5 Reasons to Stay in the Bush
Longing to get away? We think that the bush should be your next holiday destination. Here’s five of the many reasons why it’s great to #stayinthebush!
1. Experience a different lifestyle.
You don't have to travel abroad to get the thrill of a culture shock. Just travel inland! The climate is different, the people are different, the way of life. Try a hands-on farm stay experience learning about where your food and fibre come from or visiting the country pub for a meal.
Be prepared to experience great conversations and unique community spirit. But be careful.... the bush has a way of seeping into your bones a little. You may never want to leave!
2. Slow down.
If you need to experience a slower pace of travel, we totally get it! We believe the bush offers the space to slow down, breathe, and recover from a busy schedule. Take time to soak up bush life and notice the little things that are beautiful.
3. Immerse yourself in nature.
It goes without saying, but staying in amongst nature is going to be the most refreshing getaway you could have. Find a quiet stream to cast a line, picnic in the paddock, catch yabbies fresh from the creek. Take time to explore the local national parks or walking trails and, of course, don’t forget to look up. We have the best views for stargazing!
4. Find hidden gems.
You may be surprised at what you can find off the beaten path! Sometimes it's getting lost that leads you to life's greatest treasures.
5. Support small businesses.
It’s important to Buy From The Bush by shopping local during your stay. There are so many stunning boutiques & family-run businesses waiting to be discovered. Be sure to leave room when you’re packing for all the goodies you’ll want to take home!
Some small bush towns are, in part, kept alive by tourism. When you choose to stay in the bush, you’re making a positive impact by investing in the future of rural communities.
