About this property

Candle Bark Cottage - Karma Kinglake

Nestled on the top of the Great Dividing Range in the heart of Kinglake, Karma is a great place to unwind and relax. Set on an acre of garden with vegie patch and resident chooks, Karma Kinglake consists of 5 self contained units.

Our gorgeous, cosy, hexagonal shaped 2 Bedroom Nests located in garden setting are ideal for families, couples or friends who want the convenience of having their own space to relax and unwind.

Kinglake is home to the amazing Kinglake National Park. Just an hour from Melbourne airport and CBD close to wineries of the Yarra Valley and fabulous walking and cycling trails.

Karma Kinglake was built after the disastrous fires on Black Saturday 2009. Wherever possible recycled materials and reclaimed timbers from properties in the local area have been used. We endeavour to be as self sustaining as possible, we have rain water tanks, our own orchard and vegie patch and we treat all our waste water.

Guests are welcome to enjoy the entire property (which is just over 3 acres), we have specific rooms available for guests who require disability access and we welcome well behaved dogs.

Make yourself at home, ask us about our local native birds (feed them from your deck area) or grab some eggs from our resident chickens "the Lay Girls". We live onsite and are here if you need us and happy to help you explore.

Ideal for groups or that special occasion.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
