Cedar Country Retreat has a warm country feel, with all of the modern amenities. It has been recently renovated with a brand new bathroom and updated kitchen, but still retains its rustic charm.
Nestled in the heart of Halls Gap and only a short ten minute stroll to the famous "Coolas Ice-Creamery", this beautifully styled property offers you more than just accommodation, but a home away from home.
All of our guests receive a complementary bottle of local wine and chocolates, as well as the beautiful "VIVE" body products. We have two split systems on WIFI which we turn on prior to our guests arrival, ensuring the house is cosy and warm in the winter and cool in the summer. We also have a coonara wood fire heater ready to light on your arrival. Strictly no flame candles, however we do provide several remote control flameless candles for the romantics at heart.
The three beautifully appointed bedrooms are all located upstairs and can comfortably sleep six people. Each room has its own personality, with sweeping mountain views from every room. The master bedroom has a queen size bed with a romantic setting and a deck looking east across Mount Ida with the west window looking out towards the Pinnacle. Nothing better than waking up to the sunrise over the mountain. Bedroom two, which we've named "the Flying Scotsman" has more of a masculine feel, with a queen size bed and reading nook with chair for those relaxing winter days, simply enjoying the view to the mountains, or reading a good book. Bedroom three has two single beds, again looking across to Mount Ida. Also upstairs is a large bathroom with over-the-bath shower and toilet.
Downstairs, we have a new bathroom with beautiful French tub, large shower, toilet and a new front-loader washing machine. The bright downstairs kitchen has been fully revamped with new appliances, family size fridge, dishwasher and beautiful porcelain sink. This kitchen has everything you need, including a coffee machine and good selection of tea, coffee and hot chocolate.
From the kitchen into the dining and living room, comfy sofa and chairs, TV and stereo, with a selection of DVDs and CDs.
A large over-sized dining table easily accommodates a group of six for meal times, playing board games or cards. Several magazines, books and board games are also available to fill in the time when you're done with exploring and just want to spend some time indoors.
Lots of interesting things to look at throughout the house giving it its own quirky personality.
Outside, we have table and six chairs as well as a barbeque. Also available is a chiminea (only for use in the cooler months).
Please note: due to all of the bedrooms being upstairs and the outdoor deck also being upstairs, our property is not suitable for young children.
For your information, we have two security cameras installed at our property. One is located on the carport looking at the driveway, the other is located under the carport looking at the keysafe. These are for the security of our property only.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
