Stannum is Latin for tin and thorp is English for village. The town of Stanthorpe (pop. 5500) is now the beating heart of the Granite Belt. There is a rich multicultural and agricultural heritage, and a cosmopolitan mix of residents, backpackers and travellers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flowing through the town is the beautiful Quart Pot Creek. Here there are more than 5km of walking and cycling tracks and great picnic and BBQ facilities. In Stanthorpe\u2019s main CBD, you will discover an amazing range of caf\u00e9s, shops, gift stores and an art gallery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enjoy our European traditions, sit and relax in the Stanthorpe Piazza, with boutique coffee in hand. Or sit under the famous Roll Up Tree public art piece and watch the world go by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stanthorpe is an attractive rural service centre set in the middle of a rich, mixed farming area. Here rural activities range from vineyards, wineries and orchards to sheep and cattle grazing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stanthorpe is unusually cool for Queensland. In winter the night time temperatures in the town often fall below zero. The average minimum temperature for July is 0.3\u00b0C (there\u2019s even an occasional winter snow-fall!).&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today the district is known for its cold climate apples, grapes and stone fruit as well as sheep and cattle grazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"location\">Location<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Stanthorpe is located on the New England Highway 217 km south-west from Brisbane via Warwick. It is 57 km north of Tenterfield and 811 m above sea level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/listing\/stanthorpe-airstrip-queensland\/\">Nearest Airport<\/a><\/strong><\/td><td><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/listing\/attractions-in-stanthorpe\/\">Attractions<\/a><\/strong><\/td><td><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/listing\/dining-in-stanthorpe\/\">Dining<\/a><\/strong><\/td><td><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/listing\/accommodation-in-stanthorpe\/\">Accommodation<\/a><\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1875,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","listing-category":[119],"list-tags":[],"location":[116],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v14.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Stanthorpe Queensland | Country Airstrips Australia<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Stanthorpe in Queensland, in the heart of the Granite Belt, gives access to big sky panoramas, spectacular countryside and a cooler, climate.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/listing\/stanthorpe-queensland\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Stanthorpe Queensland | Country Airstrips Australia\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Stanthorpe in Queensland, in the heart of the Granite Belt, gives access to big sky panoramas, spectacular countryside and a cooler, climate.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/listing\/stanthorpe-queensland\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Country Airstrips Australia\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2023-04-22T15:11:20+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/StanthorpeTown.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1300\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"548\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":[\"Person\",\"Organization\"],\"@id\":\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/#\/schema\/person\/80124d79dedf8684f066a78e14eada5a\",\"name\":\"admin\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/#personlogo\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/plugins\/userswp\/assets\/images\/no_profile.png\",\"caption\":\"admin\"},\"logo\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/#personlogo\"}},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/\",\"name\":\"Country Airstrips Australia\",\"description\":\"Airstrip, Accommodation, Food &amp;
