A Hinterland Haven - with stunning views

A private, quiet and spacious apartment with views to Mt Ninderry, Mt Coolum and beyond to the ocean from most rooms including the bathroom! This lower floor of our home provides all the comforts of a 5 star apartment in a rural setting. Enjoy exploring the gardens or just looking across them to the Coast.

We are close to Mapleton and access to all that the Blackall Ranges has to offer but without the traffic and noise, being located at the end of a cul-de-sac.

Tea, coffee and breakfast makings are included. It is a short walk or a 5 minute drive to local cafes and restaurants, wedding venues or forest walks.

A separate entrance with a parking space enables total privacy with as much or little contact with hosts as desired. There is a PowerPoint near the car park if you need to charge your electric vehicle.

We are located close to sections of the Hinterland Great Walk and Peter is happy to offer experienced guidance on tracks.

We are also only 30 minutes from beautiful beaches and the Sunshine Coast airport.

This really is a monster apartment with spacious bedroom, kitchenette, comfortable living and dining areas, separate lounge/TV room and extensive outdoor patios on the east and north sides. In addition to cooking facilities a BBQ is available on the patio. Warm up by the outside chiminea if the night is cool.

Be warned - it is pretty quiet - the most noise you’ll hear is the birds!

Wonderful Stay

Stayed for a week and absolutely loved it. Great secluded location and the view was spectacular. The accommodation modern and clean with plenty of space. Location is very convenient, 30 minutes to Sunshine Coast and Maleny and Montville 10 minutes away. The owners Meryl and Peter were lovely. Hopefully we can return again soon.

Beautiful home in stunning location

My wife and I had the privilege of staying at this wonderful home set amongst beautiful surroundings with an amazing view overlooking the Sunshine Coast Hinterland and out to the ocean. The room is very spacious and comfortable. The hosts are very friendly and approachable who are always eager to help with anything you need. I thoroughly recommend the place if you’re considering a visit to beautiful Sunshine Coast, QLD.
