Creature comforts
Enjoy the comforts of home—including flush toilets, showers, and a kitchen.
A Unique former tiny home. The Cabin, Ghost Gum Gully is a couples romantic retreat unlike any other. Nestled in a gully of tall ghost gums, with wildlife at the back door and rustic in nature just like its surroundings. With Valley views to die for, and spectacular South East Queensland sunsets, The Cabin is private, romantic, eclectic and simply unforgettable. Couples can enjoy the healing rainwater in our twin outdoor baths...cooling in Summer and heated in Winter. Choose from multiple seating areas around the gardens and raised decks. Enjoy a good book or a glass of wine on the Chesterfield lounge in 'Nelly' the transformed shepherds hut. Take a drive or borrow our bicycles and travel to the creek at the end of our through road. Spot the wallabies, lorikeets, possum and our own cattle for great photo memories. A gorgeous Firepit, with seating, available in the winter months for toasting marshmallows with a glass of wine. You will leave The Cabin relaxed and renewed as if you have just had a months holiday abroad. Spoil yourself and your No1, book us before someone else does.The Cabin, Ghost Gum Gully is a unique former tinyhome, now tethered to the ground permanently. The Cabin, gives couples an escape from city, work, stress, or maybe even kids. The Cabin is surrounded by Tall Ghost Gums, birdlife, wildlife and clean country air. Being a tiny home it is exactly that, tiny and cosy and perfect. Stay and chillax or read a book, watch a movie, unwind by the fire pit, relax on the large private deck with a glass in hand, take a walk, loan our picnic blanket and fold up table and take our bikes to the creek for a picnic. Explore the local town of Laidley before or after your stay. The Cabin is best suited for couples only but can sleep two more adults on the pull out sofa bed. As the stairs are steep, and we have a dam on the property, we have a No Kids policy purely for the safety of guests children as we would hate for something to ever happen to a child. We also have a No Pets policy for the same reason. We have delicious grazing platters available to order, tractor rides (subject to availability of Driver), complimentary use of our bicycles. Enjoy the country serenity in magical surrounds. Outdoor baths coming soon.

The Cabin, Ghost Gum Gully
The cabin was fantastic. Quirky and cosy, with a great outdoor area to take in the amazing views. We loved our stay - thank you Cara for sharing your piece of paradise.

The Cabin, Ghost Gum Gully
If you want tranquillity in a beautiful natural setting surrounded by wildlife, then this is the place for you. The cabin is a combination of rustic charm and modern comforts. Awesome firepit area which is great for the cooler nights. The host Cara has thought of every little thing you will need. Decor is great - full of lots of little treasures and repurposed items. Plenty of music, books, and games to keep you entertained (there's also tv, wifi, etc if that's your thing). Hubby is 6'4" and had no problem with the loft bed.
