Guest Reviews:

- "Perfect for the area and price." - "A few things that we weren't impressed with: no hair dryer, dirty crockery and cutlery, limited glassware and crockery, uncomfortable and torn couches, uncomfortable dining chairs, having a washing machine was great but no washing basket to take to the line and no clothes airer, handy having a separate toilet and two hand basins, however broken shower door - didn't close properly. General cleanliness of house was disappointing - dirty walls, dusty skirting, windowsills, storage rack, untidy (broken tv? In the bedroom), rubbish under furniture and in bedrooms, the yard was quite untidy, under the house was messy, having an iron was good but there was no ironing board available, toilet seat was wobbly. The beds were comfortable which was good, the location was good even though right next to the motorway, a bit noisy but not completely unbearable. Some basic consumables would be handy, especially for those only staying a night or two (tea, coffee, sugar, long life milk)."

Camp Hill Cottage - Private Family/Pet Friendly
Cottage
Camp Hill, Queensland, Australia

Our cottage is the perfect home away from home. It is separate from the main house, with direct walk-in entry from the side yard. The kitchen is fully equipped with a gas stove and oven and has a lovely coffee-pod machine. It's minutes from Brisbane city, the Gabba cricket ground, Southbank or an hour to Gold or Sunshine Coasts. There is plenty of free on street parking and buses and trains close by.

We love hosting families with kids and pets. Our guests have their own deck and a grassed, fenced yard to keep kids/pets safe and secure.

THE SPACE:

The fully self contained cottage is totally separate from the main house but close enough that you can ask your friendly hosts for anything you need or get directions to the many attractions in the city of Brisbane, only 5km away. The bus is 100m walk and the train is only a 10 minute walk away.

The Kitchen is equipped with all the utensils, crockery and cutlery one could need. There is a gas upright stove (hotplates and oven) and a large fridge/freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster and Coffee Machine .

There is a queen bed, a king single bed and two huge Swiss couches that guests could comfortably fall asleep on. It is a large open space, you could easily accommodate 2 adults and a couple of children. The private front deck adds so much space to the cottage when the bi-fold doors are opened. The doors can be closed, air turned on and curtains drawn to have a snooze or watch a movie.

Pets are also welcome and have their own fenced yard and and are allowed inside the cottage. We only ask that guests keep their pets off the furniture including the beds, and ensure that the pets are not left inside when they are not home. All droppings must be collected and removed from the yard before leaving.

Privacy is assured. The entry is separate and no interaction is necessary unless desired. The hosts live in the main house but on the occasions when they are away, there will be an alternative contact made known to guests.

Camp Hill is a very safe, leafy suburb of majestic Queenslanders and gorgeous parks. It is very family oriented and quiet. At the end of the street there are several popular restaurants, if you don't feel like cooking. There are many cafes within walking distance as well as a couple of local shops with post office, newsagent, supermarket, bakery and bottle shop.

There are bus stops and train station (Norman Park Station) within easy walking distance - look up Translink Journey Planner on the web to plan your journey on bus/train/city-cat (boat). Holiday information is provided in the cottage. A travel "Go Card" is available at most Newsagents. You can top this card up and use it for the bus, train, C City Cat and ferry. This will reduce your transport costs considerably.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
For families travelling with infants or children the hosts are very happy to provide extras to make your stay as comfortable and easy as possible. We can source a port-a-cot, mattress and extra linen for your little ones. If there is anything you need during your stay just let us know and we'll do our best to help you.

The cottage is also on the flight path into Brisbane Domestic and International airport which is just 20 minutes away. Most of our guests are not bothered by the planes and they don't fly over during the night. We have a couple of busy times but sometimes nothing at all if the flights change and we are on the outgoing path. It is important for us to let our guests know but it is also wonderful to be in such close proximity to the city and all that it has to offer - including the airport.

THE NEIGHBOURHOOD:
Our neighbourhood is quiet and peaceful with young people, families and long term residents happily sharing this wonderful green area. Enjoy lovely walks and a beautiful park or two close by. There are a couple of good restaurants at the end of the street as well as a local shopping centre with a bakery, newsagent, post office, bottle shop and supermarket. The city is a ten minute car/cab ride away.

If you love Asian food, Sings Asian Kitchen is one of our favourites and is on Cavendish Road at Coorparoo. Indian is a close second and Punjab Palace at Melbourne Street, West End is amazing. For those who like Italian, Elios Osteria at Winstanley Street, Camp Hill is fantastic and don't forget to say hello to Paul. Greenslopes is the home of Jam Pantry where Nim, the owner, changes her menu to suit local availability of produce. We love to go here for breakfast.

GETTING AROUND:
There is Free street parking at the front of the property. You can catch a bus at the top of the street which will take you to the city, Southbank, The "Gabba" cricket/AFL ground only 5 km away. There is a train station only 10 minutes walk away where you can travel to the city, Southbank, Gold Coast or airport. The City-Cats will take you up and down the Brisbane River to places like New Farm Park, Tenerife, Southbank, QUT, UQ, Riverside, Bretts Wharf, Portside and the overseas cruise terminal.

We provide a folder with lots of information about local attractions and how to get there. You can purchase a "Go Card" from any newsagent, which will let you access public transport (bus, train, city-cat) and save you money. You can call a taxi ("Yellow Cabs" or "Black and White Taxis". There are also many UBER cars available for about half the price of the taxis. You will need to download the APP on your phone or computer (free) to access this service but it is well worth it.

Turkey's Nest - White Gum Cottage
Cottage
Mt Glorious, Queensland, Australia

Nestled in 15 acres of tranquil rainforest just 35km north-west of Brisbane, Turkey's Nest is a perfect retreat from the bustle of city life, close to the city, yet a world away!

You will feel the cares of everyday life slip away as you settle into your private, cosy guest cottage nestled on the edge of the rainforest.

White Gum Cottage is totally private and self contained, with dining area, lounge, verandah and a fully equipped kitchen. A former forestry cottage, it has a delightful rustic charm, combined with all the modern conveniences you would expect to make your stay comfortable.

The cottage contains two bedrooms, one queen and one double, making it suitable for two couples, or for a family of four.

The view from the bedroom, dining room and kitchen could not be more relaxing, taking in the rainforest and the visiting native birds (some of which will eat from your hand). Cook up a feast in the well-equipped kitchen, which includes an espresso coffee machine, or on the outdoor barbeque A comfy lounge is the place to sit by the fire, listen to music, play a game of Scrabble or Trivial Pursuit, drink wine, read a good book and chat before retiring to a bed warmed by an electric blanket.

We provide all the comforts for a romantic stay, including electric blankets for those chilly winter nights, port and chocolates, music, and a selection of books and games, and an espresso coffee machine. Take a rainforest walk, stop at a local cafe, then back to your cottage for a massage, reading a book, sipping wine, a romantic candlelit meal, port and chocolates - how much more relaxing can it get?

Turkey's Nest is a wildlife refuge, registered under the Land for Wildlife scheme, and as such we cannot accept pets.

While Brisbane swelters in summer heat, Mount Glorious (620m above sea level and surrounded by D'Aguilar National Park) is pleasantly cool (be sure to bring a jumper, as temperatures average 6 degrees less than Brisbane at all times). On chilly winter nights, as mists waft through the forest, relax by a cosy fireplace, where you'll find a CD player and range of CDs, ipod docking station, a selection of books and games, complimentary port and home-made chocolates.

A short stroll to the tranquil village of Mt. Glorious offers bush walking in the rainforest of D'Aguilar National Park, three cafes, a quality restaurant with stunning views over the valley below, and a unique sculpture garden.

Turkey's Nest is a place to relax, unwind and enjoy the tranquility in the company of someone special.
To extend the experience, we may be able to arrange early check-in or late check-out (subject to other bookings). Please enquire when you book.

Massages with local practitioners are available by prior arrangement. Contact us for details. How much more relaxing can it get?

Turkey's Nest - Rose Gum Cottage
Cottage
Mount Glorious, Queensland, Australia

Nestled in 15 acres of tranquil rainforest just 45km north-west of Brisbane, Turkey's Nest Rainforest Cottages is a perfect retreat from the bustle of city life, close to the city, yet a world away!

You will feel the cares of everyday life slip away as you settle into your private, cosy cottage nestled on the edge of the rainforest.

Newly built in 2011, Rose Gum Cottage has been lovingly created with hand-made details and warm wood finishes, but with all the modern necessities you require. Totally private, it nestles into the bush at the edge of the rainforest.

The view from every room is perfectly tranquil and the verandah could not be more relaxing, a place to enjoy the rainforest and the visiting native birds (some of which will eat from your hand). Cook up a feast in the well-equipped kitchen, which includes an espresso coffee machine. A comfy lounge is the place to sit by the fire, listen to music, play a game of Scrabble or Trivial Pursuit, drink wine, read a good book and chat before retiring to a bed warmed by an electric blanket.

The cosy attic bedroom, spacious bathroom with claw foot bath looking out to the forest, and wood combustion fireplace make this an ideal couple's retreat.

We provide all the comforts for a romantic stay, including electric blankets for those chilly winter nights, port and chocolates, fresh flowers, music, and a selection of books and games, and an espresso coffee machine.

Note that the additional day bed in the bedroom is suitable for a small child (to approximately 9 years). We can also provide a folding mattress for an additional adult. Additional charges apply.

Turkey's Nest is a wildlife refuge, registered under the Land for Wildlife scheme, and as such we cannot accept pets.

While Brisbane swelters in summer heat, Mount Glorious (620m above sea level and surrounded by D'Aguilar National Park) is pleasantly cool (be sure to bring a jumper, as temperatures average 6 degrees less than Brisbane at all times). On chilly winter nights, as mists waft through the forest, relax by a cosy fireplace, where you'll find a CD player and range of CDs, ipod docking station, a selection of books and games, complimentary port and home-made chocolates.

A short stroll to the tranquil village of Mt. Glorious offers bush walking in the rainforest of D'Aguilar National Park, three cafes, a quality restaurant with stunning views over the valley below, and a unique sculpture garden.

Turkey's Nest is a place to relax, unwind and enjoy the tranquility in the company of someone special.
To extend the experience, we may be able to arrange early check-in or late check-out (subject to other bookings). Please enquire when you book.

Massages are available with local operators by prior arrangement. How much more relaxing can it get?

Planning a wedding at Mount Glorious? We have a second cottage on the property, and a guest suite at our house. See our Home Away listings #9013341 Turkey's Nest White Gum Cottage and #9186237 Turkey's Nest Macadamia Rainforest Suite.

Visitors arriving on Macleay Island find it to be a beautiful and peaceful place in a gorgeous bay setting, where you can enjoy nature and the abundant bird life.

Kookaburra Cottage is situated towards the north end of 6 km long Macleay Island and only 200 metres from Dalpura Beach (the best little beach on Macleay Island). A 10 min walk in the other direction you can do excellent dining and sunset drinks at the Bowls Club, or visit the Macleay Island Arts Centre (with great exhibitions), or the Boat Club Sunday lunch on the deck.

ABOUT THIS SPACE

Kookaburra Cottage is a 60’s style house that has been lovingly renovated with light filled rooms. There are plenty of tall trees to gaze at through the windows. The kitchen/dining/living space is open planned with great views out to the heritage blocks next door and out the back where the large trees provide a lot of bird life, including Kookaburras.

A variety of sleeping options are available with three bedrooms and 4 beds - queen bed, double bed and two single beds. All bedrooms have fans and opening casement windows (with mosquito screens) to catch the lovely sea breezes.

You can whip up a snack or cook a feast in the fully functioning kitchen. There is a large fridge, oven, microwave, cooktop and dishwasher, as well as a washer/dryer. There are some spreads and supplies in the pantry.

A large back patio gives you different spaces to hang out. There are bar stools and a table (with over hanging banana trees) where you can sip your coffee or have a glass of wine watching the beautiful sunset skies. Or there is a coffee table and cane chairs to relax in. Beside the house and behind the house are two heritage blocks with large trees and that add to the peace.

At the front of the house there is a cute covered deck area which is nice to sit down in during hot days.

The bathroom has a walk in shower and a good sized bath. We use gas bottles for the hot water and always have a spare set up ready to easily change over the knobs incase you run out. The toilet is seperate.

The garden is newly created and is being set up as an edible garden.

TRANSPORT OPTIONS TO MACLEAY ISLAND

You have a couple of options, depending on whether you wish to bring a car over to the island (come by car barge ferry ), or catch a passenger ferry and then get the taxi bus to Kookaburra Cottage.

If you come by passenger ferry - you can bring what you need in a trolley/bag/suitcase with wheels, etc. You might like to bring a small bag of groceries for breakfasts & lunches (or shop at our local Spar & 5 Star supermarkets).

Eating out for dinners is a good option. There are free courtesy buses to a couple of clubs (Club Macleay and the Golf Club). You can phone to have them pick you up and return you and enjoy a nice meal at their venue.

We are lucky to be located in a quiet neighbourhood, where the locals go to bed quite early and you can expect to hear Kookaburras in the wee early hours near sunrise. So we ask out guests to please be quiet outside after 8.30pm to be mindful of our neighbours.

No pets.

Guest Reviews:

- "This is a really small house, tiny kitchen, no pantry, or dishwasher, laundry is outside in carport. So I would not stay for longer than a couple nights. Would be suitable for a family with younger children. Also the fenced yard is teeny tiny, and 4ft fences. I could not leave my dog unattended in there as she would jump that in 2 seconds flat, no space for her to run around either (German shepherd). Would be find for little dogs. Bathroom door wouldn’t lock. And only one tea towel provided. Other than that the house was well equipped with good quality household items, beds wore so soft so if you like soft beds you’ll love them, and lovely comfortable pillows. The star of this place was its unfenced front yard, the only let down there was your every move is monitored on camera, which made it uncomfortable as I felt like I couldn’t sunbathe or really relax without feeling like big bro is watching and listening. However it’s where we spent most of our time when we were there. Lovely area to sit In the sun, on the hanging egg chair under the tree. Beautiful. So if you have a dog with great recall that’s were you’ll prefer for sure."

- "Great experience" - "Special Event, was great for us!"

Anembo Country Cottages - Spa Sauna Gym near sports venues, shops, restaurants
Cottage
Warner, Queensland, Australia

Anembo, Indigeneous word meaning 'Peace & Tranquility' or Quiet Place (origin unknown) is exactly what you can expect to experience by staying at Anembo Country Cottages.

The Cottages offer you, your family and/or friends complete privacy and your own piece of heaven, during your stay with us!

Upon arrival to the property, you will gain access to the keys and remote to the security front gate, take the gravel road to the left towards the Cottages, where you can choose to park under either the large double carport in between the two Cottages or in front of Cottage One (which offers wheelchair access).

As you approach the Cottages, it expands into all that is on offer. This includes an "industrial designed" Cottage (Cottage 2) to the right of the carport. To your left you are welcomed into a deceivingly large 3 bedroom Cottage (Cottage 1).

Cottage 1 opens onto an expansive verandah which runs the length of the Cottage, looking out onto a firepit and a 5 person spa, surrounded by beautiful Australian native plants and native birds.

The Cottages have two separate outdoor living spaces which include an outside lounge and outdoor dining setting, it’s own firepit including timber provided.

The Cottages have recently been fitted out to include a range of gym facilities and a vast range of sporting equipment (which although shared, will be only used by hosts when Guests are not present, so as to minimise any enjoyment by our Guests)! This ensures Guests privacy and sole enjoyment of the entire experience on offer, including the facilities and private surrounding gardens.

There is nothing that we haven’t thought of, to ensure that Anembo Cottages are a “home away from home”!

It goes without saying, just like “home”, but hopefully without all the distractions we have at home, preventing you from just relaxing at the Cottages and/or enjoying the many attractions, most of which are within half hour’s drive of the Cottages!

The Cottage is within 3.5 minutes of the Southpine Sporting complex which hosts many Regional, State and National sporting events. Many Guests who stay with us, whilst competing or spectating at the Eatons Hill Sports Complex state that the close proximity to the Complex is without a doubt, the key selling point of booking Anembo verses other locations available!!!

Within minutes of finishing a long hard day, you are sitting in the spa enjoying a cold beverage (while the rest of your team who book alternate accommodation, have up to an hour to reach their accommodation)!!

Other national sporting events are held at Samford i.e. archery, adjoining suburb of Brendale is home to a recently built and designed “world class BMX track”.

The Cottages are located with 5 minutes of the famous Eatons Hill Hotel and many varied dining venues and within short driving distance to Clear Mountain, Samford Valley and the township of Samford, Dayboro, Old Petrie Town, Kurwongbah Lakeside, North Pine Dam, Lake Samsonvale and within 40 minutes of the City of Brisbane.

The Cottages, although nestled within the suburb of Warner, are situated on 2 acres and have all the features and feel of the country! You rarely see or hear from us as hosts, neighbours and we take great joy in providing for your enjoyment some of the joys of living on the property such as free range home grown eggs, our own bee produced honey, chillies and fresh herbs.

For the cooking enthusiasts, the main Cottage is set up with everything you need, excepting a thermomix. Open for suggestions though to add one to the Cottages range of facilities!!

There are plenty of outdoor areas to enjoy, including its own Barbecue, sitting around the firepit during those colder months toasting marshmallows and enjoying S’Mores, enjoying a good red, or sitting in the hot tub which overlooks the firepit taking in the stars of an evening (and our added touch of fairy lights)!

When staying at Anembo, you will awaken each morning to the sounds of birdlife, or our famous Kookaburras and even of a nighttime, our resident Koala is even seen or sometimes heard by his growling noise as he wrestles through the garden bed above the Cottages!

Escape city life, or visit the big smoke, all the while enjoying the country feel of the Cottages, incl the use of the Sauna, Spa, Firepit, Adult & Kids push bikes, Hammock, all of which are maintained regularly,

God willing, our daughter will be willing to share her cubby house and trampoline.

One of the many highlights of the Cottages include an outside fire pit & timber provided, sauna, spa, hammock to relax or to lie on the outside lounge soaking up the sun, have the choice of dining inside or outside, enjoy fire heaters in each bedroom, access to smart TVs in each bedroom (with Netflix, Disney Plus, Stan & Foxtel), well equipped office (if necessary) and a great library to cater for varied interests. We have gone all out to provide a number of gym equipment, sporting equipment and the essential range of board games, which really means you are on holidays!

You want for nothing in the well equipped and large kitchen/dining room, including well known recipe books.

To add to the 'health retreat' feel of the Cottage, we have included for your enjoyment various forms of relaxation equipment and wellness focused aspects.

The Cottage is on acreage which is extremely secure, with a security gate upon entry (entry only permitted by a known code or have access to a security buzzer). The Cottages also features a large double carport, which has been used by guests for large vehicles, including small trucks whilst staying with, undertaking contract work).

Guest access
Guests will have full access to the 3 bedrooms Cottage and very private use of outside entertaining area, complete with outside dining table, lounge, barbeque, own firepit, spa, sauna, own gym, along with your own private garden and parking facilities, including parking permitted in front of Cottage 1 for those with limited mobility and/or ease of unloading bags and/or groceries!

Other things to note
In addition to Cottage 1, we fitted out a 20 foot shipping container as an additional 1 bedroom (sleeping two people), combined with small lounge, TV and coffee making facilities, which can be hired out for an additional fee during your stay, allowing the number of Guests to be increased to 8 people or to be reconfigured as as separate office facility if this best suits the needs of the Guests during their stay with us.

It is ideal for those guests travel with Grandparents, or for those Guests who are resigned to the fact that they need to work normal business hours during their stay with us, albeit being permitted to work from “home” and want the opportunity to close the door behind them and be able to concentrate on your work. It is fully fitted out with appropriate lighting, electricity, air conditioner and a unit and coffee making facilities, including a small fridge.

It is extremely important that Guests confirm the exact number of Guests staying with us and the bed configurations, because facilities such as our bio recycle unit may not cope with the increased demand on facilities such as our bio- recycle unit, as the system is designed for use by only 10 people.

In having said that, we have had some Guests ask that additional family members stay with us in their own caravans and/or staying in tents. We will do our best to accommodate your needs and even have a Leader Caravan (sleeps 6 people) and a Supreme Caravan (sleeps 5)) available for hire, albeit separately on the Camplify platform.

These additional facilities offer the opportunity for large groups or teams to spend time together, rivalled by no other location within minutes of the Sports Complex!!!

Serenity by the Sea: Island Waterfront Oasis
Cottage
Karragarra Island, Queensland, Australia

PLEASE NOTE: Redland City Council's current City Plan prohibits short-term accommodation (less than 3 months) in character residential zones. Discounted rates are available for extended stays.

Serenity by the Sea (serenitybythesea.com.au) is a comfortably-furnished, Hamptons-style waterfront cottage ideally suited for longer stays. Set in a serene oasis overlooking neighbouring islands, it’s the perfect place to read or write a book with nothing but nature to distract you! Up for a bit more adventure? Explore this paradise on foot, paddle the supplied kayak around the islands or try your luck with crab pots. With fast Wifi and 4G phone reception, you'd be hard-pressed to find a nicer location for a Zoom call!

This sub-tropical gem is 52km from Brisbane Airport and 96km from Gold Coast Airport. Karragarra Island is just 15 minutes by passenger ferry or 35 minutes by car barge to/from bustling Redland Bay Marina.

Set on almost ¼ acre, the cosy “Settler’s Cottage” is among Karragarra Island's earliest homes. Extensions, a charming waterfront gazebo and a recent Hamptons-style renovation have combined its rustic charm with modern features and comforts.

Upstairs:
The master bedroom is an expansive retreat spanning the entire top floor, with breathtaking water and garden views. A reading nook overlooks the bay across to Lamb Island and North Stradbroke Island; the dormer window nestles two luxurious split-king Tempur fully adjustable beds (German-made Froli electric bases with independent suspension) for optimal sleeping comfort.

Downstairs:
On the main level, you’ll find a modern bathroom with a shower and whisper-quiet Bosch washing machine. Watch sunrises through the bright kitchen window as you brew your morning tea or coffee (Nespresso and plunge-coffee makers provided). The dining area’s solid timber table seats four and also takes in the water views.

Off the kitchen, a large screened-in porch provides the ideal setting for alfresco dining - enjoy sea breezes and water views while preparing meals with the outdoor kitchen’s gas cooktop.

The expansive lounge room is a modern addition to the original cottage and provides a generous living area that takes in spectacular water views at one end, with large glass doors opening onto a sheltered porch at the other. Among room amenities are comfortable sofas, Samsung 4k TV and a lounge that also converts into a bed suitable for two people. The entire lounge becomes a spacious private domain by simply closing the sliding barn doors.

The mains-powered gazebo epitomises “Serenity by the Sea”: it’s literally a few steps from the shoreline, and the gazebo’s power outlets, comfortable outdoor furniture and Weber BBQ have most of your creature comforts covered (including a handy outdoor shower).

Suited for stays of 3 months or longer, Serenity by the Sea is an idyllic place for "workcations", sabbaticals, or a charming "home-away-from-home" to escape winter or inclement weather. If you’re thinking about relocating to the Bay Islands, "try before you buy" by experiencing a few months living in the heart of the SMBI group first - have an ideal base while searching for or building your island paradise.

Frequent fast passenger ferries operate from 4:15am until late, and it's also free to take your bicycle or dog along!

Karragarra’s western beach and outdoor public picnic and BBQ areas are wonderful places for sunsets; meet friendly locals and enjoy conversation and a cuppa at Karragarra's Community Gardens.

It's easiest to shop for groceries online (Woolworths provides doorfront delivery on Karragarra).
