Formerly Turmeric Gardens - Duckpond Cottage. Fully self-contained and peaceful for a relaxing getaway.
Turmeric Cottage has an eco friendly design, constructed with the sun, wind, rain and the seasons in mind which minimises the need for power, heating, and cooling. Many sustainable materials have also been incorporated in the construction. Please note that the Cottage has a composting toilet. Full kitchen facilities allow you to self-cater for all meals. Coffee and tea are provided. There is a common area in which you can enjoy the fireplace, barbecue or perhaps cook your own pizzas in the wood fired pizza oven (additional $25 for bag of firewood). There are many native animals that call Palmwoods Eco Escape home. We also have happy chickens.
We have a second Cottage on the property - Piccabean Cottage and a two-bedroom Garden Unit for those who might be travelling with friends or family. 
Guests are welcome to explore much of the15 acre property. Surfaces are uneven and may be slippery. Walking shoes are encouraged. 

There is lots to see and do in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. In Palmwoods there are several local eateries including the popular Rick's Garage, repurposed as an American 50's diner, with big burgers and a whiskey bar upstairs. On a Thursday night and weekend lunch you'll often see a surprising array of classic cars and bikes. It is only a short drive to Montville, Maleny and the famous Eumundi Markets. Palmwoods Eco Escape is 3.8km from Palmwoods Railway Station and 24km from Sunshine Coast airport. A local bus terminates 1km away, with two daily services, Monday to Friday. Other bus routes service the bus stop near the railway station.
