Absolutely beautiful property, generous hosts, very handy to the highway. We had a lovely stop off in the studio flat & would love to return for a longer stay. A great place for kids & our doggo loved being able to interact with the animals, was very curious/wary of the super cute highland cow!

We finally returned to "Heaven on Earth" this weekend just gone and once again it did not disappoint! The Blue Lagoon is simply "Magical" and it was a great place to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary in style. Having the place to ourselves and indulging in a beautiful night-time hot bath in the new stone tub overlooking the magical lagoon is something to remember. Laura & Dougie are fabulous hosts and also very accommodating. We can't thank them enough for sharing this wonderful piece of heaven with us once again. Can't wait for our next trip back to The Blue Lagoon!!

Probably the best campsite we've ever been to. Perfect setup for our 19.6ft van. Kids absolutely loved it. Paid a little extra for the stone hot tub; it was well worth it.

1 night at Yellow Butterfly

This was the loveliest overnight stop for me on the way up to Brisbane from Vicoria. Nice flat ground and a bit enough area for a larger vehicle. special signs reminding us to smile and the beautiful sacred godess tree to help guide the windy road ahead. they had fresh running water to refill very clean composting toilets and a shower. Even though us trucker just of the long open road were a bit dusty around the gills I think the purity and love we felt at the Yellow Butterfly meant we need not have a shower as we were cleansed and afresh after our peaceful nights stay.
