Alum Rock Hideaway | Luxury off-grid cabin for two

Whether you're searching for a solo recharge or the time to reconnect, sometimes you just need to hide away.

Enjoy elevated simplicity and uninterrupted privacy in this luxury off-grid retreat just 30 minutes from Stanthorpe and all the Granite Belt has to offer.

Meticulously designed for two, Alum Rock Hideaway is a perfect getaway for couples or close friends. Whether you're enjoying the sunset or stars from the outdoor bathtub, a glass of wine by the fire or the panoramic views from bed, every aspect invites you to slow down and unwind.

Should you decide to stay in, boardgames, books and the latest copies of Galah magazine are on hand for your enjoyment. All you need to do is plan your menu and bring your supplies. Alongside the outdoor barbecue, your kitchen is equipped with a two-burner gas cooktop and essential cookware, serve ware and tea + coffee staples. Indulge in our curated selection of brand offerings including Leif, Koala Eco and locally handmade Washpool bath and body products.

Featuring air-conditioning, a ceiling fan and fly screens as well as indoor and outdoor fireplaces, the space has been designed to keep you comfortable throughout all seasons. Ironbark firewood is harvested from the property and provided for your convenience.

As the area surrounding the hideaway is shared with sheep and other wildlife, pets are unfortunately unable to join you.

We invite you to disconnect from your day to day responsibilities in order to reconnect with yourself and your chosen company.

Alum Rock is located 30 minutes north-west of Stanthorpe. Using Google Maps, you are able to search ‘Alum Rock Hideaway’ which will provide you with the access point to the property. From here, the hideaway is set close to Pike Creek, another 10 minute drive from the pinned location. Detailed access instructions will be provided to you prior to your arrival date. Please be advised, the drive from Goldfields Road out to the hideaway is a dirt road. We therefore suggest careful consideration of your vehicle type when booking your stay.

Please note, though infrequent, access can be compromised over the Pike Creek crossing in periods of heavy rainfall and subsequent flooding, in which cases 4WD or AWD vehicles will be required for access. Bookings may be subject to last minute rescheduling if your vehicle is not suitable for the conditions at the time of your stay. In such cases, we will correspond with you in the lead up to your stay to discuss your options.

Saving you from any formal check-in process, you’re invited to come and go from the hideaway at your leisure. As we are an operational property, we ask that any gates opened along your route are closed behind you.

Though fully off-grid and powered by solar, the hideaway does not sacrifice on comfort, providing filtered rainwater for drinking, strong water pressure and a flushing toilet. We do not currently offer WiFi however those with Telstra or Optus can expect a reasonable 4G/5G connection.

For those feeling adventurous, Pike Creek winds its way for over 6km north to south through the property, providing a picturesque walk with an abundance of wildlife. Fallow deer, wild goats, wild pigs, kangaroos and many types of wallaby frequent the remnant vegetation alongside the waters edge.

Your hosts Sofia & Ken moved to the country in 2020 and have been utilising their skills in building and design to offer unique stays here at Alum Rock, with the hideaway being their latest project.

Alum Rock is a 4th generation family-run property spanning 9000acres.

We look forward to sharing the beauty of Alum Rock and its picturesque landscape with you.
