About the host
Hosted by Stewart & Tessa Lockhart
Having travelled the world as backpackers for a number of years, we finally chose this beautiful mountain top to put down our roots. We love meeting people from different countries and cultures, speaking different languages and getting out there exploring on our bikes or on foot.
Why they chose this property
We have lived at Lyrebird Cottages since 1997 and the cottages have been open since 2003.
We moved here from central Melbourne to live surrounded by nature but we are only just over an hour to the centre of Melbourne.
The cottages are architect designed to use solar passive design and be light filled. They are spacious and cosy for longer stays as well as short mid-week and weekend getaways from the city.

What makes this property unique
