The welcoming nature of the staff and their friendliness (Doug and Shelley ) made you feel at home; the tour guide Schnitzel was always happy to see you and come over to see how you are going. The recommendations from the staff to explore areas should be taken up - as we enjoyed going to the locations which were not on our original list. The meals were delicious; the breakfast options were plenty, in particular the muffins and muesli cereals and standard hot breakfast was my favourite. The facilities were warm with the wood heaters and plenty of areas to rest and relax, and socialise with other guests if you wish. Overall a great Country Inn to stay while you explore the Granite Belt.

Breakfast is a bonus to be included with the stay. Great food. Great place for couple wanting to get away from it all. For those that has pet and want to see the boulder and can’t go to National Park, Girraween Country in have their own land to explore the boulder. Very close to all the nice wineries. The host Shelley and Doug are very friendly . Definitely will be returning.

The only downside it’s the meals there are expensive and no ala carte options. Quite expensive to pay $99 per person for 3 course meals . So for a couple it’s very expensive and not including drinks. If there is ala carte option , then it’s good. You can have 1 course but for 1 course main meal at $50 is very expensive for any main meals . But of course you don’t have to eat there. There are lots of places to eat.

Lovely quiet location that is accessible to Ballandean, Stanthorpe and surrounds. Breakfast outstanding and dinner was also very good and catered to dietary requirements (gluten intolerant in my case). Availability of EV chargers (2 x CCS plugs) was very handy and made the trip very easy from a charging perspective.

Really the only thing was the exhaust fan and heater light not working in the bathroom.

Lovely country inn style hotel in Girraween Country Park, exceptionally welcoming hosts. Lovely clean room with a four poster bed. The breakfast was great but the meal in the evening was fantastic, they even have a small but great wine selection. We didn't but we understand its a great place to start walking trips and it's a great setting but not near anyone (that's a bonus to us but might not be your cup of tea). If you're travelling up from Sydney to Brisbane or visiting the wine region, we recommend finding this place as a stopover or better still a base for a few days.

This is an ideal place to stay if you are exploring the Girraween National Park and the nearby town of Stanthorpe and the surrounding agricultural areas; it is set in natural bushland with plenty of granite in situ. Our hosts, Shelley and Doug (together with their wonderful, short-haired Border Collie, Schnitzel) looked after us superbly - the included breakfasts were delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed the evening meals.

There was nothing to dislike.

Shelley + Doug were terrific hosts - perfect balance of attentiveness and friendliness and privacy. The Country Inn was so inviting, relaxing and comfortable, cozy fireplaces, pool room, games magazines. We dined in the restaurant for the most delicious and generous servings of smoked brisket and vegies and our breakfasts (included) were delicious.

can't think of anything

Very ftiendly staff, good food, excellent location with very interesting scenery. The huge boulders in the garden were well worth seeing, no need to visit the Girraween Nationsl park. The food was very well prepared and the helpings, we're huge, the local wine available at the Inn was excellent. I can imagine this place in winter, when the coast is still warm, with a roaring log fire.

Garden and flower beds could do with a tidy up

The breakfast was generous and delicious, with plenty of options. True country style fare. The location was great. Easy access to the National Parks and Wineries. There is a walk you can do on the property and an excellent Gin Distillery right next door (currently only open on Saturdays).

Shelley & Doug were amazing hosts, seem to be managing everything on their own. Food was fantastic. 24x7 snacks on the house was very handy too. Can’t say enough about the wonderful Schnitzel, he was an amazing guide. He was there by our side when we went up to the lookout spot within the property when it was getting dark. Overall a wonderful experience.

Nothing to complain about

We really enjoyed our stay at Girraween Country Inn. Our rooms were warm and cosy with electric blankets on the beds. Tea and coffee etc available all day in our rooms and the dining room + cookies and slices etc. The breakfast that was included in the price was exceptionally good..... An abundance of cereals, fruit juice, fruit, toast of every kind, tea, coffee, hot and cold drinks etc. as much as you want..... in fact more of everything you could possibly eat and that was followed by a Big Hot cooked breakfast. The dining room was a lovely room with a warm fire going, making it very inviting, even on a very cold June morning! We also booked for dinner at night and found the food exceptional and the setting lovely.

The place was everything we expected and more. Beautiful surroundings and very close to many of the best wineries in the area. We bought excellent wine from 3 or 4 of them. One thing I would like to mention, and I'm only mentioning it because you asked. Whilst walking in the gardens and surrounds when we first arrived, I stepped in the droppings of the wonderful dog who lives there. Then I noticed there were quite few dog droppings in the area.! I loved the very friendly dog and enjoyed having him on our walks, but maybe it would be an idea to pick up the dog droppings daily ? Just a suggestion ?
