About this property

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.

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.

About the host

Hosted by Zahra

Host profile image
We both have a love for travel and hosting, and that's how we met 10 years ago. I Zahra was a tour guide and an interpreter and Brad was traveling around the world for 2.5 years through backpacking ad cycling. Since then we have tried to share our love for travel by either working in the tourism sector or hosting travelers from all different places. We started hosting guests at Potters place in July 2022. We hope we can offer a relaxing time with beautiful views to enjoy, in the heart of Montville township to our guests as we continuously work towards improving the guest experience.

Why they chose this property

In the center of Montville Village Historical Precinct yet secluded with privacy and wide northern views. Cafes, restaurants and shops are within a stone's throw. One of the first 5 blocks of land in Montville with Salvation Army ownership in the late 1800's from the region's earliest logging days and horseback riders for first congregations of views and cricket games next door with first nations in the Village Green.

What makes this property unique

Private detached cottage proudly sitting as the sole building on the property. Fireplace, wide deck and northern views over the valley and coastline.
