Best Farm Stays

in Southern Queensland Country

Updated: Apr 25, 2023

Want to experience life on the farm, without moving to the country? Then take a trip to Southern Queensland Country and swap your usual hotel digs for farm stay accommodation to try your hand at feeding chickens, pigs or horses from your overnight stay!

SQC Farm Stays

From cabins to Queenslanders, we’ve got you covered with the best farm stay accommodation in the beautiful region, starting with these two: 

Just 90 mins south west of Brisbane this 5th generation property and farm stay produces traditional, organic pastured pork, pasture-fed lamb and beef. Gleneden offers fun and educational farm tours, workshops and interactive Australian pioneer heritage displays, with bush camping sites for overnight and short stays. Campers are welcome to join in the farm chores or just relax and enjoy the fresh air and scenery

For something closer to the amenities of a larger town but still with the peace and quiet of acreage, Hollow Tree Farm is a unique and stylish 2-bedroom cabin on 50 acres, just five minutes from Toowoomba’s CBD. Watch the horses graze in the paddock as you sip your morning coffee and cook up a feast on the outdoor BBQ as the sun goes down.

On your way to Toowoomba, why not show the kids how things were done in the old days and stop in at the Laidley Pioneer Village and Museum. Located south of the Laidley township, in the Lockyer Valley, the museum features a unique collection of machinery and old wares from our early pioneers. For the brave at heart, check out their “Paranormal Investigation” on the 12th June – a free 3 hour tour that will see you try to connect with the spirits of the location!

And that's not all - there are seven more fantastic farm stays in Southern Queensland Country - check them out HERE.
