Under the open country sky...



Under the open country sky, there's a quiet charm that defines the simplicity of rural nights. The expanse above, wide open spaces, stars shining bright. Away from the buzz of city life, a busy life - the country atmosphere is a place to relax, enjoy good company and what nature has to offer. 


We are lucky here at the Maryvale Crown Hotel to be a small village hotel that holds a big piece of history in our region. From the dining hall and into the bar, wandering up the stairs you will find photos, maps and plenty of historic memorabilia that tells the story. We are also situated in the southern downs region amongst many fantastic camping grounds that offer the full package of a memorable country experience.


If you’re looking to escape for a weekend away for adventure, bushwalking, bird watching or even just a getaway to take a pause and share stories by a campfire, under the night sky - here are few places you may not have considered:
