Telco Host Farm, Roma

Telco is a mixed grazing property set at the northern end of the Murray / Darling Basin and offers a country experience for the whole family. 45 minutes north of Roma, it is accessible by road, bus, plane or train to Roma, or use the property’s own airstrip.

Depending on the season, you may wish to be involved with feeding cattle, goats or deer; see claving or kidding; mustering or branding; milking or egg gathering. Perhaps you may prefer to simply relax and enjoy the peace and serenity as you go bush walking, swim in the dam or pool, play tennis or fish.

Children will enjoy the variety of wildlife: tours of the property may sight goannas, echidnas, bustards, perhaps a koala, but certainly kangaroos and wallabies. Near the house they can make friends with the resident geese, peacocks, chooks, ducks, guinea fowl, pig, dogs, cats, cockatoo, alpacas and often bottle feed a joey and baby goats.

Spotlighting around the homestead reveals possums and bettongs under an amazing star-filled sky. Use the telescope to further your knowledge of stars you can see without the interruption of street lights.

Accommodation is comfortable in the spacious downstairs area of a large Queenslander. There’s an open dining area and lounge, equipped with books, games, television, video and DVD; a bathroom with shower and bath; and a kitchen should you prefer to self cater. The alternative is to join the family upstairs for meals – breakfast on the deck, afternoon tea on the verandah, home-cooked dinners and yarn about the day in the country.

Australia's Best Beaches

Australia has miles and miles of shoreline but which beaches are really great? Ultimately it depends on what you're looking for in a beach. Pristine wilderness without a single footprint in sight, the sparkle of cosmopolitan high rise on the waters edge, the adrenalin pumping roar of a powerful surf beach, or quite simply the perfect white squeaky sand that squelches between your toes. See our short list of Australia's best beaches.
