Kilcoy Farmstay

Please scroll down

Guests are free to wander over the 300 Acre working cattle property or how about a hike to the many scenic viewpoints on the slopes of Mt Goonerringerringi.

Close by at Mt Kilcoy are nature walks through unspoilt rain forest, complete with native fauna and meandering springs.

Somerset Dam village is 15 minutes away. Lake Somerset Holiday Park, where you can put in a boat; go water skiing, swimming or fishing, is just 1km.

You can walk down to the water's edge from the farmhouse in just a couple of minutes.

Within easy driving distance you will also be able to go skydiving, take joy flights, go on horse trails and taste the ever popular cheeses and wines in the region.
More details appear below.

Relax at the Catchment Cafe Somerset or have a coffee at Chantilly Blue Kilcoy. Both quality establishments.

The two authentic Aussie Pubs in town provide first class fare. Visit the Kilcoy Art Gallery located in the Art & Craft/Tourist Info Centre and Historical Society Centre in Hope Street or join the Kilcoy Unplugged Group who meet on the 1st & 3rd Wednesdays of each month at the Kilcoy bowls club to listen to Bush Poetry or country artists or just come and relax in the beautiful, peaceful, natural surroundings.
