DAY THREE: Texas

Goondiwindi, Queensland

Tobacco was previously a major crop and industry in the Inglewood and Texas regions, but today you can explore its impact at the Inglewood Heritage Centre and Australia Tobacco Museum. They even have full-scale replica tobacco barn and an original share farmer's cottage. Jump in the car and head to the famous Texas Rabbit Works Museum – an ode to the rabbit industry of yesteryear that kept Texas and its surrounding areas afloat during the Great Depression and drought years. Open Tuesdays & Thursdays from 10-2pm and Saturdays 9-3pm. After stretching your legs and learning about the history of the area, we recommend stopping for lunch at the recently renovated Stockman Hotel. You can't miss its sunny yellow exterior on the main street. Head west towards Goondiwindi to your next accommodation: Melness Cottage. Melness Cottage is a studio-style cottage located on a working farm 33km out of Goondiwindi and is a lovely place to stay for the ultimate on-farm experience.
