A beautiful converted chapel set in a lovely garden with roses and native shrubs and bird life. Very delicious breakfast using local produce from the Scenic Rim.

From the wood burning stove laid ready to light, to the fresh herbs in a vase ready for picking, everything about Boolamoola Homestead was welcoming! The cottage was immaculately presented, with fresh flowers in every room. The view of Mt Barney from the front veranda is spectacular. The dip in the rock pool after a long hot hike was refreshing! Mt Barney lodge is the perfect base for exploring.

It was for us very quiet and peaceful. Would like to know if you got selfcontained areas, units to book for weekends or a week? Otherwise everything was more than i expected would recommend it to anyone who will ask me to go there.

The best area to stay in Mount French is the Mount French National Park area itself, particularly around the Cunningham Highway.
This region is characterised by its striking granite cliffs, eucalypt forests, and panoramic views of the Fassifern Valley and the Great Dividing Range. It's a naturally beautiful and relatively undeveloped area, with the Cunningham Highway being the main thoroughfare providing access to the park's key features. You'll find a few established walking tracks and lookouts, such as the Governor's Chair, offering stunning vistas.
For couples seeking a tranquil escape, staying in accommodation close to the national park is ideal. The focus here is on relaxation and connecting with nature. Imagine waking up to the sounds of the bush, enjoying a quiet breakfast with a view, and spending your days exploring the walking trails or simply unwinding amidst the natural beauty. It's superb for those who appreciate privacy and the opportunity to disconnect from the hustle and bustle.
Families will also find the Mount French National Park area appealing, especially those with an interest in outdoor activities. The park offers accessible walking trails suitable for various ages, and the open spaces provide opportunities for children to explore.
When is the best time to go to Mount French?
The best time to visit Mount French is during the cooler, drier months from April to October.
During this period, the weather is typically pleasant with less humidity and lower chances of rain, making it ideal for outdoor activities like rock climbing, abseiling, and bushwalking. The clear skies offer excellent visibility for enjoying the scenic views from the various lookouts.
For those planning an active trip, these months provide comfortable conditions for extended periods outdoors. The trails are less muddy, and the rock faces are generally dry, which is important for climbing enthusiasts.
Families visiting Mount French will also appreciate the milder temperatures, as it makes exploring the National Park and picnicking more enjoyable without the intense heat of the summer months.
