the dairy
The Dairy is located behind an exotic cactus garden on our property and it was inspired by the original old dairy on our farm. With simplicity and luxury at the forefront we have built a two bedroom home behind the old dairy. The Dairy has been designed to enhance the magnificent hinterland views from every room. Moody interiors feature locally crafted furniture and unique fittings in the space. You could be anywhere in Tuscany but in fact you are only 15 to 20 minutes from the beaches of Byron Bay and Lennox Head.
The old dairy building has had many uses over the past 40 + years. It was originally used as an actual dairy when the current farm was part of a much larger land holding, and since then as horse stables. It has now been lovingly restored and retains the old dairy’s complete original facade and its structure, keeping the textures and tones of its unique timbers. For us it provides a contrast and connection between the beauty of the old and the new buildings.
accommodation & location hire
The Dairy is available for both accommodation and location hire. The Dairy includes two bedrooms (sleeps 4) and a spacious, open plan living area that showcases the rolling green hills of the hinterland through featured floor to ceiling glass. The Dairy is a textural feast from the dark moody interiors of the new Dairy building to the original raw timbers of the old dairy, making it a great location for photoshoots and small events. You can find all details regarding accommodation and location hire below.
