Good to know
With two comfortable queen bedrooms, two bathrooms, and inviting spaces to enjoy together, the home is ideal for couples, families, or friends seeking comfort, tranquillity, and time in nature. Bright, airy interiors create an immediate sense of calm. At the same time, the generous living spaces provide plenty of room to unwind after exploring the villages, gardens, and forest trails of the Dandenong Ranges. Settle into the comfortable living area with a book, enjoy time with friends or admire the surrounding greenery. Every space has been thoughtfully arranged to create a welcoming retreat where guests can relax and enjoy an unhurried stay. The fully equipped kitchen makes meal prep easy, with quality cookware, modern appliances, generous bench space, a dishwasher, a microwave, a refrigerator, and a coffee machine. Share your creations around the elegant dining table or enjoy an alfresco meal surrounded by trees and fresh mountain air. The separate games room offers pool and table tennis, along with seating and tables, creating a wonderful space for friendly competitions, games and relaxed afternoons together. The spacious balcony is ideal for morning coffee, long lunches and peaceful evenings listening to the surrounding trees and local birdlife. An outdoor firepit provides a lovely place to gather on cooler evenings. Guests must bring their own firewood, use the firepit responsibly and observe all weather conditions, fire restrictions and local regulations. Guests have private access to the two-bedroom home and designated outdoor areas throughout their stay. Driveway parking is available for up to five cars. Please be aware that the driveway is steep and narrow, so guests should enter and exit slowly and carefully.
