We sailed the lovely yacht 'Shannon,' from Fiji to Australia, through the tail of cyclone Solo and a force ten storm between New Caledonia and Coffs Harbour. Now YOU can have the pleasure of staying on the quaint old boat but without fear of drowning! However...the main rule remains the same on land as it did on water, 'Don't Fall Off the Boat!'
'Inanna,' is a wonderful place for nature immersion, bird and wildlife spotting. How many baby kangaroos and wedge tail eagles can you spot? Watch the colours change throughout the day on the sandstone escarpment and treat yourself to a well earned digital detox. There is no wi-fi and very limited mobile coverage at 'Inanna.' It's really all about the nature and peacefulness.
Snuggle up beside the fire with a book and a complementary bottle of wine, swing in the hammock with your favorite music, enjoy a board game, a jigsaw, or a 4 km walk around the boundary of Inanna.

Children need to be 9 years and older to stay at 'Inanna,' as they need to have the physical dexterity to walk safely on the boat deck.

Inanna is a great base from which to explore numerous magnificent walks in the Grampians National Park, local wineries and the affordable Bunyip Hotel, which prides itself on paddock to plate cuisine.
