About this property

Healesville Cottage - just a short walk to the centre of town

Welcome to our lovely historic cottage, lovingly restored and updated with modern amenities. Just around the corner from Four Pillars Distillery, and 500 metres from Healesville main street, guests have easy access to numerous cafes, breweries, distilleries, cellar doors, restaurants and shops. The cottage features original polished floorboards, 3 large air conditioned bedrooms, one with ensuite, plus a deluxe country style kitchen, and a cosy living room with wood fired heater and air conditioning.

The cottage features free WiFi internet, large 4K smart TV, plus a sound bar providing surround sound. The bathrooms feature individually controlled gas hot water systems, as does the kitchen, which features a deluxe cooker with 3 separate ovens, as well as a fridge/freezer, microwave, and Nespresso machine. The kitchen will be stocked with cereals, bread, fruit, juice and milk - and a starting supply of firewood will be provided in the colder months. We can even have the fire going for you when you arrive if you request. In the yard you will find a selection of herbs in the garden beds, as well as apple, lemon, and lime trees. Guests are welcome to help themselves to anything that is ready to eat.

We live nearby, and are very happy to provide recommendations of things to do, and can even offer private driven tours of the valley.

Please note that there are security cameras both outside the front door, and on the verandah.

Great cottage in a terrific location

Healsville is an excellent location if you want to explore the Yarra Valley. This cute cottage is in walking distance to the town (which has lots of bars & restaurants), but also has everything you need if you want to self cater. It's very clean & comfortable. The only quirk is the hot water, which takes a bit of practice. Really enjoyed our stay & would recommend it highly.

Best birthday

Very happy with the whole process of booking, correspondence, arriving and entry to the lovely place we called home for 3 nights. Very clean, neat and well stocked with everything you could want to help us enjoy our break. Had a great time at the wineries, good food when we ate out and a wonderful place to rest and relax in. We celebrated my birthday, my son’s partner’s birthday and the fact we could spend some days together. We all would highly recommend staying here!

Perfect getaway

A weekend reunion for old friends in Healesville was centred around this lovely cottage. Walking distance from everything, spacious, clean and beautifully appointed. Communication with the owner Mike was fantastic, and he assisted with queries about the local area and options before our arrival. We're planning a return already!
