We brought our kids here when they were about 7 or 8 years old and they loved it. They have been asking for years to return. Yep, we made it almost ten years later. ||We were not disappointed. ||Again we used the shearers quarters. At first we thought we may have been too hot during the night but it was very comfortable. One disappointing thing was that the care takers had their caravans behind the quarters so you could not just look out to the paddock and down to the creek like last time. Also could hear their radios. ||Next time, and there will be a next time we will bring the camping gear and head down to the creek. ||This is the perfect spot to step back in time and stop to just listen to the world breath. I think that one night is just not enough though. We will need to stay for at least 3 nights next time. ||There are lovely little cottages to stay in or you could bring a caravan if camping of the shearers quarters are not your thing. This place is perfect for all age groups. ||Jondaryan woodshed specialise in weddings with a country feel. The beauty of having a wedding here is you can party under the stars and in the shearing shed until you are ready to rest on site. Plus your friends and family can stay on too without having to pay those big city prices. ||Truly a must see for every Queenslander. Come on an visit the home of the Jackie Hhowe singlet. ||If you live in the South East corner of Queensland it is only about 2 and half hours...

Read moreLoved this place! Family of 4 bunked it for the night in the comfy shearers cabins. Superb amenities block right outside. Kids love wandering through the woolshed, and the pioneer buildings, giving them some idea of what it was like for early settlers and their families. Sadly we arrived a week after the big Jackie Howe festival so there wasn't much else going on around the site. An animal nursery/farmyard kept the kids entertained as well as the undercover fire pit in the camp kitchen. Beautifully quiet and quaint, a few caravans pulled in for the night but woke to birds chirping and a lovely sunrise. The woolshe itself is just enormous and well worth a wander through. Plenty of old machinery, trucks, tractor, windmills, an original old dairy and cheese factory and loads of historical displays and info to check out. Definitely worth a visit for anyone of any age!
