Spicers Clovelly Estate evokes the quiet charm of a French provincial retreat, set among the rolling hills of the Sunshine Coast Hinterland.

Inside, elegantly appointed suites offer plush furnishings, marble ensuites, and the inviting warmth of a crackling fireplace. At this Montville retreat, moments unfold effortlessly, whether over a leisurely breakfast on the terrace or an evening glass of wine beside the fire. A destination where relaxed luxury, refined hospitality and timeless elegance combine.
Experience An Unforgettable French-Inspired Montville Stay In Queensland
Intertwining French-inspired elegance with the natural splendour of the Sunshine Coast hinterland, Spicers Clovelly Estate is a luxury Montville hotel that offers a tranquil escape designed for those who seek beauty in the details. Graceful interiors, adorned with soft linen, antique furnishings, and curated artworks, create an atmosphere that feels both indulgent and effortless. Guests are invited to slow down, to wander through manicured gardens, or to experience the award-winning Long Apron restaurant, where seasonal produce and culinary artistry take centre stage.
Your journey to a more beautiful and romantic time and place begins from the moment you arrive. The enchanting tree-lined driveway winds towards the grand French provincial style guest house, where the classic muted colours and soft textures of the luxurious décor provide a picture of serenity.
Hearty modern French bistro cuisine – as imagined by the two-hatted Long Apron restaurant – is served in the plush dining room and shaded verandah, while the surrounding gardens spill with fruit and flavours. The gastronomic adventures don’t end there, as guests often enjoy a picnic hamper by nearby Lake Baroon, taste delicate petit fours in the library, or do a spot of wine tasting in the lounge or bar.
The opulent guest suites are a study of intricate design and measured extravagance. The heated marble bathrooms, modern French furnishings, luxurious linens, soothing hot tubs and quiet reading nooks all combine to offer the perfect sanctuary. Larger groups can enjoy a true home away from home experience: Montville House features six unique bedrooms, all with private ensuites, and the French Cottage boasts three stunning bedrooms, two Carrara marble bathrooms, a private outdoor spa and a personal kitchen.
From the peaceful terrace swimming pool to the revitalising Spa Anise Day Spa, from the rainforest walking trail to a gentle game of lawn bowls, there’s an activity for every mood and every whim. And if that’s not enough, the nearby villages of Montville and Maleny are home to artisan crafts, inviting cafes, local food producers and craft breweries, all waiting to be discovered.
With romance close to its heart, Spicers Clovelly Estate is deservedly a coveted wedding destination. The lush garden settings, magnificent reception venue, award-winning food and intuitive service satisfy the wishes of even the most discerning of guests.
