The history of Woodlands is one of a pioneer spirit, with the mansion being the home of the Smith family from 1890. Moving from a timber producer to sugar cane, then to a rum distillery, the property was sold in 1944 to the Order of the Divine Word and used as a rest home. In 1986, it was bought by Ipswich Grammar School and was used for personal development courses, then in 2002 it was purchased by the Cooper family, who are the current owners and have lovingly restored the estate.
