About the host

Hosted by Jacqueline and Richard

Host profile image
We fell in love with this property because of its cool breezes and breathtaking views. It offers peace and quiet whilst being close to all amenities and holiday attractions. Our property fringes the National Park so we are very fortunate to see the local birdlife daily and we would love you to have this same experience. The area is an established leafy suburb that has the traditional charm of yesteryear Cairns, with both traditional Queenslander and contemporary style living. The green arrow accessed from the rear of the property is part of a network of walking tracks that are part of the National Park and are very popular with locals for hiking.
We have spent time restoring the property to offer you a comfortable stay and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
