Peppers Spicers Peak Lodge

Located 1½ hours drive south-west of Brisbane (or 2 hours from Brisbane airport), surrounded by the World Heritage-listed Main Range National Park, Spicers Peak is a haven of luxury, relaxation and gastronomic delights.

This ten room architecturally designed lodge sits on a mountain top at 1130 metres. Floor to ceiling glass makes the most of the breathtaking vistas and the lodge’s heated horizon swimming pool and jazuzzi are perfectly positioned to take full advantage of the stunning surroundings.

Each of the ten suites exudes elegance and style with luxurious king-size beds, CD and DVD players and of course, wonderful views – most also have stone fireplaces and French doors opening onto an outdoor seating area.

Gourmet Food and Wine

Fabulous food and wine feature high on the agenda – and all meals and beverages are included in your stay. Pre-dinner cocktails and canapés are served in the stunning guest lounge each evening (or on the outdoor balcony at sunset), followed by dinner which is an exquisite seven course dégustation affair, complemented by matching wines.

Lunch is either served at the lodge – or alternatively, the attentive staff will be only too happy to prepare a gourmet picnic hamper or even set up a beautiful lunch in the surrounding countryside to replenish you whilst you’re out exploring.

There are numerous bush walks from the property and mountain bikes are provided for guests’ use. There is also a tennis court, a small massage room (offering wonderfui hot stone treatments), a billiards table and a telescope for stargazing.

The emphasis at Spicers Peak is on pure relaxation and indulgence in a truly breathtaking setting – a two night stay is recommended.
