Anduramba Homestead

Top choice in Brisbane & Around


Perched on the crest of the Great Dividing Range, this Federation-era homestead excels in authentic country hospitality. Hosts Sandra and Andrew have created an impeccable retreat whose wisteria-laced verandah, sweeping views and snug interiors (fireplace in the living room) will have you seriously considering a tree change. Of the three guest rooms, the front Gum Room is the most appealing.

There's a clawfoot bathtub in one of the communal bathrooms, and guests have access to laundry facilities. Book directly on their website for a glass of local vino and a cheese platter on arrival. Guests must be aged eight or over.
