We used the pizza ovens for 2 of our nights which [...]

“Dear Judy and the team at Verandah House Country Estate, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude and sincere thanks for the wonderful experience I had at Verandah House Country Estate. The picturesque surroundings of Tamborine Mountain, coupled with the expert care and attention to detail from your staff made my visit so special. The spa treatments were indulgent and deeply rejuvenating, and what a magnificent view! We were truly spoilt.
