Set on 22 idyllic acres in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, Diggers Rest is a veteran-run retreat just for Defence members, veterans and their families.
With a welcoming atmosphere, comfortable cabins and plenty of space to camp under the stars, it’s the perfect spot to relax, reset and reconnect.
Kick back and chat with others around the campfire, lend a hand in the garden or simply soak up the scenic surrounds while you’re there.
