I stayed in the Rose Cottage on this property and it was great! The most noticeable aspect of it was how well-equipped the accommodation was. WiFi was hit and miss but that wasn't a big deal.

A old cottage adapted into a comfortable studio-style accommodation. Has an open fire which would be cosy in winter but creates a lingering smoky smell in the cottage (which moderates after you open up the doors and windows). Good value for money and very close to Girraween NP and a family friendly (newish) pub serving good food.

James Farmhouse is an old home with plenty of room and some creature comforts. The wood fireplace saw use as 4 couples enjoyed a cool long weekend. Ample room in the lounge and dining. Nice gardens. The house had 2 bathrooms and 2 toilets and a meals table in the kitchen meant chats whilst meals were cooked. Plenty of cooking gear and options. Rear drinks area. Walk to the tavern or shop. Both basic but you could get a meal (book on weekends).

Well laid out accomodation, lots of firewood/kindling to keep us warm (as well as air con), very short walk to local eateries and short drive to wineries. We chose not to cook but from what I saw the kitchen was well kitted out. Highly recommend.

A rustic cottage with everything you need.
We stayed in the Rose Cottage which looked a bit dated and rustic, and did not look very attractive on the outside. Once we went in, it was fine - clean, comfortable and cozy. Although we did not use the fire place, we could imagine it would be lovely in winter.

Great location and fantastic accommodation!
MJ Yurts was so clean we thought it was brand new. Beautiful and very well stocked. The yurt was a first class accommodation! Owners were so friendly and welcoming. Lots to do in the area with many wineries and Giraween Park close by. Would highly recommend staying there.

It was our second time to visit MJs Yurt this time. And nevertheless, the yurt was in perfect condition. Perfect location to visit the beautiful Girraween National Park and a lovely drive from Brisbane those who love to roadtrip!

Lovely, clean comfortable stay
We had a great stay at MJs Yurts. The owners obviously take a great deal of pride in their accommodation and everything was lovely and clean and well presented. We loved the fire, especially as it got pretty chilly in Ballendean in winter.
