Top place!! Used to go there (infrequently) when I frequented the
Aratula Dropzone, but haven't been there for quite some years.

Spent the last long weekend there for a convention/conference...... and
had a *ball*!!

Didn't go to my old stomping ground at Dugandens, but went and tried
just about every other pub in the place!!

The Australian is good to drink at and have a feed, but if you want pub
accomodation, stay at the Commercial. The Comm also has Foxtel in the
main bar. Simons Pub is Ok, but too close to a rather steep downhill
slope!! (And a bit too closed in for me.)
(Pub rooms from about $75 for 2 nights at the Aus.)

I stayed at the brand spanking new Boonah Valley Motel. Right next door
to "The Outlook". How many people can say that they spent their weekend
in a 'virgin' bed??!!
Not your usual motel style accomodation, more duplex 4star cabin, on a
long winding road down from the reception and (*bloody good*)
restaurant. Room 14 even has a spa :-) Heaps of wildlife at the back
patio, and you can sit there and have `sundowners`and watch the owners
horse herd race full tilt across the hills when they get called for a
feed at about 5.30pm
Rooms will set you back about $135 a night. But they are *worth* it!!
(Flat screen Tv`s, spas, very modern fittings.......... and hand basins
that you could almost have a bath in!!)

Call Sally Summers on 5463 4738



The locals are friendly, the beer is cold, the food is great, the
steaks even better, and they even have some decent wine.
Sat morn in the main street is a hoot!!
