Ecodownunder Bowral

The biggest bedding mistake people make? Buying polyester. It can feel soft on the shelf, but synthetics trap heat and moisture, so you wake up hot and clammy, and they shed microplastics with every wash.

Natural fibres like wool, cotton and linen breathe, last for years, and simply feel better to sleep in.

That is the whole reason Eco Down Under exists.

Australian wool, breathable and naturally temperature regulating, so you stay warm without overheating. One of the easiest ways to sleep better through a Highlands winter.

There is not much better than a slow weekend in the Highlands.

If you are out in Bowral this weekend, come in for a wander. Have a look at the wool quilts and the organic cotton, ask us anything, and stay as long as you like.

What does your ideal slow weekend up here look like?

Lovely to be written up in the Southern Highland News this week, on how we got here and why Bowral feels like the right place to land after nearly thirty years.

You will find our team at 357 B**g B**g Street, on the main street between Wilson & Dorset and Few and Far.

A new retail store with deep family roots opens in Bowral.

We could not find bedding made the way we thought it should be, so nearly thirty years ago we started making it ourselves.

Meet Russell and Beverley.

They started Ecodownunder in 1997 for one reason: they could not buy a pure cotton sheet that was not full of synthetics, so they made their own. Nearly thirty years later that is still the whole idea, a bed made from natural fibre and nothing else.

Same two people, same idea, now here in the Highlands.

Ecodownunder Bowral - now open 7 days. Come and visit us when you're next in the village! We'd love to say hello!

A little look at how it all came together.

Before the doors opened there were weeks of it: unpacking, folding, stacking, and finding the right home for every quilt and every set of sheets. Slow work, and the good kind.

It all looks a lot calmer now. The shelves are full and the door is open.

We have opened in Bowral.

Twenty nine years on, Ecodownunder has its newest shop here in the Highlands, on B**g B**g Street. If you know us from Avalon, Mona Vale or Freshwater, it is the same family and the same idea: organic cotton sheets, Australian wool quilts, linen and towels, natural fibre and nothing else.

If you are local, welcome. We are glad to finally be your neighbours.
