There are 15 acres in which to wander and relax. This Cottage is the larger of our two cottages and accommodates up to 4 guests with a queen bed and a sofa bed that sleeps one adult or two children. The kitchen/dining area features a breeze through, giving the impressions of being outdoors, with the security of insect screens, and cafe style blinds in winter. The bathroom or “Loo with a view” is in a separate building a few steps away, elevated and also screened so that you can watch the birds and wildlife from your vantage point. Please note we have composting toilets. Full kitchen facilities allow you to self-cater for all meals. Coffee and tea are provided. There is a common area in which you can enjoy the fireplace, barbecue or perhaps cook your own pizzas in the wood fired pizza oven (additional $25 for firewood). Piccabean Cottage has an eco-friendly design, constructed with the sun, wind, rain and the seasons in mind which minimises the need for power (mostly solar), heating, and cooling. Many sustainable and reclaimed materials have also been incorporated in the construction. An abundance of native animals call Palmwoods Eco Escape home. In particular, you are sure to enjoy the birdlife. We also have happy chickens. There is a second Cottage on the property - Turmeric Cottage - for those who might be travelling with friends or family. Guests are welcome to explore much of the 15acre property. Surfaces are uneven and may be slippery. Walking shoes are encouraged. There is lots to see and do on the Sunshine Coast. In Palmwoods there are several local eateries including the popular Rick's Garage, repurposed as an American 50's diner, with big burgers and a whiskey bar upstairs. On a Thursday night and weekend lunch you'll often see a surprising array of classic cars and bikes. It is only a short drive to Montville, Maleny and the famous Eumundi Markets. Palmwoods Eco Escape is 3.8km from Palmwoods Railway Station and 24km from Sunshine Coast airport. A local bus terminates 1km away, with two daily services, Monday to Friday. Other bus routes service the bus stop near the railway station. Please note that children 10 years or older are welcome to stay on the property. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen -
