About this property

Warburton Hideaway | MTB and Family Friendly

Nestled amongst your very own private bush setting, enjoy relaxing on the wrap around veranda taking in all the natural beauty Warburton has to offer.

Warburton Hideaway is set on a generous 1660sqm block and is perfectly suited for mountain bike enthusiasts, featuring secure, dedicated bike storage for all your MTB needs. With easy access to the region’s renowned trails, it’s just a short ride into town for the shuttle or approximately 3km to trail access.

This beautiful, well-presented home features a gorgeous, light-filled open plan layout including a fully equipped kitchen, island breakfast bar, living and dining room, and laundry complete with its own washing machine.

The open plan living area flows out to a balcony offering complete tranquillity, surrounded by native bushland—the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee. There is also a covered deck overlooking the forest, ideal for relaxing after a ride or simply unwinding in a peaceful, weather-protected space. With plenty of room for the whole family, this fully fenced property is perfect for little ones to explore and discover nature right at your doorstep.

All three generous bedrooms include comfortable queen size beds, with a cot and ensuite off the master bedroom. A single trundle bed is also available upon request for an additional fee.

The beautiful combustion wood fire is perfect for cooler nights—sit back with a glass of your favourite wine and take in the ambience. An outdoor open fire pit is also a great addition for toasting marshmallows under the stars.

Only a short stroll to the Yarra River or a 3-minute drive to the main street, Warburton has so much to offer—whether it’s adventure, relaxation, or a romantic weekend away.

The house is rented as a whole, so you’ll have full access to all spaces.

Wood to be supplied by guests for the wood fire between Oct–May. The local hardware store sells both kindling and firewood.

The provisions were really mean. There was no firewood in the house or close by. Instead we had to go out under the house in the dark and carry firewood up in broken buckets. There was very little kindling and we had to buy our own the next day. There were no wine glasses and no provision to make proper coffee (no plunger or coffee machine). There was a dried out jar of unusable instant coffee. The bathroom has been incorporated into the laundry / utility room. There were no tissues or bin provided. Overall it was adequate but not in any way welcoming or generous. As we paid above the average price for a comfortable stay we didn't feel happy at all with the experience.

Hi Katy, Thank you for your honest review. We did deliver wine glasses to you at the property Within 2 hours after you messaged, along with a new jar of instant coffee and Extra kindling to the kindling - We simply can not provide endless amounts of wood. We do not list the property to have a plunger (nor do we have one available) or a coffee machine as available amenities, which is visible to you at the time of booking. The instant coffee can get firm in the jar, This is very normal for instant coffee - however we will look at other coffee options in the future. The property has 2 bathrooms a master bathroom and a main bathroom, yes the main bathroom is incorporated into the laundry - this is a common feature of houses of this era. We are sorry to hear you were not happy with the design of property. Also, We did respond to your guests blocking the toilet within 1 hour on a long weekend and had this issue resolved very quickly. We have never had any issues with these toilets previously. Perhaps this property was not ideal for your stay, We will always strive to improve our stays and we will take your review into account.

1. Ensuite bathroom tap fixtures were falling off making it even more difficult to navigate the hot and cold water which operate in different directions.2. ensuite sliding door seems to be off the railing and needs the be fixed3. Extra sliding bed could have been left out or at least indicated more clearly as we didnt see it until checking out (and we did indicate 7 on the booking)4. Kitchen drawers needs are stiff and could do with some adjustments
