A REMOTE Far North Queensland vacation vacation spot that has sat vacant for 5 years is about to be the topic of a global advertising push.
Bloomfield Lodge, an up-market property on 2.8ha that’s solely accessible by way of air or boat, is owned by London-based journey entrepreneur Mike Gooley and has been mothballed since closing in 2015.
A spokeswoman for Path-finders, the bespoke journey firm owned by Mr Gooley, mentioned a global agent and advertising plan for the property 160km north of Cairns could be introduced in coming weeks.
