About this property

Crowned No.1 in Australia from 55,000 Holiday Homes

LOCATED AT 215 MAIN ROAD, HEPBURN SPRINGS

Winner of countless awards, accolades and media coverage. Clifftop has been crowned Australia’s No.1 from 55,000 holiday homes, Australia’s No.1 Interior & Design, Australia’s No.1 People’s Choice, Australia’s No.1 Holiday Accommodation, Australia’s No.1 Romantic Getaway….and the list goes on. Live a life more extraordinary in these family-friendly luxury retreats for up to 4 guests in Hepburn Springs.

We like to think of Clifftop as the villas Apple would have built…amazing to look at in a way that entices you to caress every curve and surface. That’s fitting homage to the talented artisans who designed and styled these unique escapes. This distinctive property blends industrial chic with luxury comforts in its forest surroundings.

Clifftop is a luxurious getaway boasting spectacular landscapes…where daybeds hang suspended in thin air and nature has dug a deep ravine that climbs up sheer cliffside and unfolds onto scenic bushland with abundant birdlife and natural fauna to help you unwind, relax and rejuvenate.

IMPORTANT CONDITION. When you book for 2 guests you get one king bed in one bedroom and only 2 people may stay. The additional bedroom is locked and cannot be accessed unless you pay for 3-4 guests.

Beautiful

Immaculate, stylist, warm inviting property that we absolutely loved. Coffee machine had incorrect pods so unfortunately only worked on one occasion. No dish cloth to wipe surfaces, a little thing but would have been nice.
Response from VrboOwner on 6 September 2023
Hi Karon. Thanks so much for you kind review. The pods are the correct ones and work fine as long as you pull the handle down to lock the machine and lift it to clear the old pod after use...per the instruction manual. There are 2 chux in the draw under the sink for wiping the bench...plus 2 tea towels in the cutlery draw. Dave

Clifftop at Hepburn- Evoke

My husband and I stayed at Clifftop at Hepburn-Evoke for our honeymoon. It is such a stunning venue with a fantastic view and was extremely comfortable for our 4 night stay. There were lots of little touches like some lovely chocolates, fresh bread, muesli, coffee, tea etc. that await you, as well as some lovely soaps in the bathroom. The spa bath is fantastic and is comfortable for a taller person. It is the perfect place to just sit back and relax, though there is plenty to do in Hepburn Springs or nearby Daylesford if you wish. We could not have been happier with our stay and hope to get back there again. Thank you Mani and Dave.

A truly memorable, luxurious and romantic trip to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary

There are some things that defy description, and Evoke has many details that can only be discovered once you’re a guest. Our expectations of this retreat were completely surpassed; from the scale of the cliff side outlook, to the architectural details and design, the dream-inducing bed that provided ultimate comfort, the coziness of the daybed, the mood lighting, the double rain shower, the delicate lace patterned bathroom tiles, and the overall colour palette. Our sense of relaxation was next level, and time seemed to stand still while we sipped champagne in the outdoor swing while the sun went down... what a way to celebrate ten years of marriage and to connect on a soul level that will carry us into the next decade of life and love. Thank you David and Mani for dreaming up, and creating, Evoke for us to enjoy. Love Em and Jarrah

Great Stay over the long weekend

Loved our stay, beautiful house and everything was very easy to use and super relaxing. Maybe a little more firewood over the two nights would have been our only thing to add. Can't wait to come back again

Hi Liz. Thank you for staying with us. We always leave extra firewood on top of the wood bin for guests and remind them know its there if they call to ask for more wood. Its difficult for us to know when folks need something if they don't ask though. Regards, Dave & Mani

Awesome Accommodation in Hepburn

This property lived up to all our expectations and then some. Luxurious accommodation- so well kitted out. Spectacular views. If you stay here - eat in - kitchen is fabulous. We bought up beautiful fresh produce from Prahran Markets and utilized all the facilities this property offers. Fireplace - sensational views awesome sound system comfy couches and window seats. Bathrooms both have deep tubs and the pinball machine was fun. Highly recommend

Really nice villa which was bigger than we expected

Really beautiful villa (evoke) in a very convenient location with stunning views. Unlike most hotel and apartment photos, the villa is exactly as described and depicted in the photos. The pinball machine was a lot of fun too. Am definitely looking forward to seeing what the other villas are like.

Absolutely amazing! Will be back soon!

Loved our stay at evoke. All kitchen equipment and cutlery is well supplied and clean. All appliances and features work well. Interior is beautifully decorated and created a great getaway. However the villa did get quite warm so air cons were constantly on and blinds were kept down which took away the amazing view. All in all, we had a great stay and will be back!

A very special place

We stayed for 4 nights in this beautiful house. The views where amazing. Due to the heat we got up very early every day to go hiking and spot for wildlife. Amazing! The hot afternoons we spent in the Spa and at the flippermachine. We loved it so much we never went out for dinner, we just didn’t want to leave. We will be back.

The most beautiful accommodation I've ever stayed in

Everything was so beautiful, clean, user friendly, and the view was spectacular! The only fault I can pick out is that the mirror and lighting in the bathroom are not that good for doing makeup. Everything else is just perfect! I would very highly recommend this accommodation to anyone!
