After spending a few nights in a city flat, or days on the road, there is nothing more peaceful than sleeping in Jean and Adam's place with only the sound of the creek to send you to sleep. We got a sense of a very relaxed pace of life in this lovely cottage. It is truly a lovely place to stay and is set up to make a couple very comfortable. The bed is just right with crisp cotton linen, a cosy duvet and good reading lamps. We liked the outdoor access to the bathroom because it night we could take a few steps onto the verandah and see a truly star studded sky - I haven't seen the Milky Way so clearly for a long time.
The kitchen is outstanding which is a rarity in holiday properties, and thoughtfully provided with fruit and even eggs from the resident hens.
We made several trips to the nearby forest areas, though the local forest is lush too and a nice little walk up the road. Springbrook National Park is nearby and we could have spent more days taking the various walking tracks thorugh the rain forest.
We were a little surprised at how badly damaged Porters Road was by Cyclone Debbie and when we arrived it still looked rather rough. But our little rental car had no trouble with the bumpy surface.
We couldn't recommend Jean and Adam's place more highly. Make sure you allow several days to really enjoy the ambience.
