Farm stays on the Sunshine Coast are made for reconnecting with yourself and the earth.

We’re talking leisurely outdoor breakfasts surveying grazing cows, days spent fishing for bass in sparkling freshwater streams, collecting fresh eggs from the coop, and toasting marshmallows under the stars. Whether you’re here for the muddy gumboots and animal feeding, or the log fires and secluded countryside views, we invite you to explore the best of our farm stay experiences.  

Animal-lovers 

Take a scenic journey through the the Hinterland and discover the idyllic beauty of Seven Peaks Farm Stay, which boasts unmatched views of the Glass House Mountains, and an abundance of friendly farmyard residents. For all things cute and cuddly, look no further than the adorable alpacas and miniature goats at Blackwattle Farm. Better yet, Seven Peaks Farm Stay and Blackwattle Farm are only a short drive from the iconic Australia Zoo.
