Cloudlake Mountain Retreat, Ravensbourne
Imagine waking after a deep sleep to the chorus of native birds and a breakfast of home grown produce on the deck overlooking the lake.
Wander through a country garden full of roses, lavenders and herbs; explore the olive grove, vineyard and orchards or lose yourself in the cool lush rainforest.
Take a picnic for a leisurely day out exploring nearby national parks and lakes or indulge in specialist nurseries, wineries, antique shops and cafes.
At night, curl up in front of your own wood fire or sit around the communal campfire on the edge of the lake, toasting marshmallows, marvelling at the Milky Way.
Only one and a half hours drive from Brisbane and half an hour from Toowoomba, Cloudlake Mountain Retreat lies in a hidden valley on the Great Dividing Range near Ravensbourne National Park with your choice of two entirely different cottages on the property but in complete privacy from each other.
