For a truly Australian Outback experience, consider a visit to Myella Farmstay, and enjoy the real Queensland. The farmstay is very activity based, however you can do as much or as little as you like. You can get involved or relax. Guests enjoy the informal schedule and the fact that they are staying on a real farm. Myella offers Australian Farmstay in Queensland - authentic and memorable.

Myella Farmstay is located a mere one and a half hours drive west of Rockhampton, the capital of the Central Queensland region. Yet you will feel far away from the real world - you may find it hard to go back to the hustle and bustle of city life! Enjoy real Queensland Outback hospitality and try horseback riding - see sunsets where the colours are beyond imagination and breathe in the atmosphere of the Aussie bush.The horse riding tours are one of the greatest assets, and have become a specialized activity that is somewhat unique compared to other trail riding tours. Ride through the wide-open fields of Myella on horses that are loved and cared for. If you are a beginner or an experienced rider there will be a horse to suit you. We ride daily for a minimum of 2hrs. Experienced riders are impressed with the quality of the horses offered. You have the chance to ride freely over the landscape and once a week we move cattle.

Discover the beauty of the bush while you ride along the marked tracks. Motorbike lessons are offered daily and a farm tour is offered during each farm stay. The farm tour is guided in the 4WD tray-back or following on the motorbikes. The farm tour offers the opportunity to discus farming issues and a family member will share knowledge about the farm and nature. Enjoy the scenic views of the farm in a style that is both educational and relaxed.

Guests enjoy the sunny weather, watching the sunset and learning about the stars. Learn to crack a whip, throw a lasso and divine for water. The family raise and release orphaned kangaroos. Help bottle feed the kangaroo or the calves. See a cattle auction Monday morning at the largest sale yards in Australia.

Enjoy country hospitality and share home cooked meals with the family in a relaxing outdoor dining area. Make a cup of tea and cook your toast on the campfire!

 

The basic breakfast menu consists of tea/coffee and toast made on the fire, fruit, a variety of cereals. Both lunch and dinner are served as a buffet. Lunch is cold meat, salads, pasta or soup or a hot dish. Olive cooks on the stove in the kitchen or outside on the campfire. Dinner consists of beef and vegetables, with great conversation and a lot of laughter. Home cooked biscuits at smoko add a special touch.

The homestead features polished timber floors. There is a central living area, a large shady verandah, TV, telephone, video library, laundry, email and swimming pool. There are twins, doubles and rooms for three and there are no dormitories or bunk beds.

On occasions increased numbers are accommodated in camper-vans, tents and swags. Sometimes the swags are used for camping out under the stars.

You will leave stiff, sore and dirty, but happy.

We look forward to seeing you, down on the farm.
