Baby Bedhaha
Set amongst the tranquil rainforest, this light and bright two bedroom unit is the ultimate destination for your next hinterland retreat. Located in the heart of Maleny, just a short 5 minute walk to the centre of town where you'll find plenty of interesting shops and eateries. I have two other houses beside this one for rent as well. One has four bedrooms and the other has three. An important add-on note though is that the local branch of Brouhaha Brewery has sadly announced that it's closed.
