Russell Outback Eco lodge is a beautifully designed space where you can kick back and enjoy all that nature has to offer, amazing night skies, sit by the fire and listen to the kiwis in the bush, relax while the children play in the tree houses and give yourself a digital detox, all the while leaving barely more than a foot print on the planet.
Russell Outback Eco Retreat is off grid with solar power, tank water and a compostable toilet.

The space
Two cabins, beautifully linked by a covered fully equipped kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen is covered and has a pull down blind to keep out the weather ( as shown in the photo). The bathroom consists of a shower, basin and composting toilet. The bedrooms are fully insulated and lined with double glazing.

Fully off grid, and featuring many reclaimed and recycled materials, our Retreat has character and charm.

Huge deck with built in outdoor fireplace, overlooking a private pond with wonderful rural bush views.

The space is designed for families with a maximum of 4 adults staying comfortably.

We have recently completed a beautiful outdoor pool. This is available to guests for a charge and at selected hours, please discuss this on arrival if you would like to use it.

Guest access
Explore our 10 acres of paradise, with native bush tracks, duck pond, flying fox and amazing treehouse playground.
