Guest Reviews
- Rebecca (10/5): Brilliant location for relaxing and getting away from city life. - Location was great, beautiful scenery and Craig was more than happy to show us around the property and the animals. Nothing
- Mollo (10/5): Fantastic stay. Thank you for a great experience. - Our Rosella cottage was very comfortable, super clean and our hosts were helpful, friendly and very accommodating. Thanks for the local tip on where to go out for breakfast and allowing us to see you feed the cows. Nothing we didn’t like. We were very happy.
- Shirley (10/5): Wedding relaxer - We enjoyed the bush setting with the comfort of home touches. The staff being helpful with a personal tour to check out the little cows and resident koala. The fine touches like the log seats, and the many bird sounds. Great communication with us. Providing make up remover washers was the best. There was nothing to fault. Just watch for the little green frogs

- Marie-Jose (10/5): Een rustplek na een hele dag op pad in een geweldige omgeving. - De rustige omgeving en het goed verzorgde interieur. Fijne bedden, goede douche, goed uitgeruste keuken en vriendelijke gastheer Graig. In een mooie omgeving met verschillende nationale parken.
- Ji Yung (10/5): - It’s incredibly quiet, and at night the stars are absolutely stunning. The host told us about two koalas living in the tree near the gate, and I’ll never forget the moment when one of them was watching us. It was amazing! Boonah town itself is so small, charming, and beautiful. I truly recommend taking the time to go and explore it. Nothing
- Christina & Fam (10/5): -
- Tristan (10/5): A great tidy cottage, with super comfy beds! - Very tidy, neat and super comfy bed! Aircon only in living room and not in bedrooms, the 37 degree days made the cabin very hot unfortunately.

Our dogs were warmly welcomed. Everyone in the nearby town was super friendly. Toiletries provided were also nice. I’d love to go back in the winter to take advantage of the fireplace. The lounge was a bit uncomfortable.

- Kercheval (10/5): will definitely stay here again - loved everything, lovely little cottage had everything we needed
- Kelsey (10/5): Fantastic dog friendly weekend away - We had a lovely peaceful getaway and would happily stay here again with our 2 beagles. The driveway was well signposted and easy to find, and we had everything we needed once we were there. The cottages are clean, comfortable, quiet and very well looked after. There is plenty of space to walk around the property and get back to nature and we enjoyed only being a short drive away from all the things we wanted to do in the area.
- Tanya (9/5): Perfect Farm stay - Great location. Wonderful setting. Quiet and relaxing. The cottages were perfect for our weekend stay. Craig was welcoming and made sure we were comfortable. He allowed us to help feed the cows, even pointed out a koala nearby. Fabulous stay.. Nothing. We had everything we needed.

- Susan (8/5): Cosy cabin in beautiful area - Peaceful, private cabin surrounded by lush vegetation. Easy to find & facilities are great. View to mountains was obstructed by a large tree. The trees are lovely, but it would be nice to see the mountains beyond.

- IAN (8/5): Just right for what we needed. - Cozy log cabin style with a fireplace in the corner.
Just right for cold winter nights.
Was in a good location for the wedding we were attending locally (Maroon Hill Estate).
Nice place also to get away and explore some of the scenic rim.
- charles (9/5): A great mid-week get away in the bush. - The cottage was everything we expected. Directions made it easy to find. Owner checked in on us just after arrival. Cottage is private and well equiped and well maintained. It was quiet and relaxing.

- Ermes (10/5): Exceptional - Cosy cottage. Firewood ready accessible and so easy to use fireplace for the cool weather.
Cottage was setup with everything you could need and quality in all things. Even a fluffy knee rug for the lounge. Cottage had a little smokey smell, all my things were smokey when I got home but I suppose that is part of having a fireplace.
- Anna (10/5): Exceptional - Not a complaint. Being extreme fireplace novices, a couple of photos of the appropriate flue settings would have been handy. We got it right the 2nd night.
Loved our stay.
- Jackie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kate (10/5): Lovely cottage for relaxing getaway - Comfortable rustic cottage in lovely setting. Well equipped and cosy. Great hosts, good communication. Nothing

- Charmaine (10/5): Exceptional - It was beautiful , very friendly. Highly recommend
- Mick (9/5): I would definitely recommend this accommodation. Owner was very helpful and friendly. - The cottage had everything we needed and was very clean, comfortable and tidy. They're surrounded by beautiful , well maintained gardens which invited many different species of birds too. The ironing board is in need of replacing as it kept collapsing.
Also, only minor , but the tea cups are so small and difficult to hold...a few mugs would be handy.

- Kristen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Catherine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jean (9/5): Superb -
- Saunoa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lomax (10/5): A great little cottage in a central location to most attractions in the area. - Craig met us on arrival and was kind and accommodating, great little cottage to base ourselves at for a wedding close by. Everything was clean, tidy and well maintained. The driveway entry isn’t too kind to low clearance vehicles.
- Nikki (8/5): Wonderfully easy, back to nature and private. - lots of privacy and we were left alone, it's ideal for a remote nature getaway, surrounded by wildlife and the beauty of the bush, waking up to the sounds of birds. it was a little out of the way but the roads are good.
- Wayne (9/5): Friendly, clean, peaceful stay with a wonderful view. Well appointed 2 bedroom cottage. - This location is a short & safe drive to Kooroomba Wedding venue. Also handy to other points of interest ie lakes.
- Rachael (10/5): Brilliant. Well maintained and super friendly . Very highly recommend😊 - The location was the perfect gateway to explore Mount Barney and surrounds.
It was quiet, with the opportunity for interaction with the owners if wanted. Craig was super friendly, check in was a breeze and it was amazing to meet ‘ the cheese board(gorgeous little cows) ‘ and find out about the property. Craig keeps the property immaculate. The cottages are the perfect little getaway. We got to take home a bucket of mulberries!! The bedding on the bed in rosella was like a cloud ☁️ . So good after a big day hiking. Loved our stay at bilyana x thank you so much 😊
- Hendrik (8/5): Very good -
- Anne (10/5): Lovely, relaxing spot for a break from city life. - Lovely quiet location. Hosts Craig and Caroline were lovely and friendly. Very clean and cozy cabin.
- Leisha (9/5): Superb -
- Frances (9/5): Great place to stay, staff very helpful - Peaceful and cottages were well equipped The rocky driveway
- Gregory (8/5): Very good -
- David (8/5): Comfy cottage to stay in and use as a base to explore the Scenic Rim area. - Lovely comfortable cottage perched on hillside, a great place to relax, listen to the birds & get back to nature. Friendly hosts who welcomed you. Poor TV reception.
- Luci (7/5): Lovely peaceful escape. - Lovely quiet weekend away. Very comfy bed, lovely pot belly stove and most of all enjoyed meeting the 4 legged neighbours (gorgeous miniature cows) Trees a bit overgrown so we didn’t have much view of the mountains from our deck.
- Christine (8/5): Very good - Excellent location with plenty of trees and lots of birds.
- Joan (10/5): A cozy, serene retreat offering comfort and scenic views in the heart of nature. - We had a nice time, the cabin was clean and cozy. Loved the fireplace and having a verandah was a bonus with scenic views of the surrounding area including visits from local wildlife - birds, kangaroos & miniature cows. I highly recommend Bilyana Cottages for a short stay from Brisbane The hot water wasn't very hot and we needed to top up the sink with boiling water for washing up the dishes.
- Susan (10/5): Loved it all. - The location - peaceful, stunning views, the birds.
- Pam (9/5): Relaxing, no stress stay in beautiful surroundings. I - The cottage was pretty and had everything we needed. The firewood box was well stocked and the fireplace was easy to use. Lovely fresh linen. The cottage was well situated near to Boonah, easy to find and very private. The cottage was impeccably clean. The hot water was acceptable but not really hot enough for a very toasty shower. We could not work the TV. We are 100% sure that if we had sought help with this we would’ve received it but a cheat sheet for dummies would’ve been handy.
- Kathleen (8/5): Blissful Bilyana cottage and Beaudesert. - Beautiful location nature lovers paradise if peace and quiet is what you seek then look no further. Wallabies hopping about early morning and as evenings approached, skies so clear, loved the fabulous rain water unlike the rubbish we getting in suburbia. Extremely comfortable bed, loved reading up on the history. Visit owl cafe in canangara best coffee I've had in ages. Non applicable loved it all. Would highly recommend for a serious recharge of ones batteries.
- Gemma (9/5): GREAT - The peaceful environment There isn't an oven, and the BBQ was a distance from our cabin which made it impossible in the rain ... I would have loved to have seen an Airfryer or something along those lines, as then it would have been very hard to fault
- Jenny (10/5): The owners were amazing and helped when we needed help to get our fire started we will be back for sure and thank you ag - It was unbelievably amazing so beautiful and watching the stars on a clear night sky. We originally came for the Boonah show but ended up staying in the cabin over the whole weekend playing cards and board games as a family in front of a beautiful fire place. Before leaving we got the chance to go and see the baby calf’s and mother cowes so beautiful and to be away from the city and technology.
- Megan (10/5): A great way to relax and chill with the family - Perfect for a two night relax with my family

- Alice (9/5): Great getaway that is not too far from Brisbane. Will bring our puppy next time :-) - Beautiful views. Cottage was so homey and clean. Bed was very comfortable. Fireplace warmed the cottage just right for the cold weather. Would suggest an extra mirror in one of the bedrooms apart from the only available one found in the toilet.
