Great Aussie Eco Getaway !

Yabbaloumba Retreat was unexpectedly enjoyable......abit off the beaten track but very worthwhile. One is treated to spectacular Australian panoramic views and nature (bird watching) at it's best. WIFI and cellphone availability would have been good to have and also alternate days house cleaning. There is no restaurant at the retreat, so visitors will need to bring their own food, altho we were presented with a lovely Xmas hamper, with wine. The nearest town is Kenilworth, about 5 kms away, where there are restaurants & cafes. Otherwise, it was a great "chill" stay and we came away fully re-charged and rested !

What a find! The cabin had everything you need, a beautiful outlook, Kenilworth is a short drive away for supplies and Booloumba Creek is just down the road for hiking and exploring. Highly recommend.

What an amazing few days away. We loved the quiet, pristine and isolated location. Be aware there is no phone reception, and no wifi - but this ended up being exactly what we needed.

Barb and Lloyd's property is amazing. My wife and I enjoyed their hospitality and time off to recharge batteries. The cabins are very modern and all we needed was available to us. Great place to go away from the hustle and bustle. Highly recommend it :-)
