Head to Monto in the North Burnett for a weekend at Bloodwood Cabin farm stay. You won’t regret the four hour drive from Brisbane.The sunken bath, the stars and the silence are guaranteed to revive your spirits. Your host is Carly Baker-Burnham who is fourth generation born and bred in the area. Carly wants to help build a strong community, a place to visit and a place where young people want to stay. The region has a rich history in dairying, timber, cattle and mining. It is the home of a beautiful old theatre, the Rex. Built in the 1930’s, the Rex was the cultural heart of the region. But it’s glory days were long past until Carly and her community decided to revive the Rex, create an arts hub and rebuild pride in the town. Monto now boasts an art trail, street murals, a community art centre and shop, a couple of old-time pubs, real butcher shops, fabulous scenery good coffee.
