Cassowary House accommodation is situated 250m up in the coller, forested coastal hills above Cairns, the tourist center of tropical north Queensland Australia.
Cassowary House accommodation is a small family run guest house which lies in the world heritage tropical rain forests of far north Queensland, within 30 minutes drive of Cairns. It was established in 1985 as a guest-house for those with an interest in natural history, particularly birds. It was one of the first birding businesses to set up in Far North Queensland.
Accommodation includes 4 rooms, two en suite double rooms and two singles that have individual showers but share a toilet. Catbird Cottage, a self-contained cabin in the grounds may also be available. We offer top quality fresh home cooked food in friendly, comfortable surroundings.
The grounds and surrounding area are unspoilt rainforest, a great place to sit and relax or take quiet walks. Feel free to take it easy on our verandah while watching the wealth of birds that come down in to the nearby trees and garden. This is also a good place for those with an interest in bird photography.
