This place is truly spectacular. It was so cosy and utterly peaceful. We spent 3 nights here and loved every moment. We enjoyed warm nights with the lovely indoor fire and beautiful mornings having breakfast on the deck. We were lucky to get one full day of great weather and decided to spend the whole day just chilling on the deck and floating around the dam on a paddle board.
Absolutely everything you need is provided, including plenty of fire wood for inside and outside.

Heart & Soul felt like our own private slice of heaven. The rolling hills, peaceful pond, and total quiet made it easy to slow down and fully switch off.
The cabin was the perfect blend of cozy and open, with views that kept you connected to nature the whole time—surrounded by cows, camels, turtles, and birds.
Sitting on the deck overlooking the landscape was a highlight, and at night, the stars were unreal—bright and endless.
What stood out most was the privacy—no noise, no crowds, just pure calm. A truly special place to reset and unwind.

Such a beautiful view from the room. Waking up to the rising sun and enjoying the turtles swimming in the lake. The stay had all that we needed and the deck area was such a nice spot to chill and have drinks. Highly recommend this stay. Would definitely be back.

Heart and Soul is exactly what you need if you are looking for a quiet getaway surrounded by nature. The property is beautiful overlooking rolling hills, being able to watch cows make their way past your bedroom window is such a unique experience that any animal lover must see.
Nina the host is excellent, friendly and incredibly helpful even when it comes to silly questions. We definitely will be back and recommending it all of our family and friends!

Heart and Soul was everything we wanted in a holiday and more- privacy, everything we needed in one place and beautiful views. The cabin is a stunning little australian house right on the dam, with beautiful veiws out of every window. The fireplace inside kept the house warm and the fire pit outside kept us entertained for hours.
We will definitely be going back here again and recommend to anyone looking for a private country getaway.

Beautiful off grid cabin in the middle of farmland with no neighbours in site. Great fauna activity in the dam. Firewood supplied for the firepit and indoor fireplace. Kitchen very well equipped with all the basics.
A touch of luxury in the bush!

We really enjoyed our stay at Heart and Soul. Very relaxing and peaceful. Everything you need is provided for your stay. Parts of the driveway are very steep but we managed it in a standard 2wd hatchback so I'm sure most vehicles will make it.

Lovely spot tucked away in the hills, very private and fully self contained. Plenty of wildlife too, with very friendly turtles that like to hang around the outdoor area.

Beautiful spot with good amenities.
My only advice is to check the weather for heatwaves and stock up on ice and cold drinks if it's hot. Although there's a big fan and it's very shady and cool, it can get hot during the day and there's no aircon.
Nina (the host) is lovely and easy to liaise with. I had no problems at all during our stay.
I look forward to coming back.

We stayed here for three nights to stay out of the rain. What an amazing location- super private, good facilities and amazing wildlife to accompany us. Nina is very responsive and helpful with questions! It’s a beautiful drive to Noosa and surrounding towns! Highly recommend for couples wanting to get away.

The wife and I stayed for 2 nights for our wedding anniversary. It was just what we needed after a hectic year…away from suburbia and the daily grind, to rolling green hills and watching the cows graze as we awoke on sunrise. Thanks to Jack and Nina who were amazing hosts and only too happy to help when needed. Highly recommend!

Heart and soul was a beautiful and peaceful place to stay, equip with everything we needed for a weekend getaway. My partner and I stayed for a long weekend and despite some initial bad weather, the place was so comfy and cozy, beautifully furnished. Nina was so kind and easy to communicate to. She was flexible with our stay and our needs. 100% would recommend if you’re looking for a picturesque time away

Their cabin beside a dam is a perfect few day getaway. Nice and secluded, no reception if you are with Optus, but that makes it better if you don't want to be disturbed.
It is a small drive out of Gympie, so make sure you have your food and drink ready. Saying that, the cooking facilities is more than enough to cook for 2 people.
We had a lovely stay and would stay there again.

Nina’s place was immaculate! We got there in the middle of a thunderstorm but that did not ruin the experience, if anything it makes cozying up by the fireplace all the better!

The accommodation was amazing! Clean, tidy and well equipped. Loved how it was all eco friendly. The location is perfect and so secluded. Planning to come back in the summer! The cows and camels were so adorable and came by for a visit most days

I loved staying at Heart & Soul, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to escape for a peaceful time. Driving in, it feels like entering a whole new world; wonderful views, plenty of entertainment, and a peaceful vibe awaits you. Initially, I was sceptical of going away in a remote cabin in winter, but thankfully, it exceeded my expectations with a warm and cosy lodge that never felt unwelcome. The host, Nina, has set up a wonderful environment for anyone to enjoy. I plan on going back to Heart & Soul as soon as possible.

We had a lovely stay, the facilities were clean and everything was well maintained. The views we spectacular and the wild life was great to watch. We loved feeding the turtles and watching the camels walk by.
Heart and Soul will always have a special place in our hearts, as it was also where my partner proposed - we will definitely be back!

Words and pictures are not doing Heart & Soul justice, you have to come and experience this place for yourself. It’s a secluded haven that allows you to be in sync with nature.
The cabin is warm and cosy, beautifully furnished and created with a lot of attention to detail. There are places to sit and get comfy everywhere and the surrounding hills look different from every angle. Take time to look into the pond, you’ll be surprised at what you’ll see.
It was spotless clean when we arrived and we felt instantly at home. Being off grid was no problem at all during our 3-night stay and I really enjoyed being able to test a composting toilet. Bathroom and kitchen are well-equipped, I especially appreciated the hair dryer.

We loved staying at Heart and Soul! The cabin had everything we needed for a couple of days, the views were beautiful, and Nina was super lovely and helpful! Great swimming and hiking only 10 minutes up the road, and plenty of cows coming to visit you any time of day 😊 we will be back x

The photos don’t do this place justice! I came across Heart and Soul by chance and boy am I glad we did! My partner and I came here for our baby moon and it exceeded expectations. You are completely off grid and immersed in nature.
I can’t wait to come back and enjoy it again, a true hidden gem!
