Additional information
The Old Convent is situated in Ravenshoe, the highest town in Queensland on the Evelyn Tablelands only 2 hours drive from Cairns. Ideally situated on the doorstep to the Misty Mountains, Savannah Way, Lake Koombooloomba,
Undara, the Atherton Tablelands and many waterfalls and other beautiful drives and walks.
The Convent dates as early as the 1890's as sections of the building were relocated from the historic mining townships of Irvinebank (previously the Irvinebank Church, Circa 1890) and Herberton (previously St Joseph's Boys
Home - part of Mount Saint Bernard College, Circa 1920).
In the mid 1980's the Sister's Of Mercy sold the Convent to a local parish family for use as a private residence. It was in 1997 that The Old Convent adopted a new purpose and became a
country guest house.
