About this property

Bluegums Retreat - (a haven for families and groups of friends)

For your added security, this property is only managed in Australia and we never request payments be made to overseas bank accounts.

Bluegums Retreat, set against a backdrop of native landscaping with countryside views and located a few minutes from the iconic Hepburn Bathhouse and Spa, is ideally positioned for your escape.

Offering a sandstone interior, and Bluestone exterior, with exposed timber and plush carpets, The House was built from an old bridge demolished in Ballarat.

Bluegums Retreat offers an idyllic setting for you and your family or friends. Close to Lavendula, Cricket Willow, and the Hepburn Springs Golf Course, there is something for everyone nearby.

Well-appointed, with one King-split and two Queen bedrooms, an open plan living area and large timber deck with BBQ, Bluegums Retreat has space to tuck yourself away for rest and relaxation. On arrival, you will find a welcoming hamper of local and organic treats to start your stay.

A full kitchen and large dining area offer room for entertaining before you enjoy a country sunset from the deck or veranda. Invite yourself to Bluegums and be spoilt by nature.

Bluegums Retreat is located in the idyllic spa capital of Victoria - Hepburn Springs. The retreat located only a few minutes walk from the recently renovated Hepburn Spa and the famous Hepburn Springs Golf Course is ideally positioned for that total rest and relaxation.



Bluegums Retreat Accommodation

The 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms well-appointed house is a wonderful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city and is lovely and peaceful with the sun rising and setting in full view of the main outlook from the house.

Fully refitted and refurnished over the last several months, Bluegums Retreat provides a stylish and comfortable environment to unwind and relax.

Lie in bed at night and gaze at the stars in the heavens above through the moon window over the master bed.

The grounds have been recently re-landscaped with water-friendly native planting sympathetic to the landscape. Lookout in the garden for Henry the 10ft Emu and, little Bertie the Kiwi.

About the host

Hosted by Geoffrey Gedge

Host profile image
For the last 12 years I have had a passion for delivering guests the best possible experience they can have when away from home. We all spend too much time working and don't want to waste our time or money when we want to get away from it all. Hopefully, you will feel that our properties in Hepburn Springs not only give you real value for money but also make your time away memorable.

Why they chose this property

Bluegums is quite unique in that it is built mainly from recycled materials. The main structure of the house is built from reclaimed bluestone and sandstone from an old bridge in Ballarat. The house has been refitted to be as eco-friendly as possible without compromising on luxury.
