# Hoop Pine

The northern-most of the three two-storey cabins. Quietly set apart, with the longest lake view and rainforest at the back door.

Hoop Pine carries the same two-storey plan as Rose Gum and Iron Bark – king bed upstairs, two stowable singles, sofa bed in the lounge, bathroom and kitchen below – but sits set deliberately apart at the northern edge of the property.

The upstairs balcony catches first light over the lake. Whip birds will usually be your alarm. Downstairs, the lounge opens to a covered patio with a hooded BBQ and a long outdoor dining table – handy for the longer stays this cabin tends to attract.

Inside, the plan is open and unhurried: living and kitchen flow together, the bath set near the fireplace where the heat collects. Pale timber, brushed black ironmongery, sage linen, soft white walls.

## The cabin *up close*.

A two-storey self-contained Montville cabin with upstairs sleeping, downstairs living, private BBQ patio, lake outlook.

> Rain on the roof. Bath drawn. Two storeys, designed to feel like one room.

## The morning

A continental hamper is stocked in the cabin for the length of your stay: cereals, bread, butter, jams, juice, milk. Each morning Michael delivers fresh croissants to the door. Coffee from the kitchen, taken on the patio.

## The evening

Welcome chocolates wait on the kitchen bench. From April to September, firewood is supplied for the slow-combustion fireplace; light it from the basket beside the hearth and run the spa bath deep. The possums usually come down to the lawn around dusk.

## Beyond the cabin

Kondalilla National Park starts on the property boundary; the trailhead to the falls is a short walk. Montville village is a five-minute drive for cafés, galleries and the historic clock shop. Maleny and Mapleton sit a little further along the ridge.
