Beechmont Estate

staycation 🇦🇺 Beechmont：寧靜與自然的完美結合 幾天前，我在澳大利亞昆士蘭州的Beechmont度過了一個愉快的假期，這個地方給我留下了深刻的印象。Beechmont位於黃金海岸腹地，這裏不僅有迷人的自然景觀，還有寧靜的氛圍，是遠離城市喧囂的理想之地。 ### 自然美景：賞心悦目的體驗 Beechmont的自然環境令人歎為觀止。無論是晨曦中的霧氣還是黃昏時的落日，每一刻都彷彿是一幅美麗的畫卷。我特別推薦去Lamington國家公園，這裡有豐富的徒步路線，可以觀賞到壯麗的瀑布和茂密的雨林。整個公園生態系統保存完好，野生動物隨處可見，鳥類愛好者特別會喜歡這裏。 ### 住宿體驗：舒適與温馨並存 我入住了一家位於山頂的小型精品酒店，房間寬敞舒適，裝飾温馨。酒店提供的早餐非常豐盛，有新鮮的水果、麪包和當地特產。特別要提的是，房間的露台可以俯瞰整個山谷，美景一覽無餘，早晨在鳥鳴中醒來，真是一種難得的享受。 ### 當地美食：純正的鄉村風味 Beechmont的餐飲體驗也令人滿意。我們在一家家庭經營的咖啡館品嚐了當地的特色菜餚，新鮮的食材和淳樸的烹飪方式讓人難以忘懷。特別推薦這裏的有機農場，遊客可以品嚐到最新鮮的蔬菜和水果，還有機會親手採摘。 除了徒步和自然觀光，Beechmont還有許多其他活動可以參加。比如，熱氣球之旅可以讓你俯瞰整個山谷的壯麗景色；如果你喜歡冒險，可以嘗試滑翔傘，從高空中俯瞰這個美麗的地方。 ### 總結：值得一遊的靜謐天堂 總的來説，Beechmont是一個集自然美景、舒適住宿和豐富活動於一體的完美度假勝地。這裏的每一處景色都能讓人放鬆身心，是一次遠離喧囂、親近自然的理想之旅。我非常推薦

We recently stayed at Beechmont for a couple of nights to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Everything we really want to say has already been mentioned in the reviews by others, but there are a couple of things I want to say, First of all, we loved our time at this special place. The staff were sensational and to be greeted each morning at the door of the dining room by Scott was terrific. The breakfasts were plentiful in size and catered to our minor dietary needs that we had been previously asked about. I really enjoyed the little glass of yoghurt on the first morning (once my wife had eaten the sprinkled nuts off the top). The scrambled eggs were excellent, but I am not a fan of bacon cooked really crispy like Americans seem to like it. The cherry tomatoes with chopped garlic was excellent. We did not leave the property during our stay, and had our picnic hamper on the balcony, which had heaps of sun, and no wind. The hamper had luscious goodies and there was more than we could eat. Of particular note was the very small sweet pickled onions. We loved our food at dinner on the first night. I had quail as entrée and the pork for main. Both excellent dishes (although I would not serve seeded mustard and cold apple puree. Dijon mustard and warm apple would be my preference). On the second night, after being “entertained” by Jack at the bar, we had our dinner. There was a leek and potato soup with shaved truffle from the degustation menu and it was absolutely sensational. My wife had the cod for her main and pronounced it as being top quality. Sadly, my wagyu cap was a complete disappointment, being chewy and grisly. It had a nice taste, but was inedible. There are a number of minor matters that I mention in the spirit of helpfulness. (In my working life, I ran one establishment of 1000 beds and another of 450 beds). We were placed in an accessible room, at our request, and the bathroom was excellent. I would consider having a heater installed in the bathroom, because it was freezing. I noticed a previous reviewer mentioned water from the shower going all over the floor in the accessible bathroom. We did not find this at all – the trick is to lower the shower rose, point it towards the wall and if possible hold it in one hand to wash yourself. I would also have a chair placed in the main room as there was nothing other than the bed to sit on. Also, perhaps a rug/mat in the room might give a feeling of warmth. I loved the combustion fire, but sadly, my wife was affected by the very small amount of smoke she sensed. I realise that the property is in the countryside, but we found we had to brush down the tables and chairs on the balcony to get rid of the cobwebs. I’m guessing this would be a never-ending chore for cleaning staff. There is also a need for some of the walls and the door frames to be cleaned, but I am being petty about that. Finally, I want to comment on the cost. There is no doubt that the price for 2 nights plus dinne

What an amazing property and more importantly the overall guest experience. We stayed for two nights in April and from the moment you enter the gated Estate it’s a magical place to just relax and do everything or do nothing. We had a warm greeting as we arrived and luggage was packed onto a buggy and we were driven to our luxury pavilion just a short distance from the restaurant and bar area. Our room had fantastic views into the woodland as well as views to the polo field. The room was well appointed with a fantastic bed, lounge area, wood fire, outdoor terrace, large bathroom with a rain shower and a seperate bath that overlooked the fantastic view, sipping champagne, watching the world by and the wallabies almost at the window was fantastic. The dinning experience on our first night was a five course degustation menu with matching wines was absolute fantastic and as they source so much of their food locally it certainly took the dinner to an even higher level, well done chefs great technique and detail, the service was fantastic and Jack really did make the whole evening, when you get food and service together at this level it’s really on point. Breakfast the next day was fantastic, certainly again hats off to the kitchen, we had organised a picnic hamper for lunch but due to the rain we asked what other options we had, the lady we spoke with basically said where ever you want, and there are a lot of options, we decided to have it on the terrace just off from the restaurant, so blankets were arranged picnic basket set up and a bottle of champagne on ice and we had a fantastic time, again service and food second to none. We then hit the spa in the afternoon for two hours of bliss, small and intimate with two treatment rooms but the quality of the products and the first class service was just brilliant. We decided for our last dinner just to order off the a la carte menu, just three courses with matching wines, again Jack was the star again as to the service, the food incredible. We will be back as we have travelled a lot and this estate is very special. Thanks team Roy and Daniel
