Brisbanites, where shall I go to celebrate my 40th?

thing is, I just want to go somewhere quiet and mountainous with dh and the dc's (2.4 and 4m) for a weekend. On a shoestring - but not camping.

Any thoughts?

Springbrook Mountain area is nice aswell, can find some good accomodation there.
Bit further down than Tamborine but worth it views and walks are lovely.
I love Tamborine too, especially going for coffee at The Polish Place. As long as you dont mind the Lorikeets.

Can I ask if you know any good playgroups in Brisbane and things for kids to do?
We are moving back after 18 months in U.K with dd1 4 3/4 and dd2 22 months.
I beleive our old playgroup has disbanded.

Not sure how we will get on after being surrounded by my family and friends for 18 months and am a bit daunted.

Thanks
