Krishna Farm - A Voyage of Spiritual discovery

Krishna Farm is a thriving Hare Krishna community located in Eungella, NSW. It is actually the border town of NSW and it is closer to Gold coast an Half an hour drive from the Gold Coast Airport. Murwillumbah is the closest town to the Farm is about 15 minutes’ drive. 
I visited the farm recently with my family and stayed for few days during the Easter Holidays.

Below is the review, which I wrote for the Accommodation in the Trip Adviser. I am hoping to write a full length article about the Farm, its activities etc. Stay tuned...

I stayed at this wonderful accommodation in the month of April 2017 with my family and loved every moment of it. The cabin is cute, comfortable and had all the basic amenities. The views from the cottage are beautiful overlooking a small lake. The location of the cottage is perfect, close to the nearby town Murwillumbah. Two minutes’ walk to the cottage was the temple. Anyone can visit the place, attend the temple morning programs like prayers, greeting the deities, a class based on Vedic wisdom, have a sumptuous, tasty breakfast, explore the farm which is filled with beautiful forest, a river that one can walk to and take bath. The place is filled with a wonderful spiritual vibrations and the residents of the farm community are happy, chirpy and helpful. If you are lucky you can have some rare visitors to your cabin, like a Kookaburra. My kids are thrilled to have one visit us in the cabin. We are also lucky to see couple of beautiful peacocks in the temple surrounds. Days passed like minutes and overall it is a spiritually uplifting and serene atmosphere. The cabin reminded me of a book called Walden or Life in the woods written by noted transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau. My kids and even I wanted to stay there forever but, we had to come back to Melbourne to face the reality. I am looking forward to going there again to stay for one more holiday. By the way, there is no Wi-Fi in the room but, you can get it at the temple office by requesting them.
