Description
Myola is the quintessential Queenslander, sitting proudly atop the rolling green hills of Dayboro. Her restoration has been a labour of love, showcasing the beauty of traditional Queensland architecture; charming wrap around verandahs, VJ’s, high ceilings, french doors and hopscotch windows. We have incorporated reclaimed materials, vintage fittings, handmade furniture and a curated range of family heirlooms, art and trinkets found during renovations. The views from the house are spectacular; of mountain ranges and rolling hills, the sparkling lights of Brisbane city and Moreton Island beyond.
The large country kitchen features a freestanding Falcon cooker, farmhouse ceramic sink, extended butcher’s block and traditional kitchen table. The kitchen is well stocked with tea, coffee, sugar and oil as well as everything you might need for cooking and dining. This space flows onto the veranda and outdoor dining table for long lunches and family dinners.
There are 3 spacious bedrooms (1x King size bed, 1x Queen size bed, 2x King Single beds), with the beds dressed in quality linen. The main bathroom features a beautiful clawfoot tub, perfect for a relaxing soak. The second bathroom has the cutest walk in shower, with quality personal care products provided.
There is a cozy lounge room with TV, and what used to be the ‘ball room’ is a second spacious lounge room with a lovely wood burner and comfy leather lounges. The ‘ball room’ can also be converted into a workshop / studio space. The wrap around veranda has various spots perfect for a cup of tea or a beverage whilst admiring the view.
A short walk from the house will lead to you to the fire pit area; toast marshmallows while you enjoy the huge skies and sparking lights of Brisbane city.

Booking Policy
House Rules
Children and pets on request, noting that Myola is a rural property and accordingly you may encounter livestock, creeks, dams, native wildlife and other hazards during your stay. The fencing on the property is stock fencing and will not contain dogs.
We welcome events, elopements and photoshoots, please contact us to discuss (written agreement required, full house rate & additional fees apply). Otherwise, Myola is to be enjoyed by booked guests only, please.
Being somewhat of an elderly lady, Myola has a few ‘heritage’ quirks. Whilst she does not have air conditioning, her hilltop location ensures an ever present breeze, with ceiling fans also installed throughout. The beautiful fig tree adjacent also provides natural temperature regulation. Her timber changes with the weather, causing windows to stick, or gaps in the VJs or floorboards to widen and the like.
We ask guests to be conscious of their water usage, as Myola is on tank water. Whilst Dayboro and surrounds used to be known as ‘God’s Country’ due to its high rainfall, it is not as much, as regular or predictable as it once was.
We are in a rural setting and are lucky enough to spot wildlife regularly, including kangaroos, wallabies, all manner of birds, frogs, snakes and lots of insects.
Phone reception is excellent, but wifi is not available. Take the opportunity to disconnect, relax and recharge!
We find beauty in all (well... most) of her foibles, but… if these quirks sound more like inconveniences to you, this property may not be suitable for your needs.
