About the host
Hosted by Sally Gray
I have been a host now for 15 years since I built The Long Weekend Retreat, Lake Conjola - way before the official airbnb days! Then in 2016 I transformed our sweet workers cottage, Queen Bee in Milton into a magical little South Coast foodie and village escape place.
I love the journey of creating a space, imagining what will make guests stay simply perfect, piecing together something unique and unforgettable.
My own professional journey has taken me through many disciplines and places; from art curator, to house painter, bush regenerator and today, with my partner Graham, we manage Piccaninny Plains Wildlife Sanctuary in Cape York for the Australian Wildlife Conservancy.
We are absolutely wildly passionate about nature and preserving and protecting Australia’s wild country and wildlife.
During those times when we are busy managing country, our incredible little team of helpers keeps everything perfect and running like clockwork for our guests at Queen Bee Cottage, Milton and The Long Weekend Retreat, Millstream.
Every guest is special to me, so I can't wait to have the chance to welcome you!
