Impressive secluded property with lots of room, a very well equipped kitchen, including all the basic pantry items, and a bottle of bubbles on arrival.
The primary bedroom suite is very modern and spacious (perhaps not for those who value their personal privacy as it’s all completely open plan). I loved all the storage in the walk-in robe. The two other bedrooms had pull-out beds but were still very comfortable. The weather wasn’t great during our stay but there was plenty of air con and access to the pool (we didn’t end up using the pool as we were out every day and evenings) should the temperatures rise. There was a lot of the owners personal artworks on display, inside and out, which served as a constant reminder we were in someone’s personal space, rather than your generic holiday let.
The host, Denise, was very kind, offering helpful advice on local eateries and tips for getting the best use from the property.
The local countryside is stunning and just bursting with wildlife, rabbits, kangaroos, kookaburras, magpies, and we even saw the odd fox.
The location of the property made it a handy base for visiting the many wineries in the Yarra, if Chardonnay and/or Pinot Noir are your drop of choice, you’re in luck.
