Keira Billy If you really want to soak up some farm ambience, stay a night or two here at Keira Billy. There’s an outdoor tub a few paces from your cottage and a big shady veranda overlooking cattle yards – a nice bit of rustic eye candy as the sun dips over yonder. The fully self-contained cottage sleeps up to six and has a fire pit out the front with log seating. This is a home away from home among the gum trees! Keira Billy is located on Keira Farm, a working sheep and cattle property just 20 minutes from the Ipswich CBD. Find Keira Billy at Keira Farm, Cunningham Highway, Mutdapilly.

Naughty Little Kids “Great fun for the family”

TripAdvisor traveller crossi02, 1 February 2018 Such a cute name and gelato too! This farm is another popular choice for families, foodies and animal lovers who can meet the herd and enjoy goats milk gelato or cheese – or stock up to take some home. Watch out for big open days and special events throughout the year which are particularly popular. Find Naughty Little Kids at 1531 Ipswich Boonah Road, Peak Crossing.

Summerland Camels TripAdvisor Rating

from 48 reviews.

On the Ipswich/Scenic Rim border, this large farm offers truly memorable experiences. From the moment you arrive through the big front gates, a suitably hump-ish looking skyline comes into view as a backdrop to the tall herds. There are many experiences and special events to be enjoyed here. For $2 you can grab a bag of Lucerne and feed the animals, or splash out on a ride around the gardens or the farm. The café and shop are well stocked with camel milk products and you can sip your camel-cino on the verandah with lovely views across the farm to that mountain backdrop. Find Summerland Camels at 8 Charles Cauvel Drive, Harrisville.
