Brockhurst Farm

Brockhurst Farm offer dog-friendly accommodation in a scenic country farm retreat less than an hour from Brisbane and with superb views over the D’Aguilar ranges.

Part of a working farm that has cows, horses, sheep, goats and hens, the secluded rustic cabins are perched on ridges around the property and are a great option for family and friend get-togethers, Woodford Folk Festival-bound revellers, social groups and wedding and function accommodation.

The three cabins range in size from 1 to 2 and 4 bedrooms, and combined, can sleep up to 22 guests. Otherwise the 1-bedder sleeps 4-6, the 2-bedder 5-7 and the 4-bedder 10-12 (all include a double sofa in the lounge). Each country style cabin features wood panelled walls, open plan kitchen/dining/lounge, BBQ, covered patio with views and woodfired heater and is fully-fenced for dogs (which are not allowed inside).

Not just a great place to breathe country air, take in the panoramic views and relax, guests and their (well-behaved) dogs have access to most of the property, including the freshwater dam (which comes with a floating raft ‘pontoon’ and boards and noodles to float on), the picnic table on the far hill (a must-visit with nibblies at sunset).

Freshy-laid eggs are available to buy for a breakfast cook-up and a bonus is the ability to feed the horses who amble up in the afternoons for carrots (look in cabin’s fridge for a provided packet and BYO).

Nice to know - For those with children who want to get right into the farming life, Brockhurst Cabins also offer a Farmstay Package where children aged 3-14 years can take a lead-horse ride, double on a quad bike and some hands-on morning farm activities like feeding animals. 

Good to know - Brockhurst Cabins also have a dedicated wedding lawn and pavilion and can cater for bridal and wedding guests.

Things to do nearby – Visit the picturesque and historic town of Dayboro, take a bushwalk at Mt Mee, picnic at The Gantry, breakfast or lunch on weekends at The Pitstop Cafe, swim at the natural rock waterhole Rocky Hole, visit the Dayboro llama farm, Ocean View Estates Winery, dine at Birches Restaurant and, in Dec-Jan get a dose of the Woodford Folk Festival.
