Megan and the family couldn't have been more warmly welcoming. The boys very kindly helped unload the car! The guest house was very well equipped and comfortable, even a decorated christmas tree and seasonal chocolates ! We highly recommend staying and are coming back.

Megan was a very welcoming host & the Guesthouse was in excellent condition & very clean & tidy. It was a very peaceful & quiet location & only a few minutes drive to Samford village. I highly recommend Megan's Guesthouse to anyone wanting to have an enjoyable stay in the countryside.

We found this small unit was well suited to our needs for the weekend. The unit was clean, Megan there to greet us, with some unexpected goodies in the unit like breakfast foods and fruit. The unit was very clean, not sure what the issue was with one review about poor cleanliness. It is 6 km out of samford, this was fine for us. Megan had great books for all types of readers. The degree of privacy was fine for us as we were out and about each day and the kitchen looked adequately equipped for meals although we did not eat in except for breakfast. This is not a criticism however some people may expect something different from the description of the unit. The unit is not under the house, but attached between the house and garage, so privacy is not as great as some people would want, you also get traffic noise as it is only 25 m from a main thorough fare into a rural residential area. I did not see a pool and the only animals I saw on the 4 acres was the horse and 3 dogs

We loved everything about our stay. Megan was a wonderful host and the accomodation perfectly suited our needs.

A very tidy , immaculate clean and well organized place, good for couples and single travelers who are interested in the hinterland. Very welcoming and friendly hosts ho did everything and more to make us feel at home. We will recommend them any time!

An absolutely wondeful experience. Gorgeously furnished, and lovely atmosphere. Megan was super generous and a genuinely amazing human being. Cannot recommend you stay here!!

Megan & Derek were great & there home was very comfortable, exactly what I needed. Thanks Rohan

Megan has been wonderful, highly responsive, and carrying to us ! This apartment is really perfect, no noise, confortable. The breakfast was amazing ! A dedicated park place was set up as well for us! Just a pleasant and perfect host ! Thanks again, Megan and Derek

Our stay at Pete and Sheas' was great. Highly recommended.

A great place, only 5 mins by car from the Village, yet secluded, private and serene. We loved our time there!!

In a word, tremendous. Shea was accommodating from the outset. She met us as we arrived, have us the tour and then we were left to enjoy the comfortable space provided. Thank you

Such a beautiful property in Samford with lovely hosts. It was great to watch the horses from the deck while having a cup of tea. Accommodation was neat and had everything we needed.

Great place to stay, perfect location near Samford. Shea and peter made us feel very welcome

Shea's place is immaculate and stylish,very comfortable and private!! She's is lovely and a great host!!!

A great little cottage easy to get and secluded and quiet.

Pete and Shea were very helpful hosts and their kids are adorable. The unit was a full private apartment and had everything we needed. We loved the little nearby town of Samford and it was a great bouncing off location for day trips to Brisbane, Gold Coast, and the Sunshine Coast.

Glens and Peter were very welcoming. The house was accurately described on listing. The area was very peaceful, private and comfortable.

What a beautiful place to stay! My partner and i stayed here for a wedding held at Topiaries. We loved the pool table and the swimming pool, and Glenis and Peter were lovely hosts!

We thoroughly enjoyed our week stay at camp mountain with Glenis and Peter who could not be more helpful. The beautiful quiet bush setting was perfect for us yet still close to brisbane. The accomodation was beautiful with quality fittings, comfortable bedding and well thought out layout. The fire pit, pool table, tennis court, friendly little dog, pool and memorabilia all add to the lovely atmosphere. We would love to return again.

Beautiful area and good facilities.

Great stay. Clean private and peaceful. Modern facilities, great views made for a great little getaway. Excellent hosts and wouldn't hesitate in staying hear again.

Quiet and tranquil - Clean and comfortable - great hosts and adorable little dog - saw wallabies/all sorts of birds. Thx

wonderful place. Love the room, the facilities, swimming pool, and basically everything.

Beautiful place had a great stay, Peter and Glenis seem like really nice people

Lovely house, lovely people (and dog)

It was a pleasure to stay at Ferny Grove for a month with Paul's family. The place is great, quiet, it had 2 living rooms. The mattress in my room is fantastic, I had very good and long sleep. Its a 5 min walk to the station.

Very beautiful and very clean home, comfortable bed. Very quiet and nice neighbourhood. Lovely and welcoming hosts. Very friendly and cute dog! :)

One of the most beautiful accommodations you can find

We could not have asked for better hosts and the accomodation was amazing. I couldn't recommend it highly enough

A wonderful experience

Myself and my daughter stayed with Audrey and her menagerie, a dog, a cat, chooks, birds etc. and of course there is Shane, what a nice bloke. Their home is terrific and the rooms offered had great beds and plenty of room for the stray suitcase or 10. The location is Urban Australian Bushland, lots of trees, a dam (pond) at the bottom of the paddock and lots of wildlife. My visit was for such a short time but the welcome I got was wonderful. Audrey and Shane's home is recommended.

If you want to escape to the country for a picturesque quiet retreat – whilst only a few kms from the supermarket/shopping complex – this is the place for you. Country style home, with modern recently renovated facilities & décor inside. With nothing too difficult, super friendly accommodating hosts – you wont want to leave (or shop)!!!

Audrey's ranch is a beautiful friendly home. Incidentally, the splendour of the adjacent landscape is something like the vistas that have inspired revered Australian art. The hues at dusk & dawn are magic.

We decided to extend our original stay because of how lovely it was, and the hosts were very easy going about it. .

Thanks again for such an amazing stay, such a beautiful home! We felt incredibly welcome and found it hard to leave such an inviting home with such a warm, friendly hostess.

Wish we could have stayed longer! Audrey and Shane were great hosts and we were made to feel part of the family as soon as we arrived. The room was large and comfortable, and tucked upstairs so nice and quiet. Excellent value!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this apartment. It is located in a quiet and relaxed surrounds. We were impressed by the space, warmth and details of the inside of this place. Our host were very friendly, eager to help with any of our questions. We hope we can come back another time.

What a tranquil place! We stayed for one night and loved it. It was so relaxing- listening to nothing but birds and breezes through the window. My parents were with us and my father absolutely loved listening to the collection of records, flicking through books about Australian wildlife etc, and checking out the amazing view. What made it even better was the attention to detail- high quality bed sheets, comfortable beds and essentials you might have forgotten to pack available to you. If you are after a peaceful, comfortable and secluded stay somewhere, this is your place!!

We were in Samford for a weekend yoga workshop. John and Val were very easy to correspond with. We weren't sure of numbers right up until we arrived but it was no problem for them. John and Valerie were such a lovely, welcoming couple. The Old Surgery Cottage is a beautifully appointed spotlessly clean unit. The lounge and bedrooms are very comfortable and really quite large. John and Val have thought of everything, there are games, books and a well stocked kitchen. A selection of teas, coffee and breakfast ingredients were all there. You can see John and Val take pride in their grounds and gardens and the view is spectacular. I just wish we had more time to explore. We'll definitely go back - soon I hope. Robyn

An absolutely beautiful place to stay,we spent one night at the Cottage, the home was clean, tidy, very well equipped and had some lovely little unexpected touches and a very warm welcome when we arrived. The location is stunning, amazing views and wonderful wildlife. Would highly recommend this accommodation and hope to be back sometime. Thank you Val and John for sharing your home for others to enjoy. Ann, Lee, Tracey and Andrew.

Very impressive. The host and hostess are wonderful people.

Place was really charming and had a classic Australian feel to it. Beautiful location and great hosts!

A beautiful place to stay - better than that portrayed by the photographs. Valerie and John are warm and friendly hosts who made my daughter and I most welcome. I would definitely return if the opportunity presented itself.

Valerie and John's cottage is in a quiet, beautiful location and is very clean and comfortable. We were visiting with our adult children to attend a wedding in Samford Village which is only 7 minutes away. We appreciated the little extras that are supplied such as a nice selection of teas, milk and breakfast cereal. I would highly recommend Valerie and John's cottage to all travellers.

Paul is a great host and really friendly. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.

Paul is a friendly and interesting guy.

I read all of the previous reviews and believed that the accommodation was "cosy and clean" as described. It wasn't up to my standard (even my lowest), I found it unsanitary, dusty and meager - boasting absolutely no homely comforts. Though it is a reasonable price - it is not near the city or close to anything for travelers, so I don't see this as value, the train is a considerable walk. There were several items listed that were not provided such as a lock on the bedroom door and other essentials etc... There was a "window unit" air conditioner in the cupboard (not in use) but no heater. The host was readily available and helpful, communicating via Airbnb platform. I advised the host that I was staying for the purpose of work (which was nearby). When I arrived back after work I was unwell, coming down with a head cold and needed rest. (I advised the host - who replied they would try and keep the noise down) I was not afforded any rest due to a Saturday social movie night with several friends - which was extremely loud and continued until after 11:30pm, prohibiting me from relaxing or an early night. I was booked for 3 nights and cut my stay short - as I needed rest and recovery, this was stressful and difficult for me. I had to find another Airbnb that was more suitable (paying twice for accommodation). I will also mention that the Airbnb listing has the wrong address (backwards) - I arrived as described to Unit 6 and the occupants were aggressive and threatening, telling me that I had better let the host know that they were "jack" of being disturbed by his guests arriving at all hours to their place - it wasn't pleasant to be yelled at by theses bogans. I would not stay again - nor recommend this listing. I am sure their are many others that would be happy - it just didn't suit me.

Paul is a great host. Very kind, welcoming and easy to stay with.

10 minute walk to the grocery store and metro station. Very comfortable stay. Very kind hosts. Clean and accurate. All the ammenities. Lovely decor.

Friendly and nice house owner,happy to talk with

It suits me very well, hopefully it will suit you too.

Stay very nice at paul house. Very quiet with the possibility of parking in front of the house. Small garden and terrace for outside dining. I recommend

Love love loved our stay! What a perfect little getaway from Brisbane, we couldn't believe how close it was and yet you feel so far away as it is so peaceful surrounded by beautiful bushland. Jo and her husband were wonderful hosts, so helpful and welcoming. The annex is gorgeous - spotless and stocked with all you need to be self-sufficient. We loved staying in, cooking pizzas in the wood fired oven and roasting marshmallows by the camp fire. And their dog, Honey, is the most beautiful creature on the planet. Thanks again for a great stay!

Quiet location but a few motorcycles at the weekend. Nice lot of birds in area. TV not available without extra devices.

Travelling a short drive from Brisbane city, the location of Jo's place is the perfect distance for a quick weekend getaway. The annex is exactly as described, but words do not give it justice - the location, the peace and tranquility, the birds and the country vista are all simply superb. We loved the outside area, which was perfect for our little toddler to run around and explore. The pizza oven was also a treat, as was the fire pit, which we enjoyed on a clear and starry night. Thank you to Ray and Jo for their hospitality; we look forward to our next visit. Warm wishes, Emma, Ben & Quinny.

Staying at Jo's place was an amazing experience. Highly recommend it. Definetely will try to repeat in the near future :)

The annex was beautiful and clean with a lovely kitchen- we had everything we needed! Or favourite thing was the open fire outside on the property in the gorgeous surrounds. Can't wait to go back!

Had an Incredible night for the two of us

We had a fabulous stay at Jo's with our two kids. The annex was spotlessly clean and had high quality towels and bed linen. Within 5 minutes of arriving we had the treat of spotting an echidna. Honey, the dog, was very well mannered and the kids loved her. They also enjoyed feeding the chickens and collecting the eggs. The highlight was definitely toasting marshmallows around the fire. Bliss. I highly recommend Jo's place.

Jo's place was a lovely experience. We really enjoyed how comfortable the annex was and the decor and linens were high end and luxurious. We also had all the appliances we needed to make dinner. Our son loved Honey the dog and toasting marshmallows while watching the stars at the fire pit. Jo and family were very friendly and accomodating.

Hosts were very welcoming, friendly and flexible, made every effort to make stay as comfortable as possible.

Quiet location. Lovely deck to sit on in the morning for coffee. Very comfy double bed.

Super friendly people, nice clean home

We had a lovely stay in Julie's very comfortable home. Julie was fantastic in her communication. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We'll definitely stay here again if we come back to Brisbane.

The place is nice and good,Julie is kindly~

Great place, beautiful walks in the immediate vicinity, close to shops, quick communication with owner, front porch & back deck!

Nice, peaceful stay in a comfortable, well equipped house.

Great place, would definitely stay again.

My parents stayed here for 3 nights whilst visiting the Grandchildren. They had nothing but good words to say about the venue and the Hosts. Thanks Nette and Andrew for making them feel so welcome, much appreciated.

When we arrived Andrew and Nette were very friendly and welcoming. After staying in the city for a week Cockatoo Cottage was the perfect country escape! The cottage was extremely clean and tidy and there was plenty of room for the three of us to stay. We will definitely be staying at Cockatoo Cottage again!

Nette and her husband were so lovely and accommodating. There was breakfast condiments in the fridge that were homemade and Nette gave us an electric frypan to use. It was a romantic little getaway, very private. We were able to drink a glass of wine by the outdoor fire pit one night too!

I stayed here with my husband John & it was such an amazing place. The hosts provided us with yummy treats & very friendly. Beautiful birds come & eat from the bird feeder. If you are looking for a place to getaway & enjoy the scenery I highly recommend Cockatoo Cottage.

Beautiful area. Very comfortable and private cottage. Very welcoming hosts. Highly recommended.

Loved staying with Nette and Andrew. Cockatoo cottage is adorable and they are very hospitable hosts. Breakfast was great! The grounds around their house are beautiful too! We especially appreciated Nette's tips for attractions in the area and around our next destination, Cairns. Hopefully we can come back some day!

We loved our 3 day stay, hope to return again, and highly recommend Cockatoo Cottage. Nette & Andrew were friendly welcoming helpful but unobtrusive hosts. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated and a delight to stay in. Bed was comfortable and there is a big couch just right for relaxing. We saw cockatoos each morning while we ate breakfast outside. Nette provided a yummy breakfast basket with fruit, juice, fresh baked bread and organic muesli. There was homemade passion fruit yoghurt in the fridge which was really lovely. There was also condiments, tea and coffee etc. There is a great eclectic collection of books, but too little time to peruse them all. There are lovely walks nearby and a good exercise track in the village. Samford Village, less than 5 min drive away, has lots of good restaurants and coffee shops, supermarket, and all the basic shops. Wifi is not available in the cottage but Nette said it worked down by the pool. There is a microwave but no other cooking facilities but we enjoyed eating out at the different restaurants and cafes only a few minutes drive away.

The location is perfect! Cockatoo Cottage is located in a bird sanctuary and we saw several types of birds throughout the day - cockatoos,parakeets, and others . If you love nature you'll love staying at this place. Nette and Andrew are great hosts who made us feel like we are family. Nette provided yummy homemade jams, butters, honey for our breakfast. The area around the cottage is beautifully landscaped with shady trees, beautiful flowers in the garden and even an open fire pit to have barbeques at. We only wish we had stayed longer and hope to return here again.

Our stay was great a home away from home.

Thank to you Joan and Bill for making me feel so welcome and at home. The flatlet was very comfortable and in a relaxed neighbourhood. It was good to be able to come and go as l pleased. Very enjoyable stay and recommend this to anyone wanting to stay in the area.

We loved staying with Joan and Bill. We had a whole basement apartment to ourselves. Beautiful and peaceful neighborhood

My partner Gary and I had a great and relaxing stay with Joan and Bill. Was lovely and peaceful set in a georgous part of Brisbane. The "granny flat" was very spacious and lovely and clean and tidy. We will definitely be using these guys again in the near future.

Such a lovely apartment and a very kind, generous host. Thank you for making us so welcome, Joan. The apartment was spacious, quiet, comfortable and clean, in a lovely area of north Brisbane. The bedroom had a very comfortable bed and plenty of blankets and pillows. The bedroom also had a little sofa and a generous space for our bags, etc. The living area had a kitchen with everything we needed and a few cleaning and bathroom supplies to keep us going. The lounge area had a few seating options, all comfortable, and a very large TV screen. As well as an indoor dining area, we had an outdoor table and chairs with a lovely outlook. There was even a pool for a refreshing dip on a hot day. We'll definitely stay here again, if we're back in Brisbane.

Joan and Bill are lovely, as is their home. Spotless clean, great amenities. Couldn't have asked for more and definitely exceeded our expectations. Won't disappoint.

Lovely hosts with comfortable and clean accommodation in a beautiful part of Brisbane. Our second stay, very convenient for us to visit family in the same area

A really delightful and relaxing place to stay. Quiet, peaceful, beautifully presented, comfortable, spacious. We would certainly come again.

We very much enjoyed our brief stay at the mountain bird house. Roger was very kind to point out to us the brush-tailed phascogale and the possum on our first night. The location of the mountain bird house is very convenient for hiking, bird watching and enjoying nature. We loved relaxing by the oven fire after putting our kids to bed. Great place to get away from the city!

Megan was very helpful and went the extra mile. Wounderful and peaceful surroundings

The hosts warmly welcomed us to the Mountain House Birders cottage upon our arrival. The cottage was set up with beds for us both as per our discussions. The instructions provided regarding finding the property were very clear. The facilities were comfortable and perfect for our requirements for this trip. Would highly recommend the Cottage to anyone looking for a comfortable place to stay away from the bustle of the city with the added bonus of beautiful vistas and the added bonus of some exclusive fauna.

Very relaxing and private place to stay. Well worth it.

Wow! what a beautiful spot! Absolutely loved the bush land setting and seeing so many kinds of birds and one very curious Koala. The walking tracks were great, lovely views. The cottage was very comfortable, I loved the little touch of the Bougainvilleas on the bed with the towels and the chocolates! We dined with Roger and Megan on their balcony overlooking the Cedar Valley lights, the food was delicious and we really enjoyed their company, it turned out that we had a little in common with them, they are a really interesting couple, who love nature and have such a great wealth of knowledge, thank you guys for a great weekend, we would definitely like to come back again one day!

We were met by Megan's husband on arrival and shown the cottage. The photo's did not do it justice, it was very spacious and comfortable with everything supplied. We were there to do a reining clinic in Burpengary so had no time to really speak to Megan and her husband but did enjoy the peace and quiet the cottage offered. The cottage is on a ridge with walking tracks all around the property. A haven for twitcher's if the drawings in the guest book are to be believed. I would love to go back with a book.

Loved our time at the Mountain House Birder's Cottage! The place was exactly as described, spacious, clean and very comfy. Megan and Roger are great host. The place was so quiet, for nature lovers, it is definitely the perfect place. One night wasn't enough so we will definitely come back.

Thankyou, excellent hosts. Very clear communication, very welcoming and accommodating. Simple, clean and great views. All basic needs provided for, with some lovely extra touches.

Everything about this house and yard is perfect. We particularly liked the wonderful playground for our little grandchildren

The house was beautiful with loads of room for the whole family. The whole family enjoyed being able to get together in such a beautiful setting. Thank you to Warren and Carol for your wonder hospitality.

5 Star Paradise!!!! From the moment you arrive at Warren and Carols front gate you will be impressed. Specious family home set on huge lush green block. The self check in was smooth with clear instructions. The house itself has 4 lovely bedrooms and 2 stunning bathrooms. There are 3 living areas so our 2 families never felt like they were on top of each other. The home is full of quality furniture, appliances and linen. The kids were kept fully entertained with toys and dress up's provided and out the back there is a large play equipment with rock wall/swings and sandpit. Kids had a ball. It's so peaceful and quiet, we enjoyed having breakfast with the kookaburra's each morning -what a treat! Warren and Carol were excellent host's, responding to any questions we had very quickly. I would highly recommend "Fumius Bush Retreat" and would love to return some day.

We really enjoyed our stay at Warren and Carole's house. As a family get-together for 6 adults, we all had heaps of room both inside and outdoors. We loved the bonfire outside and the ambiance of the lounge room area. Everything we needed was available for cooking. The house felt very comfortable and welcoming as soon as we stepped inside. Kids would just adore the outside play area. I've already booked a return visit in the summer.

A really great place for a family get together. Even with six adults and three kids there was plenty if space, we all loved it.

We were 6 ladies looking for a girls winter getaway, Fuimus was perfect. We had many red wines around the fire pit, toasted marshmallows, made damper in a camp oven, plenty of outdoor seating, and indoor too. Would be perfect for a large family getaway also as there were many things for kids to do there, great place highly recommend for a country getaway!

Lovely modern spacious home close to Samford Village

Lovely home, suitable for both warm and cold weather. As it was a little colder when we visited, it was great to have the the fire pit.

The host canceled this reservation 2 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Great location easy and clean Thanks Paul

I stayed here with my mother for a concert at Eatons Hill Hotel and the property was extremely close to the venue. Paul was very friendly, hospitable and welcoming into his home. I highly recommend staying with Paul.

Paul made me feel very welcome, the only problem was whether I got a blue or brown towel. I decided on Brown :)

Great location close to Eatons Hill Hotel. Clean and comfortable, thanks Paul!

A very easy stay, thank you.

We had a wonderful stay at Pauls place. Easy to get to from the airport. Beautiful spot and had everything we needed! Paul nicely greeted us on the day of arrival and was keen on getting to know his guests!

Thank you Paul for hosting my parents. The bed was very comfortable and the location was just perfect for us. Paul was very welcoming.

Lovely location

Beds were comfortable and bathroom for guest use only was great. Quite location
