About this property

Agape Grove Farm – Off-Grid Digital Detox Retreat


🌿 Agape Grove Farm – Off-Grid Eco Retreat

Imagine waking to birdsong, sunlight filtering through the trees, and the gentle stillness of nature all around you. Agape Grove Farm is a private, off-grid eco retreat designed for families, couples, and small groups seeking space, peace, and meaningful time together.

The farmhouse comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests with thoughtfully arranged sleeping spaces and two bathrooms:

Bedroom 1: Queen bed with private ensuite

Bedroom 2: Queen bed

Bedroom 3: Double sofa bed

Second bathroom conveniently located for shared use

The home features a modern kitchen with a gas stove, allowing you to cook your own meals with ease. There are multiple indoor and outdoor spaces to sit and relax, perfect for sipping a coffee, reading a book or two, or simply enjoying the quiet surroundings.

Spend slow mornings on the veranda, enjoy shared meals, explore the property, or unwind indoors with a curated library of books, DVDs, classical and calming music CDs, and a wide selection of board games—ideal for quality time together.

This is a true digital detox experience. There is no Wi-Fi on the property, and mobile reception is limited, encouraging guests to switch off from screens and reconnect with each other and nature. Reliable phone reception is available a short drive away if needed.

Surrounded by rainforest, paddocks, and abundant native wildlife, guests often spot kangaroos and wallabies in the early mornings and evenings. As with any rural bush setting, occasional wildlife encounters are part of the authentic farm experience.

Powered by solar energy and rainwater, Agape Grove Farm encourages mindful, respectful living. It’s a place to slow down, breathe deeply, and enjoy life at a gentler pace.

Whether you’re planning a family getaway, a romantic escape, or a peaceful retreat with friends, Agape Grove Farm offers a private, nature-immersed stay you’ll remember long after you leave.
