Casley Mount Hutton Winery

Reviewed By Ranga_23490

I’ve only very recently started drinking wine and Sonya was more than accommodating, taking me and my partner through the whole process and explaining the wines, taste and the winemaking process. Very informative and friendly. Definitely worth visiting.

Donnelly's Castle

Reviewed By Ginges_revenge - Brisbane, Australia

This was one of my favourite spots for the weekend. Even though I am in my mid 40's, it made me feel like a kid again, exploring through the amazing rock formation that is Donnelly's castle. Its a bit of trek out of the center of Stanthorpe (20 mins approx. but is well worth the drive. There is a lookout on top which is an easy walk up a gentle slope with a few stairs onto a large granite outcrop which is fenced for safety. Even though all the other boulders you can fall off of. Bit of a laugh that. Anyway, its history is of supporting a place of bushrangers to hide out in, most notably Captain Thunderbolt (AKA Frederick Wordsworth Ward) in the mid 1800's. There is a great picnic area there, small car park, some wood fire BBQ's, a council toilet as well. It would make a great area for a visit, lunch and some exploring.

Boireann Winery

Reviewed By rogerh986

On our last visit to Oz the only wine we took home was from Boireann. Peter has since retired and the vineyard is being run by Brad. We tasted some 2016 and, from the barrel, some 2017. The place is in good hands, Peter is still taking an interest and the wine seemed rounder. We will go home with a couple of bottles each of their Bordeaux blend, tannat, and a superb blend of nebbiolo and barbero they call simply rosso.

The Granite Belt Maze

Reviewed By thriftyfamilytravels - Brisbane, Australia

The kids will love this place - mazes, mini golf and some fun things to play with! There are three different mazes here all with varying degrees of difficulty. Plus for an extra challenge you can solve a riddle which will be provided to you on arrival. Around the property are some great little props which are fun for different photos and there is also a good little 9 hole mini golf course too. The staff are super friendly and there is a small kiosk selling drinks and snacks too. This is a great place for families to visit while in Stanthorpe.

Aloomba Lavender Farm

Reviewed By Poodlesrulehere - Canungra, Australia

A great little place for afternoon tea, and the lady who runs it is so friendly, we asked her to join us. The shop has lots of pretty and interesting things available, and the gardens are beautiful. They have RV parking and overnight stays available. Certainly worth a look.
