Great property in a fantastic location

We had a great stay at Pine Hill which was perfect for our group of two couples attending a wedding nearby. We were very impressed by the host's attention to detail and the garden was amazing.

One Night Away

This was a great place to stay with absolutely everything you could wish for to hand. Thank you Joanne, it was the perfect place to get ready for my daughter's wedding and a great place to come back to after the event. Marvellous:)

A Lovely Place to Stay!

We were very impressed with how clean and spacious the property is. Jo, our host has thought of everything that you could need and she even went as far to leave lovely wine, chocolates and other goodies. She was fantastic to communicate with. The property is even nicer than the photos. Highly recommend!

Wonderful Property and Outstanding Host!

We booked the property for a post wedding stay in 'The Hills'. The property didn't disappoint. Cosy inside and magic gardens outside. Jo, the host did a wonderful job and went above and beyond. Highly recommended!

Amazing stay

Jo has spent so much time and brain power to ensure her home is 5 star l. From the easy way she communicates, to the wonderfully presented home. With no stone unturned she has gone above and beyond with this peace of paradise. She provides room for everyone. Would we stay with her again? Absolutely. Such a hidden gem, worth every cent.

Wonderful accommodation

Joanne was fantastic. The accommodation was clean and comfortable. We didn’t want for anything. She supplied everything you could image. Beautiful property, we will be back. Next time we’ll just take our clothing. Everything else was supplied. Treats were a lovely addition. So much thought has gone into this place. Highly recommend it!

The place was spotless with EVERYTHING anyone could possibly need! It was like going back into my childhood. Old but still fabulous! I’ve stayed in hundreds of places with my job and I have to say that although they were newer, they lacked character and the cosy feel this old retro place has! Great host. I will return 🤗

Perfect city escape

We found this little gem of a property when looking for a central location to explore the neighbouring towns and Mount Dandenong Ranges. The place was spacious and perfectly located - only a short drive to some beautiful locations such as Emerald Lake Park, Silvan Reservoir, Olinda Tea House, Sassafrass, 1000 Steps, Sky High Mount Dandenong... the list is endless! We CANNOT SPEAK HIGHLY ENOUGH of our host Joanne, who went far and above our expectations in terms of communication and going well out of her way to ensure our stay would be a memorable one. There are just not enough words to express our gratitude for all that she provided, all off her own accord. Joanna and her property will be top of our list when we next plan a mini escape to the region. Impressions are lasting!!

Wonderful stay in Olinda!

Enjoyed a great weekend away in Olinda staying at Pine Hill. The host Joanne was a pleasure to deal with. We mentioned that we were visiting to celebrate a birthday and were pleasantly surprised when we arrived and was greeted with some birthday balloons, a bottle of wine and some treats. With two large bedrooms and large living areas, Pine Hill was more than enough space for our family of 3, and well located to all of the tourist sites we wanted to visit (a very short drive to Olinda).

Amazing property and the bestest host ☺️

What a hidden gem this cottage was! Generous sized bedrooms with 2 large separate living areas, we felt there was plenty of room even for 6 adults. Spacious modern bathroom with heated towel rack! The kitchen is super well equipped, not to mention the variety of coffee, tea and many yummy treats we were spoilt with! We particularly loved the undercover outdoor seating area where we enjoyed our morning tea, overlooking the beautiful gardens. The house was immaculately clean with so much attention to detail throughout. We were fascinated by the lovely, unique decorations every corner we turned. The photos advertised simply don’t do this house justice. Jo was the kindest and most generous host I’ve ever come across with. She went above and beyond to cater the need of my elderly parents. Thank you Jo for pampering us with beautiful fresh flowers, wines, chocolates..and with flexible check in / check out times! We appreciate the heart and soul you put into this holiday home. It deserves a 6-star through and through 💖

Nice place to stay

Stayed here for a night with my partner and her parents. Had a wedding nearby and this property was a great place to stay. It's surrounded by heaps of trees. The property manager was super nice and even helped us book taxis. The property is a little old but with modern furniture and beds. Loved it as a little weekend getaway.

Wedding Weekend Getaway

A very clean, comfortable and well equipped property. Pretty grounds and lovely bird-life landing the balcony. Many yummy snacks were provided too! Communication was terrific and the host was very obliging regarding a slightly earlier entry to the property to enable us to get to a function on time.

Property lovely but unsuitable for our family.

Reasonably close to town this home has two generous bedrooms and plenty of space to relax. Ducted heating keeps visitors toasty warm. It is a classic home from the 50s or 60s, perfectly comfortable. A great base to explore the Dandenongs from. The host is extremely helpful and did everything possible to assist us when our visit did not go as planned. The home is not suitable for a wheelchair inside or out and has a tight driveway, unsuitable for wheelchair trailers. In wet weather the garden on 2.5 acres is unsuitable for wheelchair exploration. Not possible either to safely secure pet dogs outside on site. A misunderstanding led us to book this property. If you do not have a wheelchair or dogs, the property would be without issue and the owner extremely kind and helpful.
