I recently had the opportunity to stay with Penny & Jorg in the "Australian Room" Gum Tree on Gillies was very easy to find and I was met with a very warm welcome. My room was everything that had been advertised and some. Jorg makes a great breakfast also. This B&B is very centrally located in the Tablelands and I... More

Just out of town, but within walking distance, Gumtrees is convenient to Yungaburra but quiet, private and very charming. Penny and Jorg are great hosts, the breakfasts are fabulous, and the rooms are large, individual and welcoming. There are some really nice touches in the rooms like fresh roses, port and chocolates, local coffee etc. The fireplace is fabulous in... More

We loved this place ! It's a 5 minute drive into the sweet town of Yungaburra. We stayed at a lot of B&B during our 5 weeks in Australia and for sure this was one of our favorite places. Penny makes a great breakfast, she delivers it to your room! I think the Egyptian room must be the best room.... More

Thank you Penny and Jorg. We wanted to get away from it all and we did! Really loved being in the bush yet only 10 minute walking distance to the Yungaburra village. Had great fun exploring. Jill and John

The room was decorated with authentic east African handicrafts (we were able to swap east Africa stories with Penny having also lived there!) and was spacious and immaculately clean. The breakfasts - we... More

Had a lovely night away with my husband sans kids! We stayed in the Moroccan Room. Very authentic feeling. Loved that we could watch "Casablanca" from our bed.
