QUEENSLANDER STYLE - TIMBER COTTAGES WITH A HISTORY
It's dry, yes, but still beautiful.
The bare pecans have an architectural beauty, the scarcity of water has brought in a flock of brolgas. The surrounding countryside looks to be bunkering down, sleeping, regenerating. Do we be-grudge Nature her wisdom. Maybe we are meant to take a leaf from her Book of Life.
Coming to Childers for a family function, on business & after something different accommodation-wise? Looking for a place & space to soothe and calm the soul and senses?
MANGO HILL COTTAGES BNB might be just what you're looking for.
Cosy cottage ambience, country feel, a dose of over-night 'ahhh and zzzzz.'
Wool blankets and feather donnas are the go but reverse cycle air-con means 'cold frogs' are looked after. Snuggle up with a raft of recipe books and watch the soft rain falling on the fields.
Single- $120 pn, Double (shared Queen) $150 pn, Twin share . $170 pn - breakfast included.

Curious to find out more about what is happening in the winery and in our region in general ????? read more
We wonder why we haven't stayed before this!
Often the nicest places are in your own back yard. How true! CHILDERS is such a green hinterland and, as it is just a hop and a skip from Bundaberg, a great place to escape the work-a-day week. Priceless wonders at hand... a starry sky and a fingernail moon. Charles and Melinda BARGARA May 2019
The reason for my stay was business related but staying here was a bonus I had not expected! read more...
Rustic scenery, good wine, beautiful Queensland weather...
What more do you need for a great getaway!
Welcome to Mango Hill Cottages & Hill Of Promise Winery. Mango Hill Cottages is a Bed & Breakfast accommodation establishment situated just south of Childers, Queensland, Australia.
Hill Of Promise Winery is the perfect holiday attraction while visiting the area. Wine tastings at the cellar door are free so bring along a picnic basket - or even something as simple as a loaf of crusty bread and cheese- to enjoy after a tasting.
Childers, ideally placed half-way between the regional towns of Maryborough and Bundaberg, is on the Bruce Highway, three and a half hours drive North of Brisbane, making it perfectly situated to explore the beauty of South East Queensland.
Mango Hill Cottages offers the chance to escape to the private cosiness of your own timber cottage and enjoy the warmth of traditional, country hospitality at the same time.
Relax and unwind amidst a peaceful rural setting...
We love our little patch of the planet and we would love to share it with you - even if only for a slice of time!

You have thought of everything.
Well done!

A CLEAR SKY AND A FULL MOON
HI MARY AND TERRY
Hi Mary. Your cottage is a very quiet and calm place. We really enjoyed our stay. Watching the full moon from the front verandah was a highlight.
G and R RICHLANDS 25 January 2016
A GREAT STAY, MARY! Please thank your neighbour for the brilliant fire display. Great night-time viewing from the front verandah! M and N BRISBANE 01 May 2017
WE WANTED SOMEWHERE SPECIAL FOR SOMETHING SPECIAL AND IT WAS!
Hectic lives, busy jobs, kids..... need somewhere not too far away but relaxing. Quick phone call to Mary had a few plans put in place. We both enjoyed some 'just us' time. Wine tasting, easy meal on the verandah watching the night sky. Hmmm.... life's pretty darn good. Thanks, Mary and Terry.

We came, we stayed , we relaxed.
It's been a challenging year and we needed 'a bit of country' to re-calibrate the heart and soul. The cottages were just the salve needed. We used them as a haven to come back to each evening after setting out each day to 'happen up' the beauty of this part of Queensland. don't underestimate what a steamer chair on a verandah overlooking green hills can do for you.
