    Great location in a largely forested area, with a wonderful view into, and out over, rainforest slopes. Lovely timber house with spacious living room and large bedroom. The verandah is perched over a steep bush garden and was perfect for relaxing....

    De locatie is fantastisch, zeker het uitzicht vanaf de veranda. Contact met Dean is fijn en snel. Het is een eco-huis, dat voelt goed.

Hi I'm Dean.
Holiday Home with Valley Views & Beautiful Private Tropical Gardens. When you visit The Folly for a holiday, or a special celebration with family or friends, you’re entering a simply stunning environment that you’ll fall in love with, and remember fondly for years. A stylish post and beam house built by hand, from sustainable timbers; not merely a wonderful place sitting high on the hill with beautiful valley views, but an experience, a real taste of life in a tropical national park that many of our overseas friends tell us they have always been searching for, but never previously found. “A little piece of rainforest heaven, with simply stunning views, nestled in the heart of the beautiful Daintree National Park, a true treasure.” The Folly originally attracted us because of its absolutely amazing views right out across the breathtaking rainforest valley. Our superb deck provides charming vantage points overlooking our extensive tropical gardens where you will see birds, butterflies, numerous species of tropical plants and enjoy the outstanding Views.  The Folly, a Nature Retreat and holiday home. A place to relax and take a break, away from the crowds.
