We built Embers over the last 20 years, starting out with a caravan and some old timber from the cattle yards. Our home has been used for photo shoots, special occasions and featured in the Sunshine Coast Daily's '7 Amazing Stays on the Sunshine Coast' - 8 September 2016.

Our home is a series of prefabricated cabins designed by Peter and built by Glendale Homes, who he has worked with for over 30 years. We are very pleased to be able to share our home with others and hope that the memories you create here are as fond to you as the the ones we have created with our family.

ANOTHER MEMORABLE STAY AT BEAUTIFUL EMBERS
We had hired Embers a few years ago for my husband's 60th so we could have our whole family stay. Everyone loved it so much we decided to come back for my 60th Birthday. As usual, Carolyn and Peter were nothing short of amazing and their attention to detail is incredible. Everything about Embers is wonderful, especially the huge deck allowing us all to lounge around and chat, the kids to play....even while enjoying listening to the pouring rain on the roof and looking out to the spectacular view - the lush green grass, magnificent old tree and the dam complete with ducks. The pizza oven was fantastic as was the large oven in the chef-equipped level kitchen. The grounds are really beautiful and very lush given all the recent rain. The weather was incredibly hot and muggy while we were there, so the only thing to note, in very hot weather, is that the Frangipanni & Bunk Rooms are not air conditioned, though there are fans. The pool was also great and very well used by us all. We had 8 adults staying with 8 grand children ranging in age from 1 - 10. We all loved it. Embers remains our first choice for any kind of family gatherings/functions where a beautiful, welcoming and extremely comfortable space is required. Thank you again so much, Carolyn and Peter. Your hard work over many years has certainly resulted in creating amazing memories for our family. Best wishes, Bron & Don xx

Women's Retreat
The set up of the property was perfect for our retreat. All the bedrooms were equipped with a bathroom and were placed around the central lodge containing the kitchen and eating/communal spaces. Also beautifully decked out with homely touches. The land surrounding was beautiful and peaceful. We all had a lovely time there and will definitely be back.

Breathtaking!
The property photos did not do it justice! The rooms were lovely and inviting. The layout of the main residence was relaxing and catered for relaxing to watching tv, to playing games and having a coffee while watching the ducks roam. Highly recommend for any family or friends gathering.

Amazing Property for a Small Wedding
We booked the property for a wedding of approx 10-12 guests. Carolyn exceeded all expectations, allowing us to view the property a few months beforehand and also recommended local catering company, Thistle in the Woods (also amazing!). Aside from some wet weather, we could not fault the stay at all. The shared outdoor deck space and large lounge/dining areas were perfect for our needs, together with the seperate bedrooms which gave everyone their own space. Would highly recommend this property!

60th birthday getaway
I booked Embers to celebrate my partner’s 60th over 2 nights with our closest friends and we had the most memorable time. We enjoyed spending time together on the deck, in the kitchen, around the pool & going for walks, but there was also enough space for privacy if needed. The kitchen is well equipped, and definitely a cook’s kitchen and we made the most of the pizza oven and bbq. Although I didn’t get to meet Carolyn, she was easy to communicate with and the booking process was easy. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting to book a special place for a large group wanting to enjoy a special celebration.

Family get together
A perfect location to be together but still have your own privacy. The beach and walking tours are at reasonable distances. The property is well maintained and contains a variety of games for young children, to be played outdoors or at the covered deck area. We really enjoyed our long weekend stay at the Embers.

Fantastic location for large family groups!
Our family of 14 had an amazing stay at Embers. The kitchen was stocked with more than we needed, and the bedrooms were clean with comfy beds and all necessary amenities included. We also appreciated the heaters and mosquito coils provided (note it can be chilly at night). Our family absolutely loved the fire-pit and fire oven. Would definitely recommend for a relaxing family getaway! Communication with Carolyn and Peter was also clear and they were very helpful with any questions we had. A special mention to the ducks! Our family really enjoyed waking up early to feed them as duck food was provided. Our family would love to stay again in the future!

"Amazing Unique Property"
I am extremely happy & overwhelmed by the kindness & generosity of the owners of the unique property. We were caught in the latest floods whilst celebrating my husbands 60th birthday with all our kids & grandchildren. Carolyn kept in contact with me over the few days making sure we were ok. She offered for us to stay until we could get out as we were flooded in. This property is amazing for large groups & we are all talking about coming back again real soon. I would highly recommend 😊

Embers at Landers Shoot is a beautiful home- perfect for an extended family gathering. A stunningly beautiful property with ample room for children to play (and swim!), and for all to relax, both in comfortable communal areas and tranquil individual spaces.

Great accommodation for groups
We have a group of families who have a tradition of gathering together for New Years Eve. This was a perfect space for us to gather this year. Everyone enjoyed having their own family space and bathroom. We loved coming together for meals in the communal areas. The pizza oven and fire pit were great. We appreciated the well equipped kitchen and thoughtful touches from the hosts. We brought in the New Year with the complimentary champagne - thank you! It was in a beautiful, peaceful and private setting and close to lots of lovely little townships and bush walks for exploring. Highly recommend this place; it’s one of the best we’ve stayed at!

Birthday Break with Friends
Embers was the perfect place to getaway for a few days and completely relax. Beautiful location with a fantastic backdrop overlooking the lake. The accommodation was set out perfectly for entertaining and chilling. Everything we needed was supplied. The only time we left the property was for a dinner in Montville Pub who provided a courtesy bus to pick up and drop off. We parked up , unpacked our drinks and food and didn't have to drive again until we left for home. Thank you to Carolyn and Peter for sharing this beautiful peace of paradise.

Excellent escape
We had an absolutely wonderful time at this property for 2 nights. Great communication from the owner leading up to our stay and wonderful personal touches included. The rooms are beautiful and it allowed privacy in each cabin but a nice communal area to hang out together to eat/swim/roast marshmallows. Will definitely be planning to come back :)

About the host

Peter & I moved to the Sunshine Coast in 1980

Why they chose this property

Dear friends/neighbours of ours purchased 36 Roys Rd in 1999 and when we came to see their new place, fell in love with 38 and became neighbours again!
My eldest Son often jokes how he was worried when we bought the place as it was a 'bit of a swamp' (you couldn't see over the grass). We were ready for a tree change and a challenge and always enjoyed the peaceful township of Palmwoods so made the move to Landers Shoot. Our children are adults so we wanted to develop our home in a way that could be enjoyed by multiple families and different generations. All our children have contributed to the space in many ways and it has become a sanctuary to not only us, but our family as well.

What makes this property unique

It's hard to describe the unique benefits. More than anything, this is a place where memories are created. It's a human friendly, outdoor focused space connected to the environment in a way that fosters fun, connection & conversation. We enjoy fabulous views over the property, pool, gardens, giant figs and a large dam. There is ample shade in Summer and plenty of Sun in winter. If your stress levels don't go down here you should probably see a doctor:-)
