The Hidden Delights of Charming Eumundi

Tucked away in lush rainforest connecting the glittering Noosa coastline to the foot of Mount Cooroy, Eumundi has long been the creative and cultural hub of the Sunshine Coast. Though widely known for its beloved twice-weekly Eumundi Markets, beyond the bustling stalls lies a collection of atmospheric treasures that truly capture the essence of this heritage township’s vibrant heart and relaxed charm. Whether you’re an art lover, bookworm, foodie, or fashionista, Eumundi offers something a little special for everyone. Here’s a guide to our top six must-visit spots that make this town truly shine.

Timbercraftsman Studio Gallery

Few establishments reflect the heart and soul of Eumundi more than the Timbercraftsman Studio Gallery. Located in the town centre, this boutique space showcases stunning works by local woodworker David Suters, whose handcrafted furniture, striking timber art and sculpture share the spotlight with a curated cache of works by emerging and established guest artisans from all corners of the country.

From resin inlaid natural wood décor and delicately crafted sculptures, to sweet trinket boxes and custom furniture commissions, Timbercraftsman pieces are sure to infuse your home with the inimitable charm of this unique maker and region. 

Berkelouw Book Barn & Café

Taking pride of place in the former Eumundi Trading Post Building, this local outpost of Australia’s oldest bookseller is a delightfully rustic pause amid the township bustle. Shelving everything from bestsellers to rare and antique editions to thousands of secondhand titles on its heritage racks, Berkelouw’s slow and inviting atmosphere makes it all too easy to lose track of time as you leisurely flip through pages. Grab a coffee and sweet treat at the adjoining café to enjoy the blissful experience just a little longer.
