Beautiful little cabin tucked away amongst the trees, fully set up so you don’t need to leave. Kathryn and Phillip were so accomodating and really made the stay as easy and pleasant as possible. They made fresh bread for arrival and brought up water, ice and firewood when we ran low free of charge! They have built a beautiful fairy garden and look out point at the back which was lovely for a walk through. They really have put in a big effort with it! Outdoor bath was super lovely too by the fire. Highly recommend the property for all the amenities and what it offers and for how lovely Kathryn and Phillip are!

What an absolutely unique place this is! Kathryn has done such an amazing job in the making of this cabin, which has everything you need. It's private, comfortable and so much quirkiness everywhere you look. Loved walking through the fairy garden as well. Kathryn is such a fantastic host too. Wish we could have stayed longer. Looking forward to coming back!

You NEED to experience this place. What a most magical weekend away we had. The outdoor claw foot bath was AMAZING, it was so lovely to soak your stress away while watching the breeze in the trees! Kathryn & Phil have thought of everything you could possible imagine! The attention to detail and all the creature comforts are second to none. We enjoyed drinks by the fire at night and what a pleasure it was to have a beautiful hot shower off grid! The fairy garden is something to be experienced, so much love has gone into this magical space. Sitting having a drink at Lovers Lane is a must do as well. The bed is super comfortable too. Honestly when they say they have everything, they mean it, just pack your clothes, drinks and food everything else (even freshly baked bread & firewood) will be there waiting for you. We will 100% be back, cant rave about this spot enough! Even the possum came to say hello! Do yourself a favour and book this now, you won't regret it for a second.

What a beautiful slice of paradise. This cottage is completely private and very quiet. If you are looking to get away from it all this is your place. The cottage has such charm and character and it was so lovely reading the story of the cottage history and all the environmental considerations both when building the cottage and ongoing. We had some lovely feathered and furry visitors which added to the charm and the provided bird seed for the cockatoos was a great touch. We had a very comfortable relaxing stay and will definately be back.

Kathryn and Phil are just delightful hosts We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. They went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable, relaxing and also made sure our pooch was comfortable and happy as well. The space has everything you need. Games inside to keep entertained. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils etc. Little touches like having the fire pit loaded with fire wood, to fresh baked bread, blankets, Cushions outside. Everything to make our stay easy and straight forward. The fairy garden is the sweetest thing ever, a child dream. Lots of pockets to sit and relax in nature. So much love has been poured into this little tiny home and its surrounds. We found it hard to leave we were so content and relaxed. Would highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Mystic Adventures

Mystic Adventures is not just a cabin, it is a passionately thought out love child of 2 wonderful accomodating people. The cabin is equipped thoughtfully with everything you need and backs on to a carefully manicured and simply magical fairy garden. There are all of the benefits of camping from enjoying the stars to having possums come to check you out with all of the benefits of home, a fully and thoughtfully equipped kitchen, warm shower and all the linen and cushions you could imagine. The website cannot do this place the justice it deserves, it’s much bigger than it looks and Kathryn runs a coffee van as well if you need anything at all. They supplied freshly baked homemade bread and jam that was to die for and were more than responsive if we ever needed anything. Mystic adventures is more than a cabin, it is a cosy and comfortable home away from home and we will be back again and again and again. Thank you Phill & Kathryn we had the most wonderful time and I feel refreshed and revitalised. Kathryn, your hard work and love is evident in every corner of that cabin and garden. I can’t wait to see how it evolves.

We loved a few quiet nights away at this hidden gem. We booked at short notice and had no issues finding the place with clear instructions. The site was perfect, camp fire and bench seats was a lovely little spot to sit back and watch the stars while roasting a few marshmallows. The basic toilet was an appreciated touch for the females in our group. Very private spot, did not see the host (no need - but they were very attentive and quick to respond to messages with questions) it felt very secluded though only a short drive from the town to grab supplies. The horses came down to the damn for a nightly visit which was quite magical. A few local sights worthwhile to visit like the lookout and suspension bridge which is home to beautiful turtles. The locals of laidley were super friendly and we had some great food from the local chippo and bakery. If you are looking for a comfortable off grid stay (dog friendly too!) this place ticks all the boxes. Thanks so much, hope to return sometime!

What a wonderful set up Mystic Adventures is! Kathryn and Phil really have thought of everything to offer a relaxing and peaceful escape. The cabin offered plenty of space for myself and 2 children, yet felt cosy, warm and welcoming with many personalised touches, from complimentary snacks, fresh farm eggs and toiletries to board games, colouring in activities and Mystical Fire colour changing packets and sparklers (a huge hit with the kids). Whether you want a relaxing romantic escape or a family adventure, I cannot recommend Mystic Adventures enough. My kids loved exploring the grounds from sun up to sun down. They played tag and hide & seek around the trails, set up shops/cafes in the cubby to then serve tea to the fairies in the garden, dug with the diggers, practiced their golf at the putting hole and I’m pretty sure they wore holes in the ground under the swings. We had friends come and visit us on the Tuesday, one of the open days at Mystic Adventures, and once the kids were all tired out from the above adventures, we were able to purchase refreshing smoothies, coffees and sweet treats from the Mystic Adventure coffee van onsite. I myself enjoyed relaxing walks around the property, mornings listening to the birds wake, evenings around many campfires, an outdoor movie on the lawn, watching the afternoon bird feeding sessions and finishing the days watching the sunset from lovers lookout. We will most definitely be back, Thank you Kathryn and Phil!
