QUEENSLAND

Mountain House Co.

Bringing more charm into everyday life is the ethos that underpins this enchanting store, located in the luscious surrounds of Tamborine Mountain within the Gold Coast hinterland. The shop’s owner, 26-year-old Rebecca Isijanovski, says it always takes your eyes a little while to adjust as you walk inside the rambling cottage from the bright sunlight outdoors. When they do, a farmhouse-style space unfolds, with cool, dark tones of wood and blackboard forming the canvas for a treasure trove of designer homewares. Rebecca cites her inspiration as a “mix of the European countryside, the wilds of the Australian landscape and the artistic offerings of major metropolises like New York and London”. We love Mimosa Botanicals’ small-batch Australian bath soaks and essential oil perfumes, locally made Comfort & Calm ceramics and Rebecca’s beautiful range of woven market baskets. 128 Long Road, Tamborine Mountain, 0403 236 901, mountainhouseco.com.au
