Ascot is on the Darling Downs. Its southern boundary follows Kings Creek, a tributary of the Condamine River. The area is heavily developed for agriculture except for elevated areas in the east.[3]

Mount Sibley is a neighbourhood in the north-west of the locality (Шаблон:Coord), presumably taking its name from the nearby mountain of the same name in neighbouring East Greenmount.[4] The mountain was named after James Sibley, a pastoralist and publican, who leased the Clifton pastoral run in the early 1840s.[5]
