COSY COUNTRY TOWNS TO VISIT

As the cooler winter months descend upon us, there really is no better time to embark on a family road trip to one of the picturesque country towns surrounding Brisbane. With their scattering of cafés and pubs warmed by open fires, undulating green hills, colourful market stalls, and welcoming locals, below are some of the best cosy country towns to road trip to this winter.

SAMFORD

Distance from Brisbane: 22km

It may only be a 30-minute drive from Brisbane, but visiting the magical village of Samford will make you feel like you are worlds away from your city life.

The first stop on arrival for most families is The Store of Requirement, where you can enjoy a warming glass of Butterbeer while the kids explore the official Harry Potter merchandise. Afterwards, you can discover the local museum and heritage trail and visit the many craft stores and cafés located within the village.

DAYBORO

Distance from Brisbane: 22km

Continuing on the main road north from Samford for 25km, you will discover the delightfully laidback township of Dayboro. Known by locals as ‘the town of yesteryear’, a visit to Dayboro will have you stepping back in time, with many historical buildings and stores standing proud.

A true country town which oozes charm and family-friendly fun, stop in for a bite to eat and hot chocolate at the Dayboro Bakery before checking out the local craft stores. Walk the heritage trail, visit the art gallery, or take a scenic drive along the winding roads to Mt Mee.

DIY STRAWBERRY AND FRUIT PICKING BRISBANE

There is something special about picking fruit directly from the land in which it’s grown that makes it taste that little bit sweeter. In Brisbane, there are numerous farms and orchards that offer this hands-on experience, providing children with a lesson on where their food comes from, and giving them a plentiful supply of goodness to take home too.

Dates are subject to change and costs vary with each farm. Some farms also offer produce outside picking seasons. Always check individual farm social media pages before visiting to avoid disappointment.

HELPFUL TIPS WHEN FRUIT PICKING

• Visit individual social media pages first to ensure the farms are open and welcoming visitors

• Dress for #farmlife. Even if the weather is fine, fruiting plants require a lot of water so the ground can still be muddy.

• Pack a plastic bag to store muddy shoes in for the drive home.

• Pack snacks. Fruit picking is hungry business even if they let you eat the spoils as you go (note: not all farms allow this, so check before you start snacking)

• Bring some wet wipes to clean sticky fingers, grubby faces and dirty limbs.

Even if the weather isn’t great outside, you can jump your hearts out on the interconnecting trampolines

or become a ninja warrior at BOUNCE Inc in Burleigh Waters.

Winter is the perfect time to go whale watching on the Gold Coast, with several options for spotting these majestic creatures on their migration off the coast of South-East Queensland.

Pay a visit to the Jellurgal Aboriginal Cultural Centre, which will allow your whole family to immerse themselves in local Aboriginal culture in an engaging and active way.
