Definition of: Arequipa (� r �k p�) A city in Southern Peru. The Incas believed Cuzco to be the centre of the world. It is regarded as the historic capital of Peru and is the launching pad to Machu Picchu. They referred to the area of Arequipa as the "land or place behind the volcanoes". From Peru to Peachester, Arequipa homestead sits behind the extinct volcanoes we know as the Glasshouse Mountains. Unique in many ways. Your hosts Andrea, Vince and young Lily will welcome you into their signature home situated just outside Peachester township. 'Master King' and accommodation for 4 'the Bunk House' share the South American inspired family courtyard with a crystal 18 metre pool at your disposal. Andrea and Vince both in their early 40's hark from Sydney and share an aviation background, keen eye for design, entertaining and simply the stuff people like. They've managed to create in seven years a unique environment in the heart of their 41 rolling acres. You'll appreciate the peace and quiet of country living ensconced in your luxuriously appointed private studio or simply sink into a Brazilian hammock on the verandah and listen to the birdsong. You can take a walk through the paddock to the creek, check out the funny antics of the roaming dairy cattle, pat any one of the pussy cats, Tiger, Candy or Java, collect fresh chicken eggs, or just take a swim and a nap! Nothing would be to much trouble for either Vince or Andrea, keen to ensure your stay is memorable.
