Sometimes it's the little things that make a holiday experience something special.

As you step through the sliding glass doors into the seclusion of Sunbird Cabin, you’ll quickly realise just why.

Perched atop a sloping hill with views out to the magnificent Crouching Camel mountain, the attention to detail in this five-star bed and breakfast immediately places it in the upper echelon of boutique accommodation.

But first, you have to take the leisurely 40-minute drive to Speewah. And there is surely no better way to do it than in a cherry red 1969 Mustang convertible from Network Rentals.

This classic car is a dream, from the purr and grunt of the V8 engine to the bat out of hell power when you ease your foot down on the accelerator.

Brand new to the market, the Sunbird Cabin features a big indoor spa, modern kitchen and large and luxurious bathroom; no expense has been spared. The operators have fitted the cabin out with the very best of everything, from the towels and crockery to the appliances and décor.

All food and drinks are provided – with menu choices such as sumptuous salmon steaks, racks of lamb, juicy steaks and a big breakfast.

The other magical factor about a stay at Sunbird Cabin is the privacy and seclusion.

The sound of silence is only broken by the call of birds, making it appear that the real world is a million miles away.

And that after all is the purpose and desired result of any holiday getaway.

Network Rentals can be contacted on 4032 3448; they’re the only people in Cairns with a 1969 Mustang convertible.
