Stonesthrow is a 106 acre rural property in the peaceful Illinbah Valley. Nestled between Beechmont and Canungra, we are about an hour (a stones throw) from the Gold Coast or Brisbane. Over time, the property has been used to farm goats, train racing camels and spell racehorses and is now a family hobby farm. We currently have three dogs, cows, horses and goats. We have goat food for purchase on site. 🐐

The Lower Sites are close to the beautiful shallow creek that meanders its way through the property. These sites have access to facilities - toilets, shed, kettle, fridge and a sink. Most of these sites are suitable for 2WDs and some sites are accessible to caravans. 

The Elevated Sites are located higher up, with stunning views of the valley. These sites are only accessible by 4WD and require you to BYO sealed, chemical camping TOILET and ensuite tent. Off-road camper trailers can access these sites however NO caravans.

🐾 Friendly dogs are welcome and must be kept on a lead when in close proximity to the cottage due to free range chickens. 

Please note, the availability of certain sites is weather-dependent.

> Despite the rain, we had an amazing experience. We will 100% come back and stay for longer. They had the cutest welcome party- 3 dogs, 2 adorable kiddos, goats and really kind parents. All the sites were beautifully well kept and accessible, lush views and great amenities. Was so nice to walk around the property and hear all the wildlife. They’ve created something to be inspired by 🙌🏾

There was so much for the kids to enjoy, and it was such a wholesome experience for all of us. The campsites…
