Did you ever read the Australasian Post? They had an ongoing cartoon about the Ettamogah Pub, which led to a chain of Ettamogah Pubs, one of which was in Palmview on the Bruce Highway. It’s a part of the Aussie World theme park now and called The Pub at Aussie World.

Trust Tripadvisor

Tripadvisor says that Aussie World is spotless, that the staff are nice and there are no queues, kids like it — and it is affordable and very safety conscious.

And you can rely on the beauty and hospitality of the Sunshine Coast

Palmview is terrific — there are lovely houses and gardens, but then what do you expect in the wonderful hinterland of the glorious Sunshine Coast? There really is everything you could possibly want, from the weather to the views to the way of life, and from the dunes to the mangroves to the lakes. Whether you like biking or surfing, eating or watching — it’s all right on your doorstep.

Clynic — by appointment only

And Landsborough is not far away — where you’ll find Clynic on Old Gympie Road. Lyn O’Connor always wanted to be a facial therapist and specialise in a cosmetic tattooing, and that is what she has been doing for over 20 years now, “designing and creating a fresh, timeless and effortless image,” as she puts it.

Clynic only uses the very best products — the ones Lyn believes in. Aspect, Intraceuticals and Minerelle are all state of the art, cutting edge Australian skin solutions, which have taken years to develop and are not tested on animals.
