Our Favourite Links - How To Discover More About The South Burnett

K & P Homes is headquartered in Kingaroy, the capital of the South Burnett region of Queensland, Australia. And while we're happy to build homes in a wide area around Kingaroy (anywhere from Roma and Wide Bay to Toowoomba), most of our clients are located in the South Burnett itself.

But if you're unfamiliar with the Kingaroy and/or the South Burnett, these links will give you a much better idea of why so many people have begun to move to this wonderful area in recent years:

Our region's internet portal was established in 2000 and it's the single most comprehensive source of information about all aspects of this area. It has live daily news; a comprehensive daily events calendar; a weekly cinema guide; local eBay sales and classifieds; listings of all the region's websites; a Major Annual Events calendar; live daily weather forecasts; and much much more.

Our region's online business database is part of the South Burnett Online network and it provides details of all the 2000+ businesses you can find in the South Burnett. It's much easier to search than the Yellow Pages and much, much better than Google (which - of necessity - only lists businesses that have web sites). And it's also incredibly fast. If you're looking for anything from a hairdresser to a baker, this is the resource to use!

The South Burnett is one of Queensland's two biggest wine regions and if you're interested in wine, this website lists everything you'd ever want to know about the South Burnett's wineries and cellar doors.

Our region's online medical and health services directory is part of the South Burnett Online network and it provides details of all the medical and health services available in the South Burnett. SB Health also provides regular news about developments in local health services, along with information about who to complain to if things go awry.

Thinking about visiting the South Burnett? Then you should use South Burnett Tourism as your first port of call. This terrific website lists every tourist facility in the region (from accommodation right through to cafes and service stations) and unlike the online tourist guides produced by the Queensland Government, it lists all tourist facilities - not just Tourism Queensland's members!

The Kingaroy Chamber of Commerce and Industry is the region's peak business body and their role is to act as a united voice for the local business community when it speaks to Government, as well as provide help for new businesses starting up in the area. The KCCI run regular Meet & Greet sessions for new businesses and many other worthwhile activities throughout the year.

The Wine & Food In The Park Festival is held in Memorial Pak in Kingaroy on the second Saturday of March each year. Since 1998 this festival has grown to become one of the largest food and wine festivals in Queensland. It's also a family-oriented event and a great day out.

The Kingaroy Peanut Festival is also held annually (usually in August or September) and it draws thousands of visitors from all over the South Burnett and south-east Queensland. Kingaroy is well-known as the peanut processing capital of Australia and the Peanut Festival celebrates the important role that peanuts have played - and continue to play - in the South Burnett's economy.

If you're visiting Kingaroy and looking for accommodation, can we suggest the Kingaroy Holiday Park and Cabins? They have the largest range of cabin, caravan and camping site accommodation in Kingaroy and their ultra-modern park provides all the facilities you need for a great stay.
