“We had a wonderful week staying in New Farm at Sue & Robs amazing and interesting house. Supernice communication and luckily we had the chance to meet them the night we arrived. Easy walk to grocery shopping in Merthyr Village, easy access to New Farm Park, City cat, riverwalk and several restaurant/cafe options around the corner. Highly resommended!!!”

About our home
Interesting, functional home designed by an award winning architect to take advantage of its position in exuberant New Farm. We are surrounded by cafés, restaurants, specialty shops, a supermarket, parks and river walks and less than 2 kms from the CBD of Brisbane and 1 km from the nightlife centre of Fortitude Valley. Easy half hour stroll along the river bank to the City or take the free river ferry or a short bus ride. The ferry will also take you to Brisbane's acclaimed Southbank parklands and Art Gallery and cultural centre.

Sue and Robert's reviews
As a host (6)“We had a wonderful time staying at this superb property. Just loves the locations! Communication was super and would certainly recommend this property. Thank you so much for letting us stay. ”
“Absolutely charming property owned by a couple who were endlessly generous and helpful. This was our first experience of a staying in a home swap and I doubt we'll better it. We arrived to a platter of fruit and a bottle of wine and left - after having had an accident - being told "don't worry, could have happened to anyone, no problem at all". The house is an architectural treat - the design is fascinating - and the area is great too. Shops and restaurants on the doorstep, a great park with a brilliant arts centre by the river is on the doorstep and Brisbane CBD is no distance away. If you're going to Brisbane then Sue and Robert's place would be a fantastic place to stay. ”
“Great hosts, wonderful home (open style to let the breeze in) and perfect location. New Farm is one of the best places to stay in Brisbane - close to the CBD, river and plenty of good cafes and restaurants. Stayed over a very hot weekend so having air conditioning in the bedroom was a godsend. Thanks Sue and Robert for allowing us into your home. ”
“Sue and Robert couldn't have given us a warmer welcome to their home! What wonderful hosts they are. Everything about their home was fabulous - the convenient location, the interesting modern architecture, the beautiful decor, the pristine pool, the amazing kitchen, the facilities provided, the thoughtful bowl of fruit and bottle of wine, and the list goes on... Thank you, Sue and Robert, for the perfect weekend stay in Brisbane.”
“Warm welcoming hosts. Lovely area and handy to shops, specially for excellent fruit. Plenty of cafes and restaurants to walk to (Vine was great). Open air design of house which would really suit tropical climate. We loved it. If you were an internet nut you may find the wifi a bit weak.”
