Unfortunately not happy with the overall stay.
The place is very nice however you are greeted by a German Sheppard that was friendly but was annoying in the sense that it just hung around to play stick. It also says in the description that it is a peaceful retreat to sit back and listen to the wildlife. However we came back from dinner and sat by the pond to watch the sun go down to the sounds of the owners and their dog barking as they swam in their pool geeing the dog up with excitement and all we heard was barking none stop. We were told there was a play room with access to it with a key on our keyring but there was only one key and it was for our door only. We had also contacted the owner twice on the day of booking with our stay being the next day and we were not responded to however the next morning he contacted us three times with total disregard to our previous emails.

Friends 21st
The property was just beautiful with great views. The one bedroom apartment had everything you needed. The only thing missing was a power point in the bathroom. Check in was made really easy all the instructions especially when we arrived in the dark. Highly recommend this accommodation.

Hidden Scenic Beauty
I rented this apartment to surprise my partner for her birthday and it couldn't of been a better experience! The decor and cleanliness of Apartment 1 is outstanding! The furniture makes you feel like you are in a dream and the bedding is as good as the world's strongest sleeping pill! Will be staying again in the future.

Lovely Property
We had a great stay. It wasn't clear on the listing if it was just a room or a cottage. The description was listed under cabin. We wanted our own space. My husband contacted the owner and she said the accommodation was 50m from the main house, so we were expecting a private cabin. On arrival we found the accommodation was four joined studio rooms with a games room between two of them. The rooms are lovely and spotless and have a kitchenette. We had a great stay made even more special by the company of Lana the German Shepard who was eager to show us around the property and joined us for a game of tennis.

Beautiful Getaway in the Dandenongs
Gorgeous room situated on a beautiful property and opening directly onto a sweet little lake. Was welcomed by a beautiful dog named Lana, who accompanied me on a walk of the property and kept me company - 10/10 for Lana. The room was beautiful, modern and clean with everything you need. Self check in was very easy, with directions and photos emailed out to assist. Beautiful gardens and walks around the propery. Would definately stay again.

Short getaway
We arrived on a Saturday evening on a very rainy day but made the most of our time by ordering in and relaxing in front of the fire. It was incredible waking up to the most beautiful views all around the property.

Weekend away with Steph
The check in process was breeze. The place was clean and smelt of rich mahogany. The blankets added a level of sophistication that wreaked of Boris. Couldn’t work out the heater though it’s either broken or you need to provide some instructions. Lovely place would stay again.
