THIS
MONTHS ADVENTURE
TYRCONNELL GOLD MINE
Recent
travelers have fallen in love with the uniqueness and lure
of the property Tyrconnell Gold Mine.
Tyrconnell is located in pristine Australian bush; 2½ hours
drive from Cairns and 35km from Dimbulah, the nearest town.
The owners of Tyrconnell, Cate Harley & Andy Bell help you
relive the charm of the by gone Gold Mining era. Try your
luck at gold panning, explore the surrounding area - climb
Mount Milligan for a spectacular view of the Atherton Table
region.
Cate's
background in Cultural design has been a great asset in the
creation of their four beautifully restored Miners cottages.
Encompassing an "Australiana" sense to the cottages, the corrugated
iron structures give you a feel of the yester year. Including
fabulous ensuite bathrooms with claw-foot bath tubs to relax
in after great day spent exploring Tyrconnell.
Of
late Cate and Andy in their capacity as wildlife carers are
about to take charge of another furry baby. This time a 4
and a half-month-old male Wallaroo, still in his (synthetic)
pouch and demanding warm milk every 4 hours! Cate and Andy
say "He is really beautiful" and they will let us know when
he arrives. Cate also said that "Ruby their 2 year old Eastern
Grey Kangaroo is bound to be very jealous."
Please
note, in the next few weeks we will be arranging a time where
you will be able to converse with Cate and Andy in our Bush
Telegraph chat room.
