Perfect getaway
From the minute we arrived it was instant relaxation. The house was clean and we were welcomed with a bottle of wine and box of chocolates. Surroundings were stunning. Couldn’t have found a better place to stay in Healesville !

Incredible property in a beautiful location
It is a beautiful location to stay and the property was incredibly clean and was the perfect home away from home. It was so well set up and organised - we were able to cook instead of getting take away every evening. Daniel was a fantastic host and we would 100% stay here again!

Wonderful getaway for exploring or retreat
An idyllic bushland cottage, with kookaburras and wallabies for company. From the beginning of our booking, communication was clear, and the description and photos of the property were promising - and lived up to their promises. Daniel, our host, was professional, friendly, helpful, and welcomed us by leaving a lovely local wine and some chocolates upon our arrival. The cottage is beautifully tasteful; spacious, clean, newly renovated and very well equipped, with full sized cooking facilities (allowing us to prepare our own meals), fridge and plenty of linen and tea/coffee facilities. The games and entertainment for families was generous, the location absolutely stunning and an ideal getaway for our family. A great spot from which to venture to the snow and explore the surrounding areas, but it would equally be ideal for a quiet retreat in the bush, away from busyness. We would be thrilled to return and visit again. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Peaceful Cottage
A lovely place, home from home. Everything we needed to make our stay comfortable was made available from a well stocked log fire, heated bathroom flooring, electric blankets, tea, coffee, kitchen condiments and many tv channels to watch movies, plus board games for us all. Would reccommend to friends and certainly hope to visit again.
