Toowong Villas

Toowong Villas is self-contained accommodation at 9 Ascog Terrace in Toowong, about 4km west of the Brisbane CBD, and it takes dogs in specific pet-friendly units on request. For a city-fringe base with a dog, it is one of the few options this close to the CBD, and the walk-everywhere location does a lot of the work.

Dogs at Toowong Villas

Pets are allowed strictly on request and subject to availability of the designated pet-friendly apartments, so contact the property directly before booking rather than assuming any unit qualifies. A fee of $25 per pet per night applies. There is no published size limit, but confirm yours at booking. The pet-friendly units get practical touches for dog owners: vinyl flooring and private enclosed courtyards, so muddy paws and a contained outdoor space are part of the setup. Quiet hours run 9pm to 8am, which matters if your dog is vocal in the evenings.

The place

Accommodation ranges from studio rooms to one, two and three-bedroom self-contained villas and apartments, all with full kitchens and laundry facilities, set in a leafy, tropical-style complex with two lagoon-style outdoor pools and a BBQ area. Reviews point to spacious rooms, helpful staff and good value. One practical catch: the property is accessed via stairs with no elevator, which matters with an older or larger dog and your luggage.

Getting there and parking

Ascog Terrace is walking distance from Toowong Village shopping centre and Toowong train station, so getting into the CBD without the car is easy. On-site parking is available for around $10 per vehicle per night and should be arranged at booking. If you are driving in from the west, thewestern freeway feeds straight into Toowong.

Close by with the dogs

Toowong Memorial Park and the Brisbane River walk are both close for daily walks, and for a proper run the Anzac Park Fenced Dog Park and Perrin Park Dog Recreation Area are the two dedicated off-lead options nearby. Nowhere Espresso Pizzeria and Wine Bar is the local eat-and-drink option, and several Toowong Village cafes have outdoor seating where dogs are welcome.
