Tweed Hinterland Eco-Cabin

Watch the sun set from your deck while staying in this self contained Eco Cabin only 7 min drive from Murwillumbah. Spacious and modern with parking, wifi and appliances. You are surrounded by lush green open space only a 30 min scenic drive from beautiful beaches and the Gold Coast Airport.
This private wood cabin with attached eco-friendly outdoor bathroom, stunning natural fish pond pool, bbq area and firepit allows you to relax and unwind in the hinterlands of the beautiful tweed region.

The space
The ‘Eco Cabin’ is situated on 2 acres adjacent to the main family home, (yet still very separate) and offers everything you need for a country getaway. Ideal for couples, or individuals.

The ‘Eco Cabin’ includes a super comfy queen size bed, with a window opening to stunning views of the mountains. The adjoining outdoor bathroom with composting toilet, allows you to clense in the fresh air and soak up the mountain vista under a rainfall shower.

A complimentary hamper welcomes you for your first breakfast, upon arrival - including bread, butter, jam, fruit and granola- so you can wake up and enjoy your morning on the deck and listen to the soothing sounds of the gentle waterfall.

In winter we provide an oil heater which heats the cabin to a very toasty temp. The bed has an electric blanket and we provide you with two hot water bottles.
We also have a beautiful fire area and provide firewood for your use.

The ‘Eco Cabin’ includes a fridge, kettle, toaster and coffee machine (with a variety of tea’s and coffees for your convenience) and you can also make use of the undercover bbq area. There's cutlery, plates, glassware, saucepans and salad bowl, as well as olive oil, balsamic, salt and pepper provided for basic cooking.
At night, feel free to toast marshmallows at our flintstones firepit area under the night sky.

Our stunning natural pool or ‘fish pond’ is a shared pool for you to enjoy. It is pure rain water, and an eco system in itself. The fish keep the pool clean and will even come to say hello and wait for a pat. It is 2.2m deep at the far end and you can soak in the warmth of the sun sitting by the waterfall or relax in the water on the sun warmed volcanic rocks. We also provide pool towels for your convenience.

Our super cute bunnies and guinea pigs are also always up for cuddles!

The ‘Eco Cabin’ is separate to the main house and you have the privacy of that area. The family house is in proximity to the cabin. As this is our family home, please note that the pool and garden are shared spaces.

Spot of Paradise
Lush green mini-paradise with chemical free swimming pond. Sounds of frogs, then bats and owls hunting at night. It is delightful. We chose it to be close to the famous rail bike trail.

Not suitable for disabilities
The property was clean and comfortable. The outdoor shower was very cold in winter. No mention in advertisement of having to go uphill over rocks and then steps to the cabin. Photos in ad dont really show the uphill climb and rocks to walk up. Photos make it look flat even ground. Being a person who struggles to walk at the best of times it was really difficult getting up and into the cabin. We paid for 2 nights but left after 1 night.

Gorgeous location and beautiful hosts
We stayed 3 nights in this wonderful little eco-cabin, and it was the perfect base to explore the surrounding area, which has so many interesting things to see and places to explore. This property is lovingly connected to nature with the minimalist but super cosy accomodation, the natural pool, and the beautiful green gardens. We had everything we needed to be very comfortable. Even though the cabin is close to the house it felt very private and quiet. A wonderful break with truly lovely and friendly hosts! Thank you!

Lovely cabin, beautiful area
Lovely eco cabin set in the beautiful Northern Rivers. The swim-friendly fishpond was great for cooling off, and the outdoor shower was delightful. Tanja and Dave were super friendly, and had lots of great local recommendations. While the cabin was a touch closer to the main property than we expected, we had ample privacy during our stay. Would certainly recommend this place!

Welcoming and friendly
Loved our stay with David and Tanja. They are warm, welcoming and hospitable. To us it felt like we were welcomed into their home. A stunning Shiraz by the firepit under the stars sealed a great stay. It was great to interact with their family, cuddle their dogs (we miss ours), feed the rabbits and watch the chickens. Three resident kookaburras provided early morning visual entertainment. A great spot to use as a base for exploring this stunning part of the world.

A little unique slice of heaven
Wow! I loved this place. Spectacular setting with every comfort you could require. The hosts (who are quite close by but this didn’t bother me at all) were so friendly, enthusiastic and weren’t in your face at all. I felt immediately at home and loved my stay. And the pond!!! Extraordinary! I did have a swim and dangled my feet in whilst reading and stared at it for many hours. Highly recommend.

Very relaxing
Such a great stay, just what we needed. Easy to find and close to restaurants and things to do. The pool was amazing and will be perfect in summer. Such a great feature to look at and hear the running water at night. The rabbits were sooo cute. The cabin was great and very private - bed was super comfy! Amazing way to disconnect (wifi and reception was great though). Will definitely be returning :)

The property is a little slice of paradise with roots to nature. It is so awesome and amazing. The fishpond is one of the best natural looking features I’ve ever seen and the property abounds with natures gifts. The hosts are so welcoming and friendly and giving with their abundant knowledge of the area. Highly recommend for couples!
