🌿 Shanlyn Farm – Off-Grid Eco Retreat Welcome to Shanlyn Farm, an off-grid eco retreat set in the steep, rolling hills of Traveston in the Noosa Hinterland. More than a farmstay, Shanlyn is a sanctuary of peace, reflection, and soulful living — created in memory of Shane and lovingly tended by Lynne. The land itself is part of the experience. Tucked into the hillside, each space offers rainforest views, birdsong by day, and a canopy of stars at night. The terrain is natural and hilly, inviting slow walks and still moments. Shanlyn is fully off-grid, powered by solar and supplied with rainwater. Décor is simple and thoughtful, with much of the furniture repurposed or handmade, blending rustic charm with sustainable living. Animals roam freely here: horses graze in the paddocks, donkeys meander by with curiosity, cows move gently across the hills, chickens scratch at the earth, and peacocks bring flashes of colour as they pass. Their presence is part of Shanlyn’s spirit, and guests are welcome to enjoy their company with respect. Guests also share in the Satya Deck, a timber platform with a communal firepit overlooking the forest, and the Shane Spiral Labyrinth, a ceremonial path for meditation and reflection. These spaces are the heart of Shanlyn, inviting both solitude and connection. Accommodation at Shanlyn 🌙 Solace Dome – A spacious eco-dome with queen bed, rainwater bathroom, kitchenette, and a private deck overlooking the rainforest. 🚐 Little Soho – A restored 1968 vintage caravan with queen bed, dining nook, and retro charm, set in a quiet nook of the hillside. ☀️Solara Dome - A light-filled geodesic dome nestled amidst the tree tops, Solara Dome is a private sanctuary for rest, reflection and reconnection. 🔥 Satya Deck & Labyrinth – A shared space for meditation, tea, yoga, and evenings by the fire under starry skies. At Shanlyn, you are invited to Stay … Breathe, Remember, Reconnect.

🌙 Solace Dome – Eco Off-Grid Retreat Tucked into the hillside with rainforest views, Solace Dome is a spacious eco-dome designed for comfort, privacy, and connection to nature. Inside, you’ll find: A queen bed with natural linen bedding Repurposed timber furnishings and soulful vintage touches A cozy lounge area for reading, writing, or simply gazing out at the land A rainwater bathroom with eco-friendly design A kitchenette with essentials for preparing simple meals Quaint fireplace for the cool mornings with firewood supplied Step outside onto your private deck and you’ll look directly into the rainforest canopy. The dome feels sheltered by the hillside yet open to birdsong, shifting light, and the whisper of wind in the trees. By night, the skies above Shanlyn are filled with stars — bright, endless, and awe-inspiring. Guests also share access to the Satya Deck & Firepit, a timber platform for meditation, tea, or gathering under the stars, and the Shane Spiral Labyrinth, a ceremonial walking path for reflection and grounding. The farm animals may wander by — horses grazing, donkeys meandering, cows moving slowly, chickens scratching, peacocks flashing colour. Their presence is gentle, free-roaming, and part of the spirit of Shanlyn. Solace Dome is ideal for couples or solo travellers seeking a retreat from busy life — a place to pause, breathe deeply, and reconnect with yourself in the embrace of the land.

🚐 Little Soho • Vintage Caravan Little Soho is a lovingly restored 1968 caravan filled with retro charm and soulful simplicity. Nestled into a quiet nook of Shanlyn’s hillside, it offers privacy, comfort, and sweeping views of paddocks and rainforest edges. This is a space for slowing down, breathing deeply, and enjoying life’s simple rhythms. Inside, you’ll find: A queen bed with soft bamboo and linen bedding for a restful sleep A dining nook perfect for tea, coffee, or slow breakfasts Retro character blended with natural finishes and thoughtful touches A cozy, inviting space that feels both nostalgic and grounding Little Soho is small in footprint yet big in heart. Its retro lines and vintage spirit have been preserved, while its interior has been reimagined with sustainable details and natural textures. It’s a retreat that honours the past while inviting presence in the moment. Step outside and you’ll be greeted by the golden light of paddocks during the day and the lush greens of the rainforest by evening. Animals often wander close — donkeys curious at the edge of the deck, peacocks calling through the trees, cows grazing across the slopes, and horses meandering slowly past. As night falls, the hillside fades into a blanket of stars, offering quiet evenings for reflection and stillness. Guests also share access to Shanlyn’s communal spaces: Satya Deck & Firepit – a timber platform with mountain views, perfect for meditation, yoga, or evenings by the fire under the stars. The Shane Spiral Labyrinth – a ceremonial walking path designed for meditation, grounding, and reflection. The Farm – free-roaming animals whose gentle presence adds to the living rhythm of Shanlyn Shanlyn is fully off-grid, powered by solar and supplied by rainwater. Much of the furniture and décor is repurposed or handmade, giving Little Soho its character and sustainability. Whether you’re a couple seeking a romantic farmstay, or a solo traveller in search of stillness, Little Soho offers comfort, nostalgia, and connection to nature in equal measure. At Shanlyn, you are invited to STAY … Breathe, Remember, Reconnect.

Solara Dome is a peaceful, glamping-style retreat set within Shanlyn Farm, a private sanctuary in the Sunshine Coast hinterland. Created for rest, reflection, and reconnection, Solara offers a calm, uncluttered space where guests are invited to slow down and breathe. The light-filled geodesic dome is thoughtfully furnished with a comfortable queen bed, soft lighting, and simple comforts that support deep rest. Wake to birdsong and fresh country air, spend your day wandering gentle farm paths or simply being still, and return in the evening to quiet skies and wide horizons. Large windows invite natural light by day and stargazing by night, creating a sense of both grounding and openness. Shanlyn Farm is home to horses, donkeys, chickens, peacocks, and native wildlife. Guests often describe the property as nurturing, grounding, and deeply peaceful. Solara Dome is completely private and best suited to couples or solo travellers seeking stillness, creativity, or gentle restoration.

Peaceful Hideaway

Little Soho with Farm Views

We loved staying at Shanlyn farm for a quiet and peaceful off grid hideaway. This was our second stay but the first at “Little Soho” which was a well appointed and comfortable vintage caravan with a deck, a view and an adjoining ensuite off the deck. The birdsong and general ambience was so calming and Lynne’s hospitality and generosity was wonderful! Including her homemade apple pie, fresh farm eggs and chutney, and the ever present sensitive touches that she sprinkles around the property. We got to pet and feed the donkeys, horses and cows and learn about her eco imprint in this world. Highly recommend you stay here, be it in a dome or caravan. Recommend you book a reiki treatment or meditate at the dromedan , or do yoga at sunrise on the Sataya deck or just walk and enjoy the property. Everything is authentically and sustainably operating for the greater good of the environment and the animals and gardens under Lynne’s gentle care. You won’t be disappointed and we will be back!!
