Car Hire in Amberley - Mini guide to Amberley
Located 14 kilometers southwest of Ipswich and 50km west of Brisbane, Amberly is the home of Australia's largest airbase. Although it is an important strategic military destination, there is little known about it as a travel destination.
Upon your arrival into Brisbane or Ipswich, you will most likely need to acquire a car hire for your travel to Amberly. You will find a wide selection of hires to choose from at the airport or at one of the agencies located near the airports.
From the airport you will enjoy a scenic drive to Amberly. Amberly has played an important role in the RAAF since World War II when it was a training base for the US Army Corps. For the last 50 years it has been a major home centre for Lincoln, Canberras, F-4 Phantoms and the F-111 aircraft.
Once in Amberly there are just a few hotels immediately in the area. The Bredon Downs is a renovated 100 year old ostrich farmhouse offering guests a quaint and peaceful stay. From the farmhouse you are just minutes from exploring the area wineries. A delicious three-course dinner featuring local wines is available if requested in advance.
Most accommodations will be located in Ipswich and will give you a good base to explore the mysterious, military history of Amberly yet enjoy the dining, culture and nightlife of a larger town. Amberly is considered part of the Ipswich community.
Enjoy the Queensland Raceway, the Workshops Railway Museum, Willowbank Raceway or the Nerima Gardens and the Goodna Aquatic Centre while enjoying your visit to Amberly and Ipswich.
