Stunning! Beautiful location and beautiful accommodation. We stayed in the Silverwood Lodge and it was stunning. Very clean. It is even equipped with a sauna. The view of the national park is like no other. I browsed around looking at the different cabins and I definitely think Silverwood Lodge has one of the best views. Rob who is the on-site Manager was amazing too. Very friendly and accommodating. I also recommend booking your accommodation directly through Ravensbourne Escape than through a third party such as AirBnB as it will be cheaper for you. We stayed in a cooler month so got to enjoy putting on the fireplace. I only have positive things to say about this location and this venue.

We stayed tow nights with our two children. We took a full house but we probably could have stayed in just the top half and still been comfortable. The extra space was very welcome tho and everyone has enjoyed the clean spaces with wonderful views. It’s about 40mins from Toowoomba but we didn’t mind the drive, the venue is totally worth the trip.

Stayed at Ravensbourne Escape in the Tranquility chalet with my wife and loved it. For those that want to get away from the city for a bit and get back to nature Ravensbourne is perfect. The chalet was modern, well appointed and spacious with a nice queen bed, big en-suite, spa and wrap around deck and great views. The wood fire is great for those winter nights and Rob was always accommodating when called. Bring your own food as there’s not much around other than a few places in Hamilton or you’d need to venture further into Crows Nest or Toowoomba. Has the full kitchen and Webber bbq so easy to do a good breakfast or steak in the evening. Unfortunately the escape isn't catered But I can recommend the charcuterie board and wine as it was Big! Plus a nice Shiraz from Maclaren Vale always goes down nicely. For those that want to get out and explore, Ravensbourne national park is 5 minutes down the road with short or long walks. We did a combination or tracks down to Burra Creek and back and took about 2.5 hrs all up. All in all a great place to just escape and unwind and if you don’t leave the lodge and just want to curl up with a book, unwind in the spa and take in the views by a log fire, you’ll be happy. Highly recommend…

On-site is a restaurant which we found to be A1 with Ed the host being extremely hospitable. Take away pizzas from their pizza oven, are also available. Entrance to the property, which is one of approx 10 homes, is via a coded security gate and coded house key, which is forwarded to you a day or two prior to arrival.
