À propos de cet hébergement
Magical Hideaway in the Hills of Emerald
Tucked away in the beautiful Dandenong Ranges, this magical hideaway blends warmth, charm, and imagination. With whimsical touches, hidden play spaces, and nature all around, it’s a cosy retreat for families, friends, and dreamers alike — the perfect place to relax, reconnect, and rediscover a sense of wonder.
This unique home has been lovingly designed to spark curiosity and offer relaxation in equal measure. Every corner tells a story — from the vintage wardrobe transformed into a cosy reading nook, to the secret playroom hidden behind a door that once was a walk-in robe. It’s a home where children (and the young at heart) can discover their own little “worlds within a world.”
Enjoy open-plan living with picture windows looking out over tranquil gardens, an inviting fireplace for cooler evenings, and plenty of space for shared meals and conversations.
You’ll feel a sense of calm and escape — yet the property is only a few minutes’ drive from Emerald township and popular attractions such as the Puffing Billy Railway and Emerald Lake Park.

À propos de l’hôte
Hôte : Tingting Cui
I’m a bit of a daydreamer — someone who loves quiet moments, meaningful details, and spaces that spark imagination.
Voici pourquoi l’hôte a choisi cet hébergement
The home is close to many scenic spots, charming villages, and family-friendly attractions — making this a perfect base for exploring the Dandenong Ranges and beyond.
Voici ce qui rend cet hébergement unique
Step inside, and you’ll discover a home where imagination meets comfort — inspired by the wonder of childhood dreams, secret corners, and a sense of adventure.
Filled with thoughtful details and surrounded by nature, the home invites you to slow down, unwind, and perhaps rediscover that spark of imagination we all once had.
And when you ride the nearby Puffing Billy steam train, as the steam drifts through the forest and the carriages wind their way, you might just feel like you’re on your way to a hidden Hogwarts of your own — and this house waiting at the end of the line could be it.
