The space
✨ Shanlyn Farm Stay – Eco Retreat in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland
🏡 About the Space

Welcome to Shanlyn, a soulful off-grid sanctuary in Traveston, Sunshine Coast hinterland.

Here, the rhythms of the land invite you to slow down — to STAY … Breathe, Remember, Reconnect.

Our eco-domes, vintage caravan, Satya deck, firepit, and labyrinth offer space for rest, reflection, and connection.

✨ Off-Grid Living
Powered by solar and supplied with rainwater, Shanlyn offers the chance to step away from modern distractions without sacrificing comfort.

♻️ Repurposed & Upcycled Charm
Much of the furniture and décor has been thoughtfully repurposed or upcycled — from rustic timber tables to vintage chairs — creating a space that feels warm, soulful, and sustainable.

🌿 Farm Life
Our friendly horses, donkeys, cows, chickens, and peacocks roam freely around the property. Guests are welcome to spend time with them — simply treat them with kindness and respect. Their presence is often one of the most memorable parts of a stay at Shanlyn.

My work: Farmstay/Therapist
I spend too much time: with my animals
Hi, I’m Lynne Shanlyn is the dream my late husband Shane and I created, now a sanctuary of animals, nature, and gentle spaces to rest. Horses graze in the paddocks, donkeys wander with curiosity, chickens scratch at the earth, and peacocks add their splash of colour. I love welcoming guests to slow down, breathe, and feel at home in the peace of the Sunshine Coast hinterland.
