Potters Place Montville with Hinterland Views, Deck, Fireplace

Potters Place is a country-style cottage uniquely positioned in the heart of the Montville Historical center behind Memorial Close. With 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, suits up to a family of five. Situated on a very secluded, private acreage balanced on the escarpment’s edge (Razorback), Potters self-contained accommodation has breathtaking ocean and hinterland views directly in the middle of all the cafes, shops, art galleries and restaurants of Montville.

While Potters place does not offer the most modern house, but will offer a unique experience in a house full of character with history. On New Year’s Day 1897, ten Salvationists from Nambour rode to Razorback to lend support to local Salvationists, it was decided to open an outpost at Razorback ( where Potters Place is Currently). Wooden barracks were constructed at a cost of £28.00 using timber donated by a local sawmiller. This first Church in the district was used by all denominations. After a cyclone destroyed the barracks in 1903, services continued in the Hall which had just been completed. The block was purchased by George and Olive Carpenter in 1959 for £10.00. At the time it was a steep, tangled wilderness of lantana with wild sunflower completely covering generations of rubbish from the blacksmithy across the street. Today the home that the Carpenters built in 1974 is now called Potters Place and welcomes quests hoping share its history and beautiful location with everyone. (https://montvillehistory.org.au/projects/salvation-army-barracks/)

The name Potters Place comes from the existing pottery business that existed several decades ago - remnants of funky pottery scattered around the property.

What a view

We loved everything about our stay at Potters Place. Breakfast on the deck with an amazing view was a great way to start the day. There is so much to do locally, loved checking out the local galleries and so great waterfalls. The house is really well equipped and super comfy. We would love to come back.

Unbeatable Views and Location

We had a wonderful stay. The views were breathtaking and beautiful. Could not get enough! The location is fantastic. The Main Street is just off the doorstep and perfect and easy for a wander. The local pub is just over the road as well. Both Maleny and Mapleton are a short drive away making this an ideal base. Plus we enjoyed sitting by the fire each night with a glass of wine. I would really recommend the house and will certainly visit again!

Private and Central

Potters Place is quite the surprise, situated in the heart of the busy Montville retail area. It is quiet, yet in convenient walking distance to everything Montville has to offer, and very relaxing. The enormous deck has a superb outlook, and really is only missing a couple of patio deckchairs to lie back for a snooze under the trees after an outdoor meal. Thank you for a great stay, we hope to return!

We enjoyed 4 nights at Potters Place and wished we could have stayed longer. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. We loved the central location and enjoyed exploring all the unique shops and cafes in Montville The view from every window was stunning and we enjoyed sitting out on the huge deck. Communication with Zahra was easy and prompt.

Potters Place has a fantastic view with a huge balcony really nice house fully self-contained. I went there with my mother two brothers and a nephew for a family getaway, it was perfect. Absolutely brilliant place to visit. It’s right in town literally, it’s the only Residence in town. So you have no neighbours at night. Huge views did I say? Awesome.

Old fashioned comfort

We had an amazing couple of days in Montville. Potter's Place suited us perfectly and most of that was down to the view. Simply stunning! As a sociable, cafe dog who loves a walk, our pup also had a fabulous time. She seems sad to be back home.

The house was beautiful with a magnificent view of the valley. Being in the heart of Montville, we parked the car and didn't need to move it again until we left - access to restaurants and shops was within walking distance. Enjoyable stay and would definitely consider this home again.

MONTVILLE INDULGENCE

Comfortable stay at Potters Place on the edge of a spectacular view. All home comforts and crackling fire enhanced our Christmas in July celebrations. The Edge Restaurant, a few metres away served the best coffee and scones by another crackling fire. A Christmas atmosphere was enjoyed at The Montville Pub. Shopping seduces one to indulgent purchases It is a cosy comfort to return to Potters Place only steps away with all home comforts, enjoying an expansive view, sparkling wine and birds warbling before sunset.

We loved Potter’s Place ❤️

Stunning views, comfy bed, clean and well-maintained. We had a lovely time at Potters Place. The stars were amazing, and it would’ve been great to have a couple of outdoor recliner chairs on the verandah for more comfortable viewing of the amazing surroundings. A beach umbrella would also come in handy as the deck is in full sun in the mornings. Hoping to visit again soon!
