Accommodation

Gunnebah accommodates all guests in private rooms in our charming mudbrick bungalows. Most rooms open out onto covered patios, with outdoor furniture and native gardens. Each room is simple, clean and attractive with comfy beds, storage space, beautiful bedding, soft towels, tissues and drinking water. Bathrooms and toilets are shared.

Hall

It is suitable for a wide range of activities for large or small groups.

The hall’s large, magnificent wooden doors open up to a level space for outdoor activities, leading down to a magical creek (home to turtles and platypus) and an outdoor fire pit.

Consultation and Therapy Rooms

Private consultation locations are set away from the other buildings for individual counselling or therapy sessions.

Lounge & Dining

Gunnebah’s lounge and dining area is its ‘community’ hub. Built well away from the hall and accommodation, to create a separate social space, it is perfect for chatting, listening to music, games, reading and dining. Built from mud bricks, with exquisite stained glass it holds great charm and character.

There are a number of outdoor eating areas, providing diners with relaxed, natural environments overlooking the garden. Spaces include year round ‘indoor/outdoor’ enclosed and weather proof dining areas, as well as outdoor café style tables and chairs.

Inside, there is an ample servery area, a hot drink station, and a lounge area with comfy couches, fireplace, coffee table, an interesting library and DVD and CD collection.

Catering

Nutrition is one of the key elements of your recovery and Gunnebah takes pride in providing a wide variety of delicious and healthy meals. In addition to eating healthy food, you will also have the opportunity to learn a range of related cooking skills, if desired. The hot drink station hosts a wide range of delicious black, green and herbal teas and coffee.

Pool

Gunnebah has a resort style saltwater swimming pool surrounded by sub tropical gardens and places to lounge.

Walks

Walk through lush fields or along our quiet street, passing contented cows, streams and natural forest. As a no-through-road it has little traffic.

A short drive away are beautiful beaches and national parks, including the iconic Mount Warning (which is the first place in Australia to see the sunrise). We will make sure that you have the chance to climb Mt Warning during your stay.

Produce Garden

Gunnebah has abundant produce gardens, with a range of fruit (paw paw, pineapple, mandarins, grapes, avocados, banana), vegetables (lettuce, potatoes, herbs, zucchini, rocket, broccoli, tomatoes) and edible flowers. You are welcome to get your hands dirty and experience gardening as a working meditation within your program.

Farm Animals

We have chickens, goats, cows and a couple of friendly dogs (a border collie and a jack russell). They are all part of the experience at Gunnebah. There is great therapeutic value in connecting with animals. If you want to, you can also learn about how to care for them and help out in this aspect of farm life.
