    Sarah, the hostess, has put so much thought into making guests welcome in her home. Although the kitchen and deck are shared areas, they do a brilliant job of disappearing to the background to give the visitors the full benefit. The home is...

    We enjoyed a lovely stay at Fig Tree cottage and would recommend it to anyone wanting a special night away immersed in nature and hosted by lovely locals. We stayed in the room with the private entrance next to the deck with steps to the hot tub....

    Peaceful, tranquil location. Sarah was a lovely host. Enjoyed the spa bath at night and the little treats left for us - shortbread and Pringles, and the fresh flowers. Would definitely love to stay again.

    We were made feel most welcome by Sarah. My husband and I went there to to have a rest and we certainly did. The location is very peaceful. The bed was also very comfy. Lots to do and see around beautiful Yeppoon.

    The serenity. The property is located close to Yeppoon so a very quick trip to the shops and beach. Sarah our host told us about a takeaway shop that cooks the best crumbed red emperor that I have eaten in a very very long time and at a reasonable...

    My husband I loved the outdoor area to enjoy a wine and cheese platter at night and again for our beautiful breakfast. Time in the spa was amazing also.

    The location is a short distance and an easy drive from Yeppoon itself, and situated just off the road in a delightful garden setting. The cottage accommodation is separate but attached to the main house, so the large kitchen and dining area is...

    This is a farm stay so the accommodation is attached to the owners' house. They provide a very large nicely furnished room with a dining table, sofa, chairs and a comfortable bed. Guests have access to the house kitchen which is quite well...

    Everything. We were initially a bit suss about the shared space situation and the privacy implications - as it turned out all was well. Our hosts were terrific. The self serve breakfast with home 'grown' eggs hit the spot.

Located 8 minutes north of Yeppoon, both rooms listed are part of our home. We have our own private living area at the back of the house. The Queen Deluxe Studio has its own private, secure entrance which leads to a comfortable lounge/dining area with complimentary snacks, fridge and TV. Adjoining the lounge is a spacious air-conditioned queen-size bedroom with views to the garden. A lockable sliding door gives access into the main house where you will find the guest bathroom. The King Room is accessed through our front door and is found right next to the guest bathroom. Choose your room and the other will be blocked so that you enjoy your stay exclusively. The outdoor heated spa is for your use and we invite you to share our beautiful outdoor deck, kitchen and dining areas. We respect your privacy but are also happy to share our local knowledge and get to know you during your stay. We hope you enjoy this peaceful paradise as much as we do!
I arrived in Australia for a holiday 30 years ago and fell in love with its diverse landscape and friendly, fun-loving people. I found my "happy place" in Yeppoon on the Capricorn Coast. I work full time and enjoy nothing more than kicking off my shoes, pouring a glass of wine and wandering around the property with my partner and our 2 rescue dogs. We check out what's in flower, enjoy the birds having there afternoon splash in the birdbaths, see if our bees are busy making honey and maybe pick some fresh herbs for dinner. We also enjoy plenty of fresh eggs from our free range chickens. Using Airbnb accommodation has made my experiences so much more personal with local knowledge being shared and friendships being made. I hope to return some of that hospitality by welcoming you into our home.
