Farming family diversifies with luxury dome accommodation

January 12, 2022 Leave a Comment

FacebookPinEmailTweet

Located in the New South Wales region of Warialda (400 km south-west of Brisbane), Faraway Domes is one of the more unique travel destinations weโ€™ve come across. Created to diversify one familyโ€™s farming operation during the drought, the luxury domes are located on a 9000-acre mixed farming operation, and theyโ€™ve proved incredibly popular over the last year. In fact, with capacity rates an all-time high, the owners Jaime and Belinda Munsie have just added a new five-star dome to the offering.

Faraway Domes

โ€œItโ€™s been so rewarding to see how many people want to travel to outback Australia and experience what we have to offer, while enjoying first class comfort,โ€ says Belinda, who has entertained people from all over Australia as well as from Canada, the UK, China, USA and Switzerland since launching the business.

The deluxe eco-retreat was created with comfort and luxury in mind, with each dome featuring air conditioning, an ensuite, a fully functional kitchen and an elevated private deck. Guests can also book in an in-dome massage or beauty treatment during their stay too.

A fabulous new addition to the property, the new luxury geodesic dome features a fire pit, king size bed, private plunge pool and an outdoor bath that overlooks spectacular outback views. The additional dome is perfect for couples visiting with friends, with the option of renting out both domes at the same time.

โ€œWith occupancy rates currently at 86%, things are slowly getting back to normal after lockdowns, so weโ€™re hoping more travellers can get out to experience why regional and rural Australia is so unique,โ€ says Belinda.

“There really is nothing else like it. Our wildlife, birdlife, views, walking trails and the astonishing landscape draws guests back on repeat visits. For people who love the outdoors and enjoy a touch of bush luxury, a stay at Faraway Domes is a must,” says Belinda and Jaimeโ€™s daughter Kate Munsie.

Faraway Domes offers accommodation from $485 per night, twin share.

When interior designer @sarah_yarrow was renovatin When interior designer @sarah_yarrow was renovating her 50s home to sell she was determined to move away from the cookie cutter flip to sell look and went for something warmer, paying homage to its roots.

"People are much more likely to connect with something that feels warm and friendly and that doesnโ€™t feel like the home up the street, or the one that their friend has just bought. And once they connect, they usually pay more,โ€ she said. Sarah believes people usually crave a homely feel but donโ€™t know how to create it themselves

This family home is next level. Literally! A stee This family home is next level. Literally!

A steeply sloping block isn't a typical prerequisite when building a new home. But it was for Perth architect Sam Klopper and his family who desired an elevated balcony (hello roof terrace!) AND a back yard that was accessed from the living area. And wow, they sure made the best of it!

We've entered an exciting phase in our home: non-s We've entered an exciting phase in our home: non-synthetic rug land!

With two young boys, I've always advocated for the synthetic and easily scrub-cleanable rug! Now they'reย a bit older and observing the shoes-off and no-food-in-the-living-room rules, I thought it was time! And I'm in love with our bold newย @castleryau Lorenzo Wool Rug.

You can't beat the luxurious look and feel of wool and I've also stepped outside my comfort zone with a design that stands out rather than blends in. Get me!

Can someone remind the kids about the keep-the-toys-in-the-playroom rule though?!

Would you be brave enough to go for a cream wool rug in your house?!

This rug is on display at Castlery's popup at Moore Park SupaCenta until October.
