being 15 mins drive into the closest town, a car is recommended to enjoy your stay and explore the near by areas if we are too busy to take you around.

  Plus we also have incredible peace and quiet here so you can just relax in the afternoon and stare at the mountains.

  We can offer multiple private camp sites, because of where we are a car or 4wd would be needed for adventures. Or a bedroom in the offgrid cabin

  What else ...

  Hiking, Surfing, Hang Gliding, Horse Riding, Rock Climbing, 4wdriving, Amazing food, pretty much all sports. Scenic Rim is amazing for adventures and The Gold Coast, Northern NSW and Brisbane City is less than an hour by car.
  A car or motorbike is needed as there is no real public transport here and we want our work aways to have flexibility to go places, so they can really enjoy the area.
  Canungra and Beaudesert have all the shops needed and they are 15 mins away by car.
  Nerang has a train station which is 30min away by car.
