A beautiful well presented facility with a lot of local Australian made products for sale. The staff were very friendly but struggled to provide much help with what to see and do in the local area. This was surprising as we actually ended up figuring out a lot of good things to see and do ourselves from the information we obtained from the brochures they had on display. Moree is a great place to explore The amenities located within the building were very clean and well maintained.

Staff member was very helpful. As a former Moree resident, who was very saddened to see how the town had deteriorated, was glad to be able to buy a Lillymans soft drink.

Got all the infos I needed. Will be back soon. The campsite has three pools and one with 40degrees. So good, indeed.

Great place to stop for information, the staff were very lovely and helpful. Also loved the quilted coat

This facility was beautifully setup with local produces. I went to see the Moree Quit that was displayed. The staff is very helpful and we are able to get the guides we need.

We have had another wonderful visit to moree as usual find the locals lovely people who can't do enough to make your stay enjoyable gwydir caravan park is a wonderful experience ❤️

Very helpful and the lady I spoke to was very helpful and well spoken

Only one small pool open, paid $9, walked back out, they didn’t mention that the large pools were closed. Waste of . Thank you for the reply. You have a wonderful facility, haven’t been for a few years and the new improvements will be fantastic. Yes the staff should let people know about the closure of the bigger pools so people can choose to stay. Good luck with the project

First time visitor from the coast, here to enjoy the thermal pool. Staff were highly professional and very friendly. The whole place is well kept and super clean. Looking forward to visiting again in the future.

Friendly staff, great temperature pool. Only issue - website not up to date with status of renovations - only 1 pool open, and no Wellness Centre with a sauna and massage, (but still on website). I came from Sydney especially, so a bit disappointed. Still a great experience though. I walk with a stick, and great disabled shower and toilet, plus i managed the few stairs into the pool with grab rails no problem. Great day and pensioner concession rates.

Dropped in at Moree Pools, looking to get the natural experience, yes there was some works / Improvements going on, but Service Office Jennifer guided us through that, making our experience special with limited facilities. She interacted with our young children like little adults and made us feel at home. Such a genuine person and an asset to the Moree facility. We really enjoyed our visit and will come back next time we're down this way.

Never return my money back. Been going in-store to solve the problem for at least 4 times over the past year. It’s 100 bucks, it’s not much, but it is wrongly charged. That’s why I am leaving a review after a year. And if anyone in the management team is willing to resolve the matter. Please reach out to me. Thanks.

Out of the 5 pool they only have working. There is no pool to cool down in and the pool that is open is very small so it's way too crowded. They put the price up. Crazy 15 to enter . They should have reduced it. It's like buy a ice cream that has been 3/4 eaten and they charge you double. Moree council should be ashai for this mess. Years it's been renovating. I sure the locals must want to sack the whole lot

This is our second trip to Moree Artesian Aquatic Centre coming from Western Sydney & we absolutely love it! Such a great set up for everyone to enjoy the health benefits of the artesian water. The water is amazing & all the staff are great. Although a special mention must go to Danielle the Life Guard who is friendly, very approachable, kind & caring. A credit to all Management & staff for an outstanding public health facility, however Danielle & Mr Day are notably an asset to the place. We will definitely be returning every year!

Well kept, natural paradise. Had teenagers, toddlers and oldies over the weekend and the flat, spacious, on the river camp we chose was fantastic for everyone

Second time around Camping down near the creek Powered sites up near amenities Great camp kitchen So peaceful Fires allowed Pets allowed

We camped on a powered site. Relaxing week. Lovely morning tea in the cafe. Great spot.

Arrived to stay for 2 nights but ended up doubling that. We camping next to the creek which was nice. It holds fish but we didnt have any luck Friendly and helpful caretakers Kids loved the farm animals and lambs in the nursery. Lucky enough to have the place just about empty so a very quiet stay Great history and displays around the woolshed complex Very clean and tidy facilities

What a fantastic place to visit and experience, also the camping is top notch, ahhhhh the serenity

Just spent the weekend here, the caretakers are lovely people, down to earth. Great camping spot! Beautiful morning sunrises with just as good sunsets, lots to see even the teenage boys had a great weekend. Will be back

We love coming here!!!! Partner and i like to come to chill and just take in the peaceful views of the country life. Well maintained and really nice caretakers Ang and Rod. They make you feel welcome thats for sure. We love this place as it allows us to have our dogs. Lots of land for them to play in off leash area, some awesome swimming areas from them too. You will not be disappointed in the showers if you stay. Great pressure and HOT. Until next time. :-D Shell

The Kedron Wavell RSL Sub Branch Volunteers, along with the Liaison students from the local secondary schools around the Chermside area, had the pleasure of visiting the Australian Army Flying Museum located Bawden Boulevard (formerly Museum Dr, Oakey QLD 4401. The Australian Army Flying Museum is about 4 kilometres north of the township of Oakey & is only a short drive from the Oakey Army Aviation Centre. The museum provides an insight into Australian military aviation from historical to contemporary perspectives & is always looking to expand its history of aviation. Scott, who is a retired Army veteran of 32 years, is now one of the museum staff provided an excellent overview of the history of the aircraft on display. I was particularly impressed with the extensive knowledge & detail that Scott provided of the history of the various wars that Australian military personnel fought in from World War 1 right through to the present time. The military aircraft on display are in pristine condition with the museum staff & volunteers putting in a lot of time to ensure people that visit are provided with the best facilitated display & information. The Australian Army Flying Museum is open to the public from Tuesday through to Saturday from 10.00 am. to 3.00 pm & is free to visit. This museum is located on the ground floor level, with wheelchair access toilets onsite. There is adequate open air parking available with disabled parking close to the front entrance to the museum. Kedron Wavell RSL Sub Branch members & students were definitely impressed with the excellent display & the thinking going forward by the RSL that it could become an annual visit.

This was a great experience. Learnt so much and our 3 year old had a blast being able to actually go inside the Chinook helicopter. Staff there were also amazing and more than helpful.

Free Entry, Easy to park with plenty of static displays. Groups (with advance notice) can have a guided tour - great for kids as they allow kids to sit in the actual aircraft! Only downside is there’s no souvenirs. Lost opportunity that could help generate revenue for the museums upkeep.

Such an informative place! Free to enter. Very friendly & helpful staff. Kids colouring in area. Nice picnic area out the front.

Can not recommend highly enough. Outside of the AWM, one of the best museums for aviation I have been to (I have been to a few..). Staff were very informative and helpful, great with the kids, and plenty of interactive things for adults and kids. Massive bonus, it's free.. should at least be a gold coin donation. Thanks guys, a bloody good job

This was our 3 visit here over a number of years, we had Scotty as a tour guide, his commentary was funny at times and full of great information. Check for operational days and hours, there are no entry fees.

Interesting place to visit, cool experience to be able to climb in the back of a Chinook. Was lucky enough to see Blackhawk flying around as well

A lovely historic house, unfortunately in need of repair. Beautiful gardens. Janet was a great guide. Very nice food in the cafe

Great to be able to visit on a week day. Have wanted to for decades as a very early ancestor worked on the property. Just wonderful that the building has been saved. A great experience.

The Glengallen Homestaed, what a beautiful piece of architecture and history. You can see the beauty of what the Home used to be…. It would be great to see the original home restored to its former glory. But still a great place to visit. There is a cafe onsite to get a quick bite and drink. So glad We made the decision to visit 😀

We recently visited Glengallan Homestead and were truly impressed by the historical beauty of the property. The homestead itself is absolutely stunning—a fascinating glimpse into the past, lovingly preserved with so much character. Walking through the rooms and learning about the history of the building and the families who lived there was the highlight of our visit. It’s clear a lot of care has gone into maintaining and sharing this unique piece of local heritage. Unfortunately, the café was a letdown. The staff seemed quite disorganised and unsure about basic service and menu details, which made the experience less enjoyable. It felt like there was a lack of training or clear systems in place. That said, if you’re interested in Queensland’s history and architecture, Glengallan Homestead is still absolutely worth a visit. Just don’t set your expectations too high for the café, or consider bringing your own refreshments instead. Overall, a wonderful spot to step back in time and appreciate a remarkable part of our region’s story.

This is my first time posting anything but I visited the Glengallan Homestead and Cafe on Sunday and it was AMAZING! The food was delicious and came out fast but honestly we wouldn't of been fussed to wait because we could of sat there for hours just enjoying the view. The Homestead itself is really interesting. If you are interested is heritage buildings don't miss this one! It's setup like a museum, its very easy to find your way arround and you can do it at your own pace. The staff were also super friendly and took their time to answers all our questions, make us feel welcome despite being busy and even tell us a few stories about the place. Highly recommend visiting.

Really great historic place both the homestead and the items on the surrounding properties. We got a nice introduction by the manager and then spent a couple of hours exploring and reading. The homestead is an iconic sandstone mansion, originally built in 1867, was restored from ruin in 2001. It offers a self guided tour and the cafe is welcoming. What I really liked was the acknowledgment of Country and the Traditional Custodians and the story of the Brown Snake Dreaming.

We called in on a Sunday afternoon. Had coffee and scones before looking through the homestead. Great Merlo coffee and the scones were very good. We then wondered over to the homestead. The house is huge, which I found fascinating. There's been a huge amount of restoration completed. However, there are sections that remain to be done. But it's gives you an opportunity to see how the house was built. At 15 dollars each entry, I think it's pretty good value.

Unforgettable Experience at Darling Downs Zoo! We had the best day at Darling Downs Zoo! The whole experience was well beyond our expectations — clean grounds, friendly staff, and a wide range of animals you don’t often get to see in a regional zoo. The absolute highlights for us were the lemurs and the giraffes. The lemurs were so lively and fun to watch — full of energy and personality! And the giraffes were simply majestic. Being able to see them up close was a real treat, especially for the kids. It’s clear the animals are well cared for and comfortable in their environments. The zoo layout is easy to follow, with lots of shady spots and areas to sit and enjoy the surroundings. It's perfect for families or anyone who loves animals. You can tell a lot of heart goes into running this place. We’ll definitely be coming back — it’s a hidden gem in the Darling Downs region!

We had a lovely time at the Darling Downs Zoo! It was a fun way to spend the morning/afternoon, even though many of the animals were having a nap when we visited. Still, it was a great experience overall. Pricing was reasonable. No issues with parking. A small suggestion, adding a little coffee spot near the giraffes would be amazing! It’d give visitors a chance to enjoy the epic views (and a caffeine fix) while supporting the zoo even more.

Darling Downs Zoo is such a great place to spend the day! The enclosures are well-kept, the animals look healthy and cared for, and there’s a wide variety to see—from lions and monkeys to reptiles and birds. The layout makes it easy to walk around, and there are lots of shady spots to stop and rest. The staff are friendly and happy to answer questions, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. The only reason I didn’t give five stars is that a few areas could use a little updating, as well as needing maybe extra kiosks or food and drink venders. But overall it’s a wonderful zoo and definitely worth a visit if you’re in the region. Perfect for families, couples, or anyone who loves animals!

Highly recommend visiting this beautiful zoo, the animals are well looked after and with areas maintained, the grounds are reasonably looked after but if that's at the expense of looking after the animals I welcome it. Absolutely worth the money knowing it goes right back into animal welfare. We spent 5 hours wandering around having a break for lunch and going back to see what we missed the first time. Presenters were great at explaining details about the animals too.

My boys and I had an amazing day. Although a big drive from the Gold Coast, in the end it was worth it. Such a peaceful zoo, fantastic views, surrounded by nature. Couldn’t believe the amount of animals there to see. Boys finally got to see lions, we also saw some other animals we had never seen before like the addax and the capybara. Spent the whole day there. Grabbed an ice cream to cool off. We will definitely recommend to other families, and will be back to see the lion cubs all grown up. Thank you Darling Down Zoo! 😊

Dropped in late in the day on a Thursday with only around 90min before close. This was definitely not enough time to see the whole park when one of your group is disabled, but we definitely had a great time regardless Staff were lovely, answering questions, volunteering information, and even showing us 2 day old puggles! The enclosures are nice and large and all of the animals looked very healthy and well cared for. We'll definitely be back for a longer visit.

It really is a hell of a drive both distance and mountain range wise. Not really their fault however, more could definitely be done by the staff to make it actually worth the drive. So many rare animals you don't see at other zoos around Qld especially the large cats however, all you get to see is them sleeping and laying around. There were no shows or interactions at all. Staff should let you interact with some of the smaller or harmless animals such as the capybaras or giraffes etc. My son was so excited to see the capybaras but they were so far away inside a large locked paddock and we could barely see anything when they were laying in the shade. Overall it was a fair price and worth checking out if your in the area but NOT really worth the drive if it's 1.5 hours away or more. Its also great that it's not over commercialised, its much more relaxed and quiet compared to say Australia Zoo at Beerwah but again it is in the middle of nowhere...

A lovely and enchanting place, perfect for a relaxing walk or taking beautiful photos. We even took a little back way to reach the gardens, which made it feel more adventurous. The only downside was that it was quite busy, so it was hard to get photos without people in the background. Still, it’s a wonderful spot to stop by and enjoy.

Lovely garden! Very tranquil when not busy, avoid during the Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers if you want peace! The cherry blossoms are blooming currently which was also a huge bonus (26/09). Parking was slightly problematic with the festival but usually isn’t too bad.

It was a fortunate experience to visit on a weekday. The cherry blossoms were in full bloom, presenting a stunning display of seasonal beauty. With fewer visitors, the surroundings remained peaceful and serene, allowing for an uninterrupted appreciation of the natural scenery. This timing provided an ideal opportunity to capture and enjoy the essence of the garden at its finest.

Visited this place late afternoon on the last weekend (which also happened to be a long weekend) of the Carnival of Flowers, so was very crowded with visitors, picnicers and kids but was still a beautiful place. Not as peaceful and tranquil as it can be at others times i have visited. Wistetia and lillies were in bloom but it looked like the cherry bloosoms may have just finished when we visited in early October. Don't miss a stroll through our own native flora at the Gumbi Gumbi Gardens just around the corner.

Peaceful and relaxing place to walk, sit, talk or meditate, even picnic. There are a few tables near the lake and a covered Pavilion overlooking the lake and gardens. Recommend a visit. Beautifully maintained gardens. Plenty of parking at either entrance. Can be busy in conjunction with festivals, but mostly a great to place to stroll, and enjoy the natural, green 'architecture'. No entry fees. Most walks are flat or modest gradient, some paths have steps, none steep. Toilets at the western boundary.

Wonderful garden, we also visited Queens Park gardens. Between Queens Park and the Japanese Garden it makes the 2 hour drive from Brisbane worth it. Will definitely visit again the future. We actually found this garden to be prettier than some of the gardens we visited IN Japan 😁 both Tokyo and Osaka.

Have been wanting to visit for years and finally got the chance! Absolutely fantastic - and way busier than I expected. So many places to sit and take in the gardens and lovely walking paths.

A true jewel in the heart of Toowoomba. Beautiful manicured and maintained garden with an abundance of topiary and flowers as well as stunning aged trees. Well worth a visit especially in spring. Highly recommended.

A must see visit in the city centre as part of the Carnival of Flowers and generally. Lovely spot to sit, relax, have a picnic and just enjoy the beautiful nature and fragrant flowers. Tip: I recommend parking close by at Secure Parking, 183 Herries St ($7 for the day) during the event.

This park really packs it in! There are incredible floral displays, tightly trimmed to and majestic trees! You will find a bit of whimsy mixed with practicality as you wander this city-square sized park!

Laurel Bank Park in Toowoomba is a sensory delight and a local treasure—especially for flower lovers and families. Here's what makes it shine: Floral Spectacle - Famous for its springtime displays during the Carnival of Flowers, with tulips, cherry blossoms, and themed garden beds that draw crowds and cameras. - The Scented Garden, designed with input from the Downs Association of the Blind, features raised beds of fragrant herbs and blooms for an immersive experience. Play and Relaxation - A recently upgraded playground includes inclusive equipment like adaptive swings, climbing walls, and nets. - Wide lawns, shaded picnic areas, croquet greens, and water features make it perfect for a leisurely afternoon. Community and Charm - Hosts events like the Carnival Parade and Devonshire teas at the Croquet Club. - Interactive art, animal-shaped topiaries, and sculptures add whimsy and character throughout the park. Accessibility and Amenities - Easy parking, clean toilets, and nearby cafés like Urban Designs make it visitor-friendly. - Dogs are welcome, and the park’s compact layout makes it easy to explore without feeling rushed. Historical Roots - Donated in 1932 by Samuel George Stephens, known as “the man of flowers,” who personally cultivated the land before gifting it to the city. If Queens Park is Toowoomba’s grand stage, Laurel Bank Park is its intimate garden theatre—bursting with color, fragrance, and community spirit.

We visited during the carnival of flowers, we had our dog with us and it was so good to be able to enjoy a walk around and have our dog welcomed as well. Thanks Toowoomba. Love your work, looked great and smelled wonderful.

A beautiful time of the year for the Laurel Bank Park when the Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers are on. The parks gardens are transformed into children's book and movie characters. There is so much to see and photograph.

Wow first time ever visiting toowoomba flower display and it is now definitely on our comeback to place list for the flower shows every year simply the best displays in qld and a must visit if you are in toowoomba at this time of year. Unfortunately my photos dont do it any justice.

Visited during the Flower Festival season. The botanical displays are magnificent and such a vast variety of trees, gardens, lawns and floral beds. Beautifully planned and maintained. I felt immersed in nature, it was so calming.

Well maintained Garden. The gardens are vibrant and beautifully designed, especially during the Carnival of Flowers — it feels like walking through a painting! There’s plenty of open space for picnics, walking tracks, a great playground for kids, and lots of shady spots to relax. The atmosphere is peaceful, clean, and family-friendly. Perfect place to unwind, take photos, or enjoy a day out in nature. Highly recommend visiting if you’re in Toowoomba! 🌸🌳✨

Visited the Toowoomba Flower Festival at Queen’s Park — it was crowded but absolutely beautiful! The gardens were perfectly maintained, full of colour, and the whole place had such a cheerful vibe. Loved that it’s dog-friendly too. Hats off to everyone who worked hard to make it look this amazing! 🌼

It's a wonderful time in Toowoomba. Gardens throughout the town are full of vibrant flowers and creativity. Lots to see and do in Queens Park, from shopping at the local farmers markets, going to the amusement park, winding through the maze or strolling through the park. I highly recommend Toowoomba's Carnival of Flowers 💐

This is a stunning, well maintained park. There are trees planted along all of the paths offering shaded areas, and the lawns are kept neat and tidy. The Flower Festival really makes great use of the garden beds in September and October, and the option of various playgrounds here is appealing. There are wide open spaces to kick around a ball in and various paths to get around the vast park area with. A beautiful spot.

Beautiful location. Visited in October so was a bit after the peak time of the Carnival of Flowers. Garden displays were still amazing in the range of plants and colours. Is a beautiful oasis to visit at any time of the year.

Fortunate to have a break from the hospital to enjoy the beautiful Flower festival!! Thank you to all who put in so much effort. It is uplifting, inspiring and grounding.

Interesting place indeed. So much Australian History. This place makes you proud to be an Aussie. I loved all the old carriages especially the caravan. I also thought the Cobb & Co. Journey's were fascinating, I could have watched and read it all. There were boxes and suitcases around the place showing you what families lived in the area. That was clever. The Saddlery and Wheelwright workshops were very interesting. I liked how you can go to classes to learn these trades. Toowoomba's Carnival of Flowers pot plant winners were on show throughout the museum, very colourful. As I was an out of towner, it costs me $12.50 but if you lived in the Toowoomba region it was free. It's a small price to pay for some wonderful Australian history. I highly recommend.

This is a great place to visit, so much to see & enjoy the history of the exhibits. Well looked after, staff helpful & friendly.

This is a nice place to visit. Kept the kids happy with the kids stuff in certain areas... perfect marketing and less stress for us adults. Entry fee was just a little expensive for what it is..

Was there for the intro Blacksmith course which was fun, practical and pretty Zen. Knowledgeable instructor, great bunch of participants, good gear and very hands on. Thoroughly recommend. Good interpretation in the museum and full workshops where they rehab old coaches.

A great museum with many interesting features including the collection of coaches and horse drawn vehicles The carriage works was also extremely impressive The windmill display outside is a very impressive feature

Few artefacts to enjoy. The carriages and buggies were everything. They're amazing. But not worth a Brisbane Toowoomba return trip sadly.

Great museum, it is very well laid out with good access to all exhibits. Wheel chair acces s makes it a good place to visit for those with mobility issues. Several hands on areas for children to learn about the historical significance of this area. A beautiful cafe and gift shop on site enhances this venue.

Wonderful Location, with Amazing Views. Lots of Seating Options. With Large Indoor and Outdoor Dining Areas. Good Menu. Which wasn’t as Expensive as I was expecting. Service is Super Friendly !! Had a Vanilla Malted Milkshake and a Scone, Jam & Cream. Probably the Best Milkshake I’ve ever had !

We recently had the pleasure of dining at Picnic Point Restaurant in Toowoomba with a large group of 20 people. From start to finish, our experience was nothing short of exceptional and the view was amazing. Pre-ordering our meals before arrival made the service smooth and efficient, allowing us to relax and enjoy our time together. The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and there was a fantastic variety that even the children loved. The wait staff were incredibly helpful and attentive, ensuring our needs were met with genuine care. A special shout-out to Mason, who played a key role in making our visit so enjoyable. His friendly and professional approach truly enhanced our dining experience. We are sincerely grateful for the outstanding service and high-quality food. We highly recommend Picnic Point Restaurant and can’t wait to return for another wonderful meal. Thank you to the entire team for making our gathering memorable!

Inside was cold on a hot day, so we sat outside in the shade with fabulous views. For me the acoustic inside isn't great either, quite loud, but as I said, very nice to sit outside. Staff is very friendly and food was delicious and well presented. I can definitely recommend this place.

Loved our time having breakfast here with a beautiful view 🤌🏼 the staff was so friendly and lovely especially the guy that was cleaning and setting up the tables early morning, loved his vibe 🙌🏾. Our breakfast was yummy definitely coming back next time we’re in Toowoomba 😊

Beautiful location Good food Reasonable prices Due for a renovation Lovely gardens 💙

My best friend and I had lunch here today. The place is quite spectacular, very modern, clean, stylish and spacious inside. Its has a very pleasing and friendly atmosphere. It's beautifully lit and has views that you simply couldn't afford if you had to pay for them. That staff were superb, with unmatchable enthusiasm and friendliness. The food was lovely, delicious, well made and beautifully presented. Downsides - none really, other than a lack of internet enabled food ordering from the table. We got stuck behind someone who simply had no idea what they were doing, and it took her 15 minutes to place her order. That's ridiculous, but not the restaurant's fault. Thanks, Mason, you're awesome! Very, very, highly recommended! 12/10!

Absolutely sensational in every way. Every aspect of my big breakfast was cooked and presented to perfection, I was greeted with a stunning energy from Mason and the coffee is to die for… Thanks team, we’ll be back!

We had a great time with Sue on our trial ride. The horses were beautiful! Sue was so accommodating to the beginner riders in our group and had exceptional communication over a number of months (due to weather causing us to postpone a few times). Thank you kindly Katie and Sue, we appreciate your patience and hospitality!

Fordsdale is a fantastic place to go trail riding. They have beautiful scenery and horses, and provide amazing customer service. Their horses are extremely well looked after. Sue was kind and helpful. You do not have to be an experienced rider, they go through everything you need to know. I highly recommend Fordsdale.

I have been to every trail riding place within day trip distance of Brisbane/Gold Coast and Fordsdale is by far the best!!! I have come back many times because Sue is always such an attentive and kind host, making sure I'm comfortable and having a good time. Very welcoming to children and the kids love Tip the pup, Zeus the pony and the baby goats. Even got to bottle feed baby goats and see a newborn foal! The views are amazing and it's just magical hanging around the horses running free in such a beautiful, wild place. The horses are happy, healthy and bright-eyed. There are forward going horses and beginner horses, and once Sue got to know my riding level she let me go super fast! :) I've never had such freedom and thrill at any other riding place in Australia. 100% would recommend!

My 3 year old nephew is obsessed with horses and I wanted to take him for a pony ride (on a lead rope) and Fordsdale was the closest place to us. Sue was lovely and patient, even when my nephew got quite scared. (my fault, Sue did mention to me that she had horses and not small ponies, but I though it would still be ok). With some support from his big brother, my little nephew got his courage up and in the end he absolutely loved it. He is now even more obsessed with horses and will no doubt be nagging us to come back. Thanks very much Sue and also to Simone, your beautiful anglo arab mare. She was wonderful.

Our family loved our weekend here. We felt really looked after by Sue, who went over and above in her hospitality, including making sure we were super comfortable in our tents and well fed. We were off grid but did not feel lacking in any way- we are so glad we chose here to unplug. The horses were incredibly calm, well looked after and peaceful, and we also loved the goats. What a lovely time for us and especially the kids ❤️

I stayed for a 2 day horse riding package at Sue's - and had the most amazing time. Sue was a wonderful host (alongside her support team including Pete and Tip the dog!) with great communication before I arrived. I stayed in winter. The weather was beautiful (if a little chilly at night), the tents are very cosy though with everything you need, a roaring camp fire, fabulous food cooked by Sue (no idea how she rustled up such amazing meals so effortlessly) - all set in the most glorious scenery. This is very much 'off the beaten track' and off-grid, but that only added to the experience. I can ride and was looking for a riding holiday that wasn't simply a 'caravan' trail with horses who had lost all spirit... Sue's horses are top-notch. They are all extremely well cared-for, the fittest horses I have ridden in a long time and with a variety of characters. As Sue knows each horse so intimately she chose the perfect horses to ride for my ability, and I was able to experience several rides across a variety of terrain in the surrounding area. Sue is great company and very knowledgable about the area, wildlife - and of course the horses. All-in-all I would have no hesitation in recommending this riding holiday to anyone wanting to properly experience rural Australia on horseback. I'd love to go back one day.

What an amazing experience. Did an overnight package with my 9 year old. Sue is a great and engaging host and we were very well looked after. Amazing horses and goats etc. Highly recommended if you’re after a proper ‘country’ experience.

Had the best experience! Cowboy up is a fantastic place to go for a trail ride. The horses are very well looked after and all have lovely personalities. The country side was absolutely stunning. It was the perfect trail ride experience for me and my friend. Highly recommend going! Gill and Peter are the nicest and most down to earth people you will come across. We will definitely be going back 😊

Excellent trail ride on a beautiful property. If you’re in the area we highly recommend going. We went on a clear Sunday morning, potential to see cows, koalas and bird life.

We had the best time with Cowboy up! This was the perfect place to get our horsey fix, surrounded by such beautiful country. The horses are so so loved and well looked after, which can be rare for trail ride companies. Gill and Peter are such genuine people with a passion for what they do, the way they welcomed us instantly made us feel at home. They shared many stories, advice and travel tips which went above and beyond any other trails we have done before! I would highly recommend Cowboy up and we will 100% be back!

I went riding here yesterday with my two best friends, and we had so much fun! Peter and Gill were so kind and made an effort to talk to us and help us get a real feel for some western riding, the property and trail were absolutely breathtaking and the horses were so beautiful and so well behaved! My friends and I will most definitely be back for another ride!

Had an amazing time with the beautiful Belle. The owners Gill and Peter are wonderful people and so easy to talk to while going for an adventure through their property. Can’t wait to come back.

We are a family of three, with a daughter 7 years of age and we had the most wonderful experience with beautiful horses and fantastic leaders. Peter and Jill are knowledgeable, experienced horse people who show dedication and love for their horses. We have done a few trail rides in the past, and this was the best so far. The horses are so gentle, happy and well cared for. We will definitely be back!

What a wonderful morning spent with Gill, Peter, and horses Belle and Tubby on their beautiful property. In our 60's/70's we were a little nervous about getting on a horse but were given expert and easy to understand instructions from Pete before heading off on our 2 hour trail ride. Relaxed, safe and very tailored to our individual needs. Jill and Pete were fabulous hosts, welcoming, informative and great fun. Highly recommend, get out and enjoy. Varri and George.

Great displays of different machinery and trucks. It's not very big, about a 15 minute walk around. No aircon in the room, just big industrial fans that blow hot air. It's not worth the $8 for admission if you don't live in the area, a Gold coin donation would be more suited.

Lunch was lovely at the Cafe. Nice to walk around the park.

Great place. Lots to see. Good cafe. Lots of seating inside and out. Very polite staff. Heaps of parking. Worth a visit 🙂

Took grandaughter to library for storytime. Bathrooms are very clean and accessible. I liked the cafe there better when it was run by the council.

Lovely service from the ladies...nice place to grab something to eat look at the library and take a look down memory lane with the old trucks and machinery...

Loved it,,had such a wonderful time.. Amazing place,,will b back ,,great Cafe,& the lake was beautiful..

Cool, friendly, and informative :) Lots of parking even a special area for caravans and motorhomes. They have an information centre as you first walk in with pamphlets of every major and minor area of Queensland. There are a few display cases of locally made or produced crafts and food products. I purchased some local honey which Im excited to try out! There’s a library connected to the main lobby plus a cafe and the museum to the other side. Definitely recommend stopping in if you’re traveling through the area or if you just want to know more about the Lockyer Valley :)

Trail was moderately well maintained but otherwise nice! There were a lot of old trees blocking the main routes and not enough signage. But if you’re keen for a 5-10km run that loops back, it’s a good route with minimal elevation. Would love a bit more signage and perhaps better mapping

Nice forest park with a lot of ferns and old trees. Can experience bio diversity than other forests near Toowoomba and Gatton reagoen. You can feel the darkness and listen to lots of birds inside the forest. Sand caves are very attractive. Insects and birds can be found. Best to visit in the morning.

Beautiful rainforest and walks just wish there were abit more direction and better mapping our 1.9k walk ended in a 6k walk which was fine for us but not if someone isn’t as fit as us or starts later in the day. Very confusing map highly suggest more signage or even just arrows would be wonderful so we get a sense that we’re going in the right direction.

Very nice rainforest walk. I did get some leaches on me last time and ticks are around so take some insect repellent with you. Otherwise picturesque

Beautiful walk and look out area. Picnic area is clean and well maintained. Would highly recommend. One star lost due to too much Lantana.

Serene, Scenic and wonderful. A short walking trail to get lost in the woods. This has been my quick get away in the nature. Make sure you pick up your own trash as there are no Bins to dispose . You are there to have some peace and you will end up having some 💕💕

The place has a few great walking tracks, for beginner to intermediate treckers. Nothing hard or too steep. Went with my partner and 2yr old boy. He loved it. It's a beautiful walk with a bit of rainforest type areas. Highly recommend it. Doing almost all tracks too roughly 2hrs

Absolute gem of the scenic rim. The views are beautiful, and so is the food. Service is friendly, the coffee comes out quickly, and the food was fresh and delicious Will be coming back here every time we visit the area . Bookings essential. Wheelchair entrance around the back, and park on the street where your can. They have mix and match cartons available, so you just choose which beers you want, help yourself and pay at the counter, and a carton gets a free beer glass too. The final touch in the eating area are grape vines growing up on the ceiling.

Good beers and food. Beautiful location and worth the drive from the gold coast. Stopped for lunch. Friendly staff, live music on this Saturday. Staff seated us at a table for our group to enjoy the food, beer tasting and music. Nice building, and seating both inside and outside. My favorite beer out of the 4 I tried: Fat Man Maroon Ale! 👌

The food here is amazing. The venue feels like home, and the hospitality is second to none. We had the pulled pork burger and knackwurst hotdog, and the kids had nuggets and chips, which they rated 1M out of 100, topped off with Dutch chocolate ice creams. The beer itself was delicious. We tried Diggas and Shazza beers. This brewery is a must, and the drive out is beautiful. We will definitely be back

Went there for lunch and a catch up: Was a great experience... Staff attended to us and were super friendly. Table service was awesome and the food was superb and the local Beers were delicious! Would thoroughly recommend adding this venue to any trip to the area!

Went here in the morning and had coffee and a bite to eat. Both were really great, and so was the beer after! In a great little spot - try for the back deck to sit as it's got a great atmosphere. The staff were all lovely. Would love to come back in the evening for a heap of beers!

Stopped here for morning tea on our way up the range. We went "old school" with scones and jamb, tea and coffee. Wide range of snacks and the lunch menu all looked good. Plenty of local products available as well as a selection of local beers. We headed off with a taster selection pack. Great service, very friendly atmosphere definitely recommend stopping here.

Great find- although we’d already had a late brunch at lake Moogerah we chanced upon this place heading back to Tarome. Feels like a place we would definitely return to. Very sweet little town that winds its way around the hills and farms. We stopped & partner enjoyed a beer tasting & Cheese Kransky- yummo! I had beautiful tea and an absolutely repeatable blueberry swirl tart in chocolate crust that was exquisite! We packed a few of the beers to take home & they are great! Staff are fabulous- friendly, attentive & efficient. There’s also a wall of shelves packed with interesting locally made goodies to take home and taste- relishes, jams, honey, crisp bread, verjuice, lavender-based potions & lotions. Easy to pickup a little gift for oneself or a relo ! The Lunch Menu looked pretty 👍 had we not just filled our selves elsewhere- will be back next time. A great detour & made the trip all the more worthwhile. Who doesn’t love finding ‘a find one didnt plan nor expect to find’ 😆

Great outdoor area, well setup to enjoy the view & while away time enjoying good company, food, drink & fresh air. The picnic hampers were plentiful & delicious. Dont think we could finish everything. Loved that I could bring along my pup too. Worth a visit whether you enjoy the outdoors picnic option or the restaurant.

What an absolute gem! The Lavender farm at Mount Alfred is simply perfect. The property is pristine, with jaw-dropping mountain scenery at every turn. The four of us had lunch at the restaurant, and it was genuinely one of the best meals we've ever had – truly 5-star quality and beyond. The day flowed perfectly with a fantastic commentary wine tasting and a serene walk through the beautiful lavender. An outstanding experience we can't wait to repeat. We will be back!

Not only is the Chapel a singuarly unique place to get married, but the scale and vast expanse of the lavender farm and vineyards provides an incredible backdrop to photos and for guests to explore. We had no fears if the rains descended as there is ample under covered space, and we were blessed with the most incredible sunset which just lit up everything and everyone so beautiful. All food and drinks provided were simply superb. I distinctly remember as the Bride, having a moment of blissful calm as I enjoyed my Lavender Duck main, watching everyone else as they enjoyed theirs. I am recommending to all my friends as I would love to attend a wedding here as a GUEST! The new on-site accommodation as well is very well appointed, with a lot of space and the honeymoon suite comes with a lovely spa bath. We also worked well with Fassifern Coaches to arrange transport for our guests staying in the surrounding areas and they knew exactly what we would be after, so never fear for the more remote location.

I’ve been visiting Kooroomba for many occasions over the years. The drive to the venue reminds you why it’s part of the Scenic Rim, with spectacular views from the restaurant. From events and birthday lunches to today’s visit, which was our wedding anniversary, every experience has been memorable. We shared a glass of bubbles overlooking the Great Dividing Range, easily the best seat in the restaurant, followed by the Beef Cheeks and Curried Duck. Dessert was the Crème Brûlée (which my wife still insists is the best she’s ever had) and the famous Lavender Ice Cream, their signature dish. I’ve taken visitors from all over the world for that ice cream, and it’s never disappointed. Pricing is very reasonable considering the fine dining experience and the quality of the meals. I’m a fan and already looking forward to my next visit.

Amazing restaurant under a gorgeous setting. The chef produces perfection and delivered and nurtured by our waiter (Guy) in our food and beverage choices. A truly professional restaurant and venue - I understand why it takes 3-4 weeks to make a reservation for lunch. My only wish would be to book in for dinner in the future.

Environment - It is scenic and the lavender is nice, but I feel many places could offer the same. If u find the angle, can get some nice photos, but if you are driving 2 hours and expecting a“spectacular and breathtaking view” then you might be disappointed. The restaurant - food - no complain on food, but also nothing so special - pretty standard kind of quality you would expect. The restaurant - service - quite so so… the young lady performed a very standard Ai-like customer service. No willingness to have any thoughts when requested for simple help.

The Mog Champ sends his regards. We were in a nearby camp-site and stopped here for lunch. It's a beautiful looking vineyard especially during sunny weather. We all ordered the butterflied chicken which was delicious. The chicken was slightly expensive especially for the portions provided, so would definitely recommend anyone to purchase it with shared sides as well. Had a nice walk after eating as well, thanks for the lunch Kooroomba! Mogliest Regards, Your Mog Champ

Excellent loved the trip Will go again when it’s ad vertices

Amazing highly recommend, staff are great and amazing atmosphere will definitely be going back

Great steam train ride there and back.

Worth visiting this beautiful area of South East QLD. We took the steam train highly recommend. Arrived to hot lunch at Granchester , A great place to take the children big and small. Thanks to the volunteer staff that do a fantastic job and are very knowledgeable .

I really loved the Grandchester Railway station . Wonderful to see enthusiastic volunteers using their skills and talents to cook food, sell tickets and drive the miniature trains. Lovely to see families enjoy the train rides.

A quaint little station. Staff are friendly and very informative. Well worth a visit. Makes a great little day trip. And while in grandchester, you might also like to visit the miniature live steam railway at grandchester or the local tavern, for a light refreshment or a meal.

While there doesn't appear much to see and do, taking the time to stand in this historic place, you can contemplate all the history. Its easy to imagine as a hub of commerce with bullock teams, or the initial opening as you look up at Lady Bowen Hill and imagine throngs of people dressed in their finery. Or those who jumped on this train and went to war.

We went for the junior farmer day. The kids could not stop talking about the camels and wanting to come back again. They had a fantastic day. The pricing was really reasonable. They got to feed the camels and ride camels, Queenie and Little nugget. We had a tour of the farm and saw all the baby camels. There were also other activities for the kids like face painting, plaster painting and jewelry making and they were all extremely reasonably priced which made it a really perfect day.

I really enjoy my visit at Summer Land Camel Farm 🐪✨ Camel riding was very fun and special, also I can feed the camels and take many nice photos. The farm has many activities to do and the car park is big, very easy and comfortable. I also try the camel milk café 🥛☕, the drinks are fresh, smooth and delicious. The café has cake, snack and also products from camel milk like skincare and vodka, very interesting. It is a good place for family, couple or friends to spend time together. Relaxing, fun and different experience. I recommend this place!

My wife, two of our daughters, granddaughter and l went out so that myself, one of our daughters and granddaughter could do the 40 minute camel ride. My wife said it was the most she had ever paid for a coffee. You have the option of cow or camel milk in your coffee. She also had a scone baked with camel milk, however, was not a fan. I thought $70 for a 40 minute camel ride was a little excessive. But it has now been ticked off the bucket list. The camel ride was very peaceful and the staff gave you some history of the camels in Australia, along with some facts about the humble camel. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable.

There were many camel or camel themed products like cupcakes, ice cream, lattes, nachos, sausages, and cheese. It was a great experience to see, touch, ride, and feed camels up close. It was enjoyable and a place where both kids and adults can have fun.

Enjoyed the camel milk and brunch, tasty and reasonably priced. Free entrance was a bonus! My little one had so much fun feeding the camels with the grass pack we purchased. We’ll definitely be back for a camel ride when he turns 4!

Such a beautiful farm. The camels look so well and looked after. Love all the camel products. Staff is so friendly and helpful, so happy to answer all my questions about camels. Very great place to visit and bring the kids/ grandkids. They will love feeding the camels or going for a ride. Well done

We did the farm tour and tasting. It was an amazing educational tour. We loved our tour guide Emily. Camel milk products were amazing👍

I did my AFF licence here with my brother, and it was honestly one of the best experiences of my life! 🪂 The instructors are absolute legends. Professional, patient, and somehow still manage to make you laugh while you’re about to jump out of a plane. The vibe on the drop zone is just amazing. Friendly faces, great energy, and always someone around with a good story. Whether you’re here to learn or just to have a blast, fun is 100% guaranteed! Thanks, Skydive Ramblers, for turning freefall into pure joy! 🙌

I got my husband a skydive for his 60th birthday at Skydive Ramblers. Check in was very easy and staff and club members were friendly and helpful. Can't recommend Ty enough for how at ease he made my husband feel with his jokes and sense of humor. He really went above and beyond making sure my husband had a great experience. Would easily recommend this company for your skydive adventure.

Absolutely incredible experience for my first tandem jump last weekend! The atmosphere is fantastic - every member of the crew we encountered were ultimate professionals while still keeping the vibe relaxed. Massive thanks to Shani, Robin, and Ty who, despite some challenging weather (cloud cover), made sure we had a great morning. I highly recommend Ramblers, and definitely opt for the photos of your jump - Shani did an amazing job.

The jump was for my sons 18th, they helped put him at ease and never once made him feel anxious. They were clear with instructions and repeated as many times as needed. Was fantastic to watch! There were people jumping constantly and was all done with absolute professionalism. Couldn't fault it.

Saturday drive on the 6th of July, for my birthday on the 8th, to Ramblers for my skydive on Sunday the 7th, Was - OMG!!! OMG!!! an incredible and amazing day!!! I was so exhausted with the mixture of not enough sleep from excitement, adrenaline and I even think tbh maybe a bit of fear thrown in there lol 🤣 Even though my birthday wasn’t till Tuesday this weekend felt like it WAS my birthday and the skydive was a way to celebrate it!!! 🥰 It was a the most wonderful experience and it was just unforgettable in every way possible to me!!! What’s even more amazing was I had all my beautiful family with me to share in it too. Staying the night before in a cabin was the best choice for me, as I got to meet so many lovely and wonderful people on the Saturday and enjoy the atmosphere of the skydivers as they did their Jumps and meet alot of the lovely staff too. I had an incredible instructor named Ty and after doing the Jump Ty gave me a gift pack and in it was a discounted voucher to do another jump. I wasn’t sure how I felt about doing another jump tbh, nor doing one straight after doing the very first one either lol 😂 I looked at hubby John and then to the kids Amy, David and Kirk and said maybe I should do it again today, seeing you’re all here?? They all just said they would go with whatever I wanted to do!! And even though my heart was still racing and I was still shaking I thought that because I already had the family there and Ty was working all day who made my first jump experience incredible , I decided to take the opportunity with what seemed to be everything in alignment to go ahead and do a second jump!! YUP I DID 2 JUMPS!!!! The second time round you see alot more and although of course it is the same, the second experience is a bit different with a different and refreshed awareness from the first time jump and Ty did a few loops the second time round to add to the already amazing experience. Thank you to my beautiful family for coming to be with me and thank you to wonderful Jenny at Ramblers who I spoke to from day 1 and Sara who showed us my video and was also wonderful and to Ty the most amazing person and instructor and to Adam my cameramen for my first jump. They were all amazing people The whole experience was INCREDIBLE!!!! Thank you everyone!!! Gail Winner 🩷💞💖💗💕💓

Ramblers were absolutely fantastic to deal with. My tandem buddy Ash was so welcoming, friendly and professional (even when I vomitted on the dropzone 🤣). I couldn't fault how friendly all of the staff were. The atmosphere was relaxed and the staff really got you pumped up for your jump. I love my photos and videos that were edited by Ash and will cherish them as a momento of my jump. Thank you Ramblers for making my 30year dream come true.

Really friendly atmosphere, the instructors really took care of our mum, she had a great birthday! Very professional, very safe, not to mention the best hash browns I've ever had. Can recommend!

Amazing experience to ride the rail trail can't wait to go back and do it again

From Toogoolawah south to somerset dam turn off, I road about 30 k round trip on ebike. Lots of ballast on trail from rail road. Always seems to go up hill. Going south, on old bridge where you go underneath across creek took me by surprise. Steep with almost a 180 degrees turn. Road this May. Very comfortable temperature then. saw about 10 people on bikes. One lady with kids and pram.

Great rail trail, with lots of options for doing short or long rides. Plenty of places for coffee or lunch in the towns along the way.

Great riding experience, don't need to be super fit, don't need a fancy bike

Fantastic little trail. Definitely rideable in CX or MTB.

Well managed..safe fast and customer friendly public transportation !!

Very organised event.

The Rail Workshop's history is presented in a way that is very well done. As you walk around, you can see, explore, and interact with the exhibits from start to finish. It seems that there are always special events happening at this museum, which means there's always something new to discover.

Recently visited the Queensland Rail Workshop Museum, and it was an incredible experience! The museum offers a fascinating glimpse into Queensland’s railway history, with a great collection of vintage trains and railway artifacts. It’s a must-visit for anyone interested in trains or looking for a fun and educational outing!

Great place for a visit for all ages. Lots of trains, history, a bit of science and a playground. If attending during an outdoor event (Thomas the train, food vans etc.) bring a hat as it can get hot. You can also pack your own picnic!

We also went on the sunshine express, loved it. I would take a picnic lunch for Grantchester station, they had a hotdog food truck. Donut can and coffee van. Good enough but would prefer different food.

Amazing things to see and learn about. Allow plenty of time to look around. Such a huge collection. Huge train set . Keep ds would love it and large key ds play areas.

Very good for the kid with young age. Only short drive from Brisbane. I went after the event and not many people here.

The railway museum is beautiful! We went with the whole family and all thoroughly enjoyed! The model train was extensive and so well put together. The trains and all in the information on them were great to see. The kids area is the best part as a family, the kids enjoyed for a long time! It’s all pram accessible, and was nice and cool inside.

Have been here many times. Great place to catch up with friends for some lunch . We had a chicken Caesar salad and a ham and salad sandwich. Both were delicious 🤤. Only one thing that was a bit disappointing was the bread on the sandwich was definitely not fresh. The filling was great. Look, I think I will over look it this time because it’s normally pretty good. The staff were really helpful. Service is always good.

The staff is super friendly and helpful, the location and view also great. The iced chocolate and coffee were also good. However, I wouldn’t recommend the carrot cake muffin, the dough is fine and it’s nice that they utilise various spices instead of just cinnamon, but the icing just doesn’t match and tastes a bit strange.

Demi, Miranda, the young bloke, (sorry didn't ask his name; next time) and team, were welcoming, down to earth, provided country hospitality and delicious well priced hot choccy with marshmallows and melting moment cookie, yum! They have an extensive food and drink menu. I give them 6 stars and a beautiful park to look out on from the side deck seating area or any part of the cafe deck.

Queens Park Cafe & Kiosk is a lovely spot for a casual outing. The location is perfect—right in the park, with plenty of greenery and space to relax. The café offers a good selection of food and drinks, from light snacks to hearty meals, all reasonably priced. Service is friendly and welcoming, and the outdoor seating makes it great for families and kids. It’s also very convenient to grab something quick from the kiosk while enjoying a walk in the park. Overall, a great place to enjoy good food in a beautiful, relaxing setting.

Nice looking place but dont expect cheap food, everything is like bloody expensive, $30 for a bloody steak burger. not somewhere I'll come again, too rich fir a pensioner. And this is $7.50 worth of chips, lucky if its 1 potato very disappointed.

Went here on the weekend and spent $100 for a meal for 4 people. The service was good and food came out extremely fast. I tried to get some toast with two sides but they don’t do side with toast. Weird. So I added it to another meal on the table and got it on a different plate. First time ever I couldn’t order toast with sides at a cafe. $4 for a side of beans that was less than a tablespoon of beans (see pic on my saucer with teaspoon). What is that about?

We came a long way to visit the area and have a take away lunch from this cafe. For $30 we were absolutely appalled with the size of the “Fisherman’s Basket”. One small piece of fish, two calamari, less than a palm size of chips and a small bland salad which included two old pieces of tomato. Highly disappointed and shocked at the cost for a measly sized meal. Do not recommend.

Awesome park, cameras for safety, family and pet friendly, water park for kids, great walking tracks, shopping centre across the road.

I live nearby and often come here — it’s a perfect spot for kids to cool off during the summer. The environment is clean and comfortable, and the facilities are well-maintained and not too old. It’s truly a great place to let the kids play and have fun!

Had PAMA springfest here and good entertainment and space.

I mainly visit here to walk my dog. The gardens are so inviting and it's wonderful to be able to walk along side the stream, and let my dog have a play in the running water (on leash). As part of the gardens, there are picnic and BBQ areas, and a wonderful water play space. There is a great little cafe, which is dog friendly. I also have gone for walks through the University which adjoins the gardens. It is a wonderful place to restore your body and soul in nature.

Nice splash pad and pool /lagoon. Fun public markets in the park once a month.

great outdoor area, but the young teen boys on the electric bikes and electric scooters have been harassing the womans workout program on a wendesday afternoon and the pokemon go players on the weekends and wednesday afternoons since april this year. please do something about them. they also do donuts on the dirt and it picks up dirt and could affect pokemon go players and other visitors with asthma. please do something. it got to the point where they threatened the womans workout coach by saying they would punch her and one of the adults from the pokemon go group had to step in.

If your looking for a playground that has water features for the kids to play and have fun as well as all the latest park equipment for kids then you need to go to ‘Robelle Domain’. It’s a beautiful park which is situated near the Orian Shopping Centre. Make a day of it as there is ample of greenery to have a picnic with beautiful scenery as well as barbecue facilities. Really great place for the kids to have fun, kids to get a little wet if they chose to and just a relaxing place for us parents to watch over the kids.

Such a peaceful backyard animal sanctuary! Owner is a lovely lady who.rescues deers and not for profit. Price for entry is cheap and you can tell they spend most time in looking after the animals rather than opening a cafe or food stall for money on the weekend. I got to.see the 8 week old baby deer getting bottle fed . so cute. I absolutely recommend this place. come and support them!

We took a day trip out to the Lyell Deer Sanctuary recently, and while the drive was quite long, the beautiful views on the way made the journey worth it. It’s a perfect option if you're looking for a quick nature fix outside of the city! The sanctuary itself is small but mighty. We were able to finish our full exploration, which included feeding the deer, in about 20 minutes. While it's a short stop, it offers wonderful sanctuary and rejuvenation—a lovely chance to slow down and enjoy the peaceful animals. We happened upon a very busy day, which surprised us at first; we thought we’d found a quiet local gem! It seems the crowds were mainly due to school holidays, so be prepared for a lively atmosphere if you visit during peak times. Overall, it's a fun, quick spot. I would highly recommend combining it with a hike or other errands in the area to make the drive worthwhile. It’s definitely a great little getaway, especially if you have kids who want to feed the deer. Don't expect a full-day event, but do expect some adorable deer and a relaxing break from city life!

Lovely sanctuary for deer and their friends. The drive out from Brisbane was picturesque and we didn’t feel rushed when we got to the sanctuary. The lady we met at the sanctuary was warm and welcoming and we met the sanctuary’s sheep as well. So many personalities amongst the deer so learned quickly which ones don’t want a bar of you and which ones still want to check if you have food, lol. If you have little ones, make sure they’re somewhat agile as the ground can be uneven and angled/slopes in some areas. There was also an area you could sit if wanting to eat your packed lunch on site.

We had an absolutely wonderful time coming here today. The people who run it are so lovely and it was nice to get away from our busy work weeks to come slow down and appreciate some super cute wildlife. For such a small price you get to enjoy the views, pet some very cuddly looking deer and feed them and a few of their other animals friends. So beautiful seeing the full antlers on one. We even sat down to feed and hold some little Guinea pigs. Thankyou for the great experience and for caring for the animals 🤍

This is special place. Doesn't look like zoo, its more about animals than entertainment. The owners are doing great job looking after deers. It's calming place making you to connect with nature

loved it, Feeding and interacting with the deer was such a unique experience. Great for kids, peaceful place hidden in nature

A great place for young and old. Really love their work. The Cow, goats and deers are keen to be feed.

Perched along the scenic Mount Mee Tourist Drive, **Pit Stop Café** is a quirky roadside retreat packed with vintage charm. Classic car memorabilia, retro petrol signs, and rustic outdoor seating create a nostalgic, laid-back vibe. The burgers, homemade pies, and thick milkshakes are local favorites, best enjoyed with panoramic views of the Glass House Mountains. A hotspot for motorcyclists, road-trippers, and adventurers, it’s the perfect place to refuel—both body and spirit. If you love good food with a side of nostalgia, this hidden gem is a must-visit!

What an awesome cafe! Stopped in for the first time today whilst on a ride through Mt Mee, and it didn't disappoint! Awesome atmosphere, amazing views, friendly staff, quick service and great food! Have ridden past a few times before and thought to myself, I'll have to check that out some time. Glad I finally did! Absolutely loved it, will be back for sure 👌

We stopped in on Sunday at 2.30. Unfortunately the kitchen had closed early so we could only get a cooldrink. Best to phone ahead and check if it's after lunchtime. 😒

An amazing place with lots of racing nostalgia and amazing views on top of the hill. 10/10 With both indoor and outdoor seating this place has you covered. Coffee milkshake with 4 scoops of ice cream (10/10) Smash Avo with extra bacon and a hash brown was to perfection (10/10). A must stop Pit.

An excellent place to grab a decent-sized burger for lunch, with an amazing view to boot. Burgers are both large and delicious, fries are crispy and smothered in the magical goodness of chicken salt. All reasonably priced, too. I would have included some photos of the burgers we ordered, but we forgot and demolished them too quickly! Lots of cool auto/motorcycle paraphernalia on display too, but the VIEW!!!

This is the place I take every overseas visitor for coffee and the view! I brought my mum (from England) up here yesterday and it was the first time I've really felt I needed to leave a review! We ordered toasties for a "light bite" and they were HUGE!!!! Highly recommend the place for the view, the coffee, the food, and the service ❤️ (My photo from yesterday doesn't do the view justice - on a clear day you can clearly see the tall buildings of Brisbane.)

Unbelievable. Drove over an hour to take my father out for Father’s Day lunch (as he’s a huge motorbike enthusiast)… what a mistake that was. We initially sat down toward the end of the verandah, all to be greeted with a filthy table and a foul smell of septic…… Then, after finally finding another table, we decided on what to order (shockingly boring menu- reminiscent of a backyard restaurant- literally burgers and a dodgy salad on the menu, and talk about overpriced). All to be told the kitchen was ‘closed’ and they had run out of food….. So, it was 1pm and they could not ‘cook’ us any food. Not to mention the server being so rude ‘yeah kitchens closed, we aren’t taking any orders- we’ve had a big morning’ if I wasn’t so devastated, I could’ve laughed it was so comical. What ‘restaurant’ doesn’t account for such a ‘busy’ day and runs out of food. We ended up going to the restaurant down the road, clear mountain winery! They were outstanding, amazing service, amazing food and were organised enough to have not run out of food! Oh and the servers weren’t little teenagers that acted like free labour. Never again will we waste our time with ‘pit stop’ cafe. My father rides with a huge group of mates each weekend and I mean about 20 mates, initially he thought it would be a great meeting spot. However, now he’s told them all ‘we certainly won’t be going there, they were rude to my daughter and they don’t know how to order food’ The only thing they had going for them was the view…….

My friend and I had a private tour with Bryce, he was very personable and knowledgeable. We were lucky enough to hold baby guinea pigs, baby chickens and walk a lama. We highly recommend visiting the farm as it's enjoyable for young and old.

We spent 2 wonderful days at the farm! A specially arranged horse riding session for my 8 year old. And a 3h private tour. The guide (Suz) and riding instructor (Ally) were so friendly and warm. Suz in particular was lovely, answering our incessant questions and her enthusiasm and love for the animals was contagious! The animals were adorable and we got to go up and personal with almost all of them. They were obviously well cared for and clean. Truly a wonderful experience! Well done Liz and your team for making Trevena glen such a haven for animals and kids (also big kids like me!) alike.

I searched high and low for a kid friendly hobby and found this little gem. After my initial email of enquiry it was suggested that I booked a personal tour, this did cost a little more but the lovely guide was able to customise our tour to Mr 12's interests (pigs) and she was very understanding and patient when I said that the bigger animals were a bit of a source of anxiety. My son is currently wheelchair bound and every single staff member went out of their way to accommodate him, from the young lady at the cafe to our loving and caring guides. Very understanding staff who love to work here. Although I think this might be suited more for younger children the three of us still really enjoyed our time out here today.

We took our two grandkids to the farm today and we were blessed with wonderful weather. The kids had a ball visiting all the animals and had the chance to pat and feed many animals. A highlight was the guinea pigs and our grandson loved holding and feeding them.

We did the private 1 hour animal tour for our daughter’s 3rd birthday and wow it was such a beautiful experience! We were guided by Bryce and he was so fantastic and knowledgeable, he was so patient and kind with our 3 year old- he made the tour so much fun and had a great sense of humour! We can’t wait to come back again! ☺️

Took my 2-year-old on the private tour and it was incredible. Our guide Bryce was knowledgeable, funny and so patient. We were able to get up close and personal with so many gorgeous animals - all of which are very loved and well cared for. Couldn’t recommend a visit here more.

We had a great experience here in this warm little farm, easily accessible around 40 mins drive from Brisbane. Though my kids are already teenagers and it was a rainy day, they were amazed getting in touch with all those lovely farm animals. Our guide (Casy?) was very patient and lively introducing the animals to us (as if they are her friends). The hot chocolate tastes good too! Private tour highly recommended.
