About this property

Peaceful Bush Retreat in renovated lodge

Unwind at our lodge in beautiful St Andrews. Just an hours drive from Melbourne, our peaceful property has everything to help you relax. We are perfectly placed for visiting the Yarra Valley wineries with the closest one a short walk from your front door. Visiting the iconic St Andrews market on Saturday is also a must. Nestled in a private corner of our family property, the lodge is completely independent. Your only visitors will be our resident kangaroos, wombats and beautiful native birds.

The lodge is newly renovated and rebuilt and has a lovely bright, airy feel.
The main living area has a comfy couch (which can convert to a sofa bed), split system heating/cooling, flat screen tv, wifi, dining area and a fully fitted kitchen.
The bedrooms have luxury bed linen, electric blankets for cooler nights and blackout blinds. The main bedroom has a queen bed, whilst the second has a king bed. This can also be configured as two king singles, perfect for children or friends. The sofa bed in the living area is also available but we recommend only for children.
Outside the deck overlooks the front paddock and dam to the side and has a table and chairs, where you can sit and watch the kangaroos in the evening.
The rear courtyard has a dining table, chairs and a bbq area.

Access to the lodge is via the driveway to the property and is situated at the bottom of the drive, with the main family home at the top, ensuring complete privacy. Parking is under the carport with level access to the front door.

We love to have children to stay but please be aware there are three dams on the property and children must be accompanied by parents at all times.

Quiet & Cosy perfection
My husband and another couple friend have just stayed here and it’s perfect, it all has been thought of from the softest fresh sheets and pillows to the little breakfast left for us to enjoy. Such a little treat and a wonderful home away from home. Views were stunning! Can’t wait to come back and enjoy! Hosts are very quick to reply and very accomodating! Xx

Perfect mini get away
Cute little place to get away from the hustle and bustle. Due to the incline of the property, it's not suitable for young children. Perfect for a couple or two just to hang out and relax.
