Hubby and I stayed here for two nights on what was our first trip to far north Queensland. We had a truly lovely stay. The cottage was as described – built by the owner of the fruit farm, and thus had a slightly ‘rustic’ feel, which fit perfectly with the environment. There is a good level of privacy, and yet...

My partner and I stayed with Alison & Digby earlier this month. We chose their B&B based on TA reviews and were not disappointed. The "rooms" are individual huts, built entirely by Alison & Digby, and (as a previous reviewer wrote) it really was like staying in a private tree house! The creek was in full force and we loved...

Falling asleep next to small river while looking at the trees from your bed, what a great experience! The breakfast alone is a reason to go there with all the different types of local fruit and delivered to your deck. Our 2 kids (8 and 10) also loved the experience and were especially intrigued by the big (harmless) spiders surrounding... More

Cape Trib Exotic Fruit Farm was everything written about by others, and more!!! WONDERFUL!!! A real paradise. Digby and Alison are wonderful hosts, helpful, there when you want or need them for something, otherwise, unobtrusive in the best sense of the word. What a fantastic place and cottage. If you stay there, it's because you want to be in the... More

My husband and I stayed at Alison and Digby's beautiful property for two nights and although we only live in Cairns (2 hours drive) it felt like a million miles away. The rainforest that surrounds the two cabins is very picturesque and, despite being in Far North Queensland, it was cool and refreshing. The little stream just metres from our... More

My friends and I stayed here mid-Feb 2013. All of us have nothing but positive things to say about both the farm and the owners. We stayed in Hut #2 of their two huts, and it is pretty much right in the rainforest, with a little creek right outside the window. The farm is self-sustaining in terms of electricity (solar... More

If you stay in the exotic fruit farm, it is a great place to be on your own. You are in the middle of the rainforest, enjoy the sounds of the nature in the night. Also the breakfast is delivered directly to your own private deck which makes having breakfast just great. You also get a lot of information about... More

Do you get the picture? This place is WONDERFUL. The location is great - peaceful. The food was out of this world. We did not order breakfast in time for the second day we were there. However, Digby made the pancakes for us again but put another sauce on them and they were better than the previous day. We were... More

We stayed 3 nights over Christmas and had a wonderful time. Alison and Digby are wonderful hosts and even came round on Christmas day with a bottle of wine to share with us.

Alison and Digby are just wonderful hosts! Me, my boyfriend and his parents stayed at the 2 lodges for 2 nights. The lodges are just beautifully made and you feel like you're in the middle of the rainforest. We got amazing fruit served for breakfast along with a specialty (try the banana pancakes with black sapote!). We did the fruit... More
