Mt Cotton Retreat is a beautiful bush retreat, ideal for couples and families, found half an hour's drive from Brisbane's CBD on the side of Mt Cotton. 

Located on a private 20 hectare nature refuge, Boom-Ber-Pee, this award-winning retreat offers tranquility and relaxation with boutique bed and breakfast accommodation in tastefully decorated rooms and suites, as well as secluded, self-contained, luxury eco-cabins.

Five beautifully appointed cabins are set over a steep embankment surrounded by treetops, two are nestled in the bush beside a lake with water lilies, and one 2-bedroom family-friendly cottage is located near the bed and breakfast. Two of the cabins are pet friendly with dog bedding and bowls provided for well-behaved four-legged guests.
