About this property

Pool, Games & fun - Family Retreat!


Location Highlights
You’re perched at the gateway between the serene Dandenong Ranges and the charming village of Olinda—making this retreat both peaceful and perfectly located.

Just a 5-minute drive to the Puffing Billy Railway (Belgrave Station), where you and your guests can enjoy a nostalgic steam train journey through towering forests and fern gullies.

Olinda is a short 10-minute drive, offering boutique shops, lush gardens (including the famed Rhododendron Gardens), cafés, and weekend markets.

SkyHigh Mount Dandenong Lookout, with panoramic vistas over the Yarra Valley and Melbourne skyline, is only a 15-minute drive away—ideal for sunrise breakfasts or sunset drinks.

Countless walking trails, from peaceful forest walks to more invigorating hikes, are accessible within minutes.

Yet, despite the tranquil location, you’re only about 60 minutes from Melbourne CBD—ideal for combining countryside charm with occasional city experiences.

Added Touches & Guest Perks

High‑speed Wi‑Fi throughout—great for streaming movies or staying connected (if work calls arise).

Smart TV with access to streaming platforms.

A modest entryway workstation for any remote work needs.

A welcome basket stocked with local produce: freshly roasted coffee beans from a nearby roaster, artisan jams, sweet biscuits, and a map with recommended local walks, cafés, and experiences.

Essential supplies: cooking basics (salt, pepper, oil), dishwashing items, and bathroom staples—everything you need for convenience and comfort.

Optional mid‑stay refresh service is available upon request for extended stays.
