Clovely Estate Vineyard CottageLOCATION: Moffatdale / TYPE: Cottages, Holiday Houses by South Burnett

This traditional-style Queenslander cottage is in the beautiful South Burnett region. It is the perfect base to explore wineries and artisan food producers in the region or simply for a relaxing weekend getaway in picturesque countryside.

Set back from a quiet road, Vineyard Cottage with its generous verandah overlooks vineyards and farmland in all directions. Directly behind the cottage, across the lawn is Clovely Estate’s Cellar Door, where wine and gin tastings are offered. Lunch platters are also available. The Cellar Door is open Thursday to Sunday year-round (excluding Christmas Day).

The cottage sleeps up to nine in four bedrooms (two queen bedrooms, one double bedroom and one with a double bed and single). There are two and a half bathrooms. The main bedrooms have traditional French doors opening out onto the verandah and the old-style, tongue-and-groove timber walls throughout are a typical Queenslander feature. The large country kitchen is fully equipped with a full-sized fridge, oven, dishwasher, microwave and a good range of pots, pans, glasses and dishes. The living room has a high-definition, flat screen TV.

Clovely Estate’s Vineyard Cottage is 11 kilometres from the small town of Murgon, 19 kilometres from Goomeri and 54 kilometres from the larger regional town of Kingaroy. The South Burnett region is two hours from Hervey Bay, three from the Sunshine Coast and four from Brisbane.
