I considered not posting this review, but ultimately I think I would have appreciated a warning.
We stayed at this venue as a group of women, and the venue itself is lovely. Unfortunately, our experi...ence with the male owner overshadowed what should have been an enjoyable stay.
While some of our group were using the spa facilities, he made inappropriate comments about their bodies. After that, he was frequently present around the property, which made everyone increasingly uncomfortable.
On the second night, at around 10:45 pm, he parked and left his quad bike running near the guest rooms while several people were asleep. It was extremely noisy, and as he had already been around the property multiple times that day, we politely approached him to ask how much longer he would be there. He became very agitated, started yelling at us, and then grabbed one of our guests by both arms while yelling at us never to come back.
The following day, the female owner apologised. During that conversation, she said she wasn't surprised to hear our concerns because similar issues had occurred previously. She also tried to explain his behaviour by saying that he sometimes didn't understand what was appropriate.
It was a very unpleasant experience that left our group feeling uncomfortable and unsafe. Based on our experience, I would not recommend this venue to groups of women. The property is isolated, and after what happened, we did not feel comfortable.

Chris and Christine were lovely and their train carriage experience was amazing! We had everthing we needed (including a beautiful complimentary wine) and the bedrooms, bathrooms, etc were clean and c...omfortable. Everything was such good quality and Chris and Christine checked in to make sure everything was ok. The animals on the property provided our young kids with so much happiness and entertainment. The horses were beautiful! To top it off, we had a quick dip in the authentic wood fired hot tub... amazing! We'll certainly be back and hopefully stay for longer next time. Dan, Donna, Kal, Em and the girls 🥰

JerraPark is a 16 hectare (40 acre) farm, born in 1991 from one man’s dream concept of developing a sustainable living system.

Whian Whian Falls
Located just outside of the town of Dunoon in the Northern Rivers, Whian Whian Falls is a great spot for a picnic and swim. Once you have parked there is a small dirt track along a property fence. If you follow that well-worn path, it will lead you straight to paradise.
Border Ranges National Park
Border Ranges National Park (31,683 hectares), a World Heritage listed rainforest park on the rim of a vast and ancient volcano, adjoins Lamington National Park in Queensland. It stretches 85 kilometres from east to west. It forms part of the caldera of the Mount Warning shield volcano, the largest caldera in the southern hemisphere. It can be viewed from a range of lookouts with bush walks and picnic areas.
Border Ranges National Park has spectacular views, pristine rainforests, and waterfalls plunging into deep gorges, sparkling creeks, steep scarps and rugged ridges.
