Choose from three self-contained and well-equipped chalets built to be eco-friendly and run to encourage sustainable practices, all of them still providing a comfortable place to rest and relax.
ecoRidge Hideaway is located only a 15 minute drive from the Garden City of Toowoomba and 90 minutes West of Brisbane. The chalets are surrounded by natural bushland and all the wildlife that inhabits it. To get some exercise and explore the property further, a 3km Nature trail is maintained open.
Perched on a ridge of the Great Dividing Range at 620m in altitude, all three chalets are set to take the mountain and valley views in.
The chalets open the North-East, from where you can let the sun greet you every morning in a beautifully sky lit show.

April 2024,
Dear Visitors,
Welcome the season of Autumn at ecoRidge Hideaway.
- As the season settles in, the weather will get cooler, making it the ideal time for some hiking. Warm up on our 3km nature trail and further explore other walking trails in the area and neighbouring National Parks.
- Slow down and take the invitation to relaxation the natural surroundings offer.
- Explore the garden city of Toowoomba, the local markets, the expensive and quality street art, the regional art galleries, the museums. Recharge yourself at the many cafes and restaurants. Book a show at the Empire Theatre...
- Check our rates on three nights or longer for best deals. We have a minimum of 2 nights on bookings, however we cater for one nighters occasionally through the week - when you contact us.
- This year, we have changed the way we provide firewood in the cooler weather. Each chalet is now equipped with a reverse cycle air conditioning system as well as a slow combustion fireplace. Firewood is no longer included in the standard rates. It comes as an add-on that can be ordered when you make your booking or purchased at the office during your stay.
- We are here to assist you if you need help with your booking. Don't hesitate to give us a call or send us an email!
We hope to see you soon,
Kind regards,
Greg and Sylvie

"We had a wonderful 3 night stay in Bushland cabin, which is the 2BR one, although just the 2 of us. The second BR has 2 bunks and would be ideal for a small family. We found the cabin to be spacious, comfortable and extremely well maintained. The view from the veranda is fabulous and there was quite a variety of friendly birds that kept us company during happy hour (definitely worth bringing your favourite bottle of red) We really couldn't fault this place and will definitely return one day."
We stayed three nights at these delightful cabins just 15 minutes outside of Toowoomba. They are well equipped with everything you could possibly need. They even have a wooden heater in the cottage!! They have everything you could possibly need, even a BBQ. There is even a DVD library, if you get tired of all the wildlife and nature walks...needless to say, we didn't even turn the TV on!! Well worth a visit and a stay.
"We love this place! We came for our anniversary in May and enjoyed the log fire and cosy Bushland chalet, with jaw dropping views and as much tranquillity as you will ever need. We just got back from visit #2 and did not want to leave. The wildlife and peaceful setting are perfect to sit on the veranda all day and read a book or you can head out and be in Toowoomba in 15 minutes. Preston Peak winery is a setting not to be missed too. Sylvie and Greg are friendly and helpful and the standard of the accommodation is pristine. You wont be disappointed !!
