Maleny-Montville Cottages #1 - 2 bed ocean views
Maleny, Queensland, Australia
Wake to sunrise over the Mooloolah Valley and watch eagles soar along the Blackall Range. This townhouse-style cottage offers sweeping valley and ocean views, with your own private garden and fire pit. Perfectly positioned, only 5 minutes from both Maleny and Montville, you're central to hinterland attractions yet on a quiet ridge that feels removed from it all. Australia Zoo is 18 minutes away, Caloundra beaches 35 minutes. Enjoy the perfect base to relax and explore the hinterland.
Good to know
Cottage #1 claims the prime position on the property, with its own private garden sanctuary commanding uninterrupted views across the valley to the coast. Downstairs: Full kitchen for self-catering, open-plan living and dining, European pellet-style heater for cozy winter nights, and a well-appointed bathroom. Upstairs: A master bedroom and mezzanine-style second bedroom, both fitted with queen beds and quality commercial hotel linen for a proper night's sleep. Reverse-cycle A/C for cool summers. Your Private Garden: Relax in the hammock with a book, set up a picnic on the lawn, or settle into the outdoor seating with a glass of local wine. The fire pit is perfect for cooler evenings. The garden is exclusively for Cottage #1 guests - your own space to unwind and take in the view. The cottage comes fully equipped with everything you need for a self-sufficient, comfortable stay. Wildlife & Views: From your garden, watch the spectacle of native birds riding thermals along the range - wedge-tailed eagles, peregrine falcons, and flocks of yellow-tailed black cockatoos are regular visitors. Goannas and wallabies often pass through the property. The eastward aspect means magnificent sunrises, and on clear nights, the Milky Way stretches across the sky. For more information, search "mmcottages" Note: The cottages are attached townhouse-style (see property map in photos), with Cottage #1 enjoying its own private garden area. The Location: You're 5-7 minutes from both Maleny and Montville's cafes, restaurants, and galleries. The Maleny Cheese Factory is less than 2 minutes away. Steve Irwin's Australia Zoo is only 18 minutes down the range. Despite being central to everything the region offers, you're on a quiet ridge with views that feel removed from it all. The beaches of Caloundra are 35 minutes away. Gardners Falls, Kondalilla Falls, Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve, and walking tracks throughout the hinterland are all within easy reach. Maleny is also one of the few reliable places in Australia to spot wild platypus - ask us for tips on where to look. Getting Around: A car is essential for exploring the hinterland's many treasures. Local buses run infrequently and won't give you the freedom to discover the region properly.
