Lovely stay just outside Toowoomba
Great spot with fantastic setting and views. Well appointed house and tastefully designed. This all made for a lovely weekend away with everyone in our family (from our 9 year old through to the teenagers and adults) having a great experience. Hint: Don’t trust the google maps directions to Quince in ravensbourne and make sure to use the actual address
We had a wonderful stay at Quince Cottage. Beautiful cottage, amazing view. So peaceful and quiet and after a day out touring local towns was lovely to relax in heated plunge pool.
