About the host
Hosted by Skye Johnston
Ex city slicker with a background in property marketing & developing who ran for the hills and is winging it in the country after being hit with the breast cancer stick... along the way, I have adopted some rescue critters (horses, goats, bulls and chooks) and am trying my hand at rainforest regen, koala and native animal habitat restoration & organic farming..
Taking on the role of head guardian of Windaboo is by far the best decision I have ever made. I adore hosting people who see & feel the magic and healing qualities of this incredible property, it’s fauna & flora.
I love good food, good grog, a good laugh, koala spotting, the good life with my beloved Windaboo & crew & generally running amok, making the absolute best of every day...
Why they chose this property
For me, Windaboo is a childhood dream come true :)
What makes this property unique
A step back in time to a fairytale place with glorious gardens for young and old to explore. An abundance of native animals and farm animals.
Picnics or massages in the gardens.
Beautiful drive to Byron Bay & the boutique shops and top end restaurants with top end local produce that this area offers.
