The Cottage@Noonameena - Escape, Rest and Recharge

This architecturally designed octagonal cottage sits on secluded bushland overlooking Tamborine National Park, where morning birdsong drifts through the windows. The cathedral ceilings and skylights create an unexpectedly spacious feel for a two-bedroom retreat, with mountain views stretching toward Moreton Bay. Despite the peaceful bush setting on over an acre of tree-rimmed land, you're only minutes on foot from cafes, restaurants and the Knoll National Park.

The cottage has everything sorted for a proper getaway: full kitchen and laundry facilities, an indoor fireplace for cooler evenings, and room-darkening shades when you need a proper sleep-in. It's positioned about seventy minutes from Brisbane and forty from Surfers Paradise, making it accessible enough for a weekend escape without feeling like suburbia. The place sleeps up to four across two bedrooms, though there's a nightly surcharge if you need that second bedroom opened up.
