AN AWARD WINNING BED AND BREAKFAST, A HERITAGE LISTED WILDLIFE SANCTUARY AND AN ORGANIC TROPICAL FRUIT FARM
THE B&B HAS CLOSED AND EDEN, THE PROPERTY IS ON THE MARKET - for information about the property contact Morgan Shearer, LJ Hooker, Darwin, NT. Tel: 08 89824 0900.
Treat yourself to stay at Eden, a certified organic tropical fruit farm located between Fogg Dam Conservation Reserve and Harrison Dam. Eden is home to prolific species of birds, butterflies, wallabies and other wildlife.
Awake each morning to birdsong. Will the Rainbow Pitta be the first to call? In the evenings listen for calls of the Bush Stone Curlew, Orange-footed Scrub Fowl, Barking Owl, Large-tailed Nightjar and perhaps the howl of dingoes. Wander around our garden and enjoy the heliconias, gingers, orchids, bromeliads, curcumas and many different coloured frangipani (Plumeria), etc. Take walks to explore the native bush, wildlife or the orchard. Then cool off in our salt water pool or relax on the lounges on the veranda with a book or binoculars. After dark is the opportunity to go spotlighting for night birds, frogs, etc while taking advantage of clear skies for incredible star gazing.
Guests are treated with fresh organic produce and homemade food including delicacies and conserves from fruit on our property.
