Weekend Trip to Bellbird Lodge
Paul’s place is a gorgeous escape from the business of life, surrounded by trees and birdsong this little gem makes for a relaxing trip away for those who enjoy the tranquility of being outside. The caravan pad is totally set up with hot showers working oven and stove top, water and a comfy bed to sleep.
The swimming hole is fresh and has many small fish and even a turtle.
Paul is a friendly and attentive host and has thoughtfully created his own version of paradise. Thanks for the rest.

We loved the cabin, it was so comfortable and had every amenity. It is located in a beautiful secluded area with green grass, trees and a pergola. We enjoyed having a campfire anytime of the day and night. This is a beautiful little piece of paradise to relax, unwind and get back to nature.

My kids and I had an absolute blast at the ranch. They really enjoyed the little pony with the light-colored hair that always came over for a pat.
There are just a few suggestions I have for improvement.
1. It was quite dark at night because some lights either weren't functioning or had missing bulbs.
2. The WiFi connection kept dropping intermittently.
3. There was absolutely no phone reception; Telstra is needed, as Optus and Vodafone didn't work at all.
4. Be ready to deal with a lot of flies (I recommend bringing fly spray).
Aside from that, it was an amazing place to stay.
Thank you!

Our family loved our experience at the pear tree farm! The cabin was well equipped with everything you'd need right down to kitchenwear, laundry, bedding , insect repellent - we actually overpacked 😅. AC after a long day of outings was also a major plus!! Angela is a great host and was wonderfully accommodating for my children with ASD and our family loved feeding the horses.
I would 100% recommend, pear tree farm.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the family bush cabin at Hope Valley. Anita is a very kind and hospitable host and the property is great to explore and to see animals including both domesticated and wild. The kids particularly enjoyed the animals and playing in and adventuring up and down the creek.
The family cabin is well appointed and has everything we needed to make the stay a great one. You definitely need a 4WD to get up the driveway to the cabin itself.
The outdoor hot tub (optional extra) is also great if of interest.
Hope Valley is a great location to get away from it all and to relax - we hope to return again in the future. Very highly recommended.
