Seaview Farm has been a part of life at Tamborine right from the start…

Mt Tamborine’s history started in 1870 when Edmund Ford Curtis and his brother Sydney first walked up the mountain. They settled there, selecting land in April 1877.

Seaview Farm was first established around 1900 by Bob Jenyns. Bob was the grandfather of the current owner, Teena Hansford.

The first slab hut, built on the farm by Bob Jenyns has been rebuilt and is now the Seaview Farm Reception Hut.

Bobby Jenyns sold the farm to the Hansford family in 1936 and since then the farm has been operated by the Hansfords, initially Ruby and then her son Ned and his wife Eleanor.

Ned and Eleanor’s son Russell Hansford is the current owner.

If you are interested in the history of the area or the development of the farm spend a few minutes looking at Seaview through the ages in our 100 year old replica Reception Hut.

The farm has been in the family for the last 100 years spanning across both Russell and Teena’s families. Initially run as a dairy and vegetable farm, Seaview now doubles as a cattle farm and a luxury retreat.

High ceilings and a spacious layout with a (split) king bed and a separate day-bed allow the cottages to be set up for twin share use or for three Adults travelling together. Maximum occupancy is three Adults. ** We do not have facilities for children.

The comfortable feel of the cottage is complimented by original artwork from local artisans. The spacious Premium Cottages are ideal for longer stays and two couples travelling together. The cottages share an entrance and have one adjacent car park each.

One of the cottage units has all facilities for disabled travelers, but there is more than the ‘standard requirements’ demanded. For example the lowered BBQ to do your sizzling comfortably seated in a chair.

Both cottages have a hatchway from the kitchen for easy access to the breakfast hamper and another one to keep the fire wood within comfortable reach.

On request there is an ‘intercom’ system between the two units to give support and comfort to the more frail travelers and to help make them feel safe and secure.
