Myself, my wife and two kids were visiting the region for a long weekend in November. Our stay at Teak Tree Farm exceeded every expectation we had of a rural getaway. The property is absolutely stunning, lovingly restored from its original state dating back to the early 1900s. It has a very calming, welcoming and homely feel to it with some amazing touches. Tina has a small shelf showcasing some of the original building materials and a few other trinkets found during restoration. The kids loved looking at the old photos and some of the old rusty building materials. The outlook is incredible, with views from pretty much every angle of the property. The main verandah was our favourite place to be from sunrise through to sunset. It overlooks the swimming pool so you can sit there with a few drinks and safely watch the kids swim as the cows wander past in the background. There’s a large dining table outside with plenty of room for entertaining. We also managed to crank up the fire pit for sunset and toasted a few marshmallows as the clouds and landscape changed colour. The property is only a short drive from Mullumbimby, which is a charming, creative and quirky country town with amazing coffee, food and some great old pubs. Byron Bay and the beaches are also only about 20 mins away. If you want to slow down the pace of life, breath some fresh air and reconnect with the family, I highly recommend Teak Tree Farm.
