Ironbark - private garden, gas fireplace, SPA

JaneRating, 5 stars2 months ago
The Observatory Cottages at the top of Mt Dandenong has been the place to stay in the ranges for years, and with good reason! We last visited Ironbark cottage 20 years ago and we loved it this time as we did two decades ago. It’s extremely cosy and private and you can easily spend a whole weekend at the cottage without leaving! The spa and gas log fire place are highlights, adding to the warm and cozy vibe. Penny leaves great provisions for a cooked breakfast for two mornings and there’s a kitchen if you feel like staying in. She has great communication and is very responsive if you need her for anything. A beautiful choice for a weekend of R&R. Highly recommended.

Pigeon Bank Country Cottage

sueRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We thoroughly enjoyed our two day stay at Pigeon Bark farm in the cottage. The place was cosy and specious with comfy beds and couch, spotlessly clean with old world charm. The kitchen had all we needed and was well stocked, the coffee and breakfast provisions and snacks were good. It was completely calm and peaceful but lovely to see the animals around, especially the beautiful friendly peacocks who can be hand fed. Jacqui was an excellent host and living nearby was an excellent help with anything we needed and quickly responded to our needs. She even went the second mile by offering us drop off and pick up from our very close wedding venue. A lovely friendly person.

Matilda Cottage Macedon Ranges quiet rural retreat

MelRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Matilda’s Cottage was a perfect little spot that catered two nights before our wedding and our wedding night. While we are local, I highly reccomend utilising this cosy quiet accommodation. You are not far from gisborne vineyards and town centre and a short drive up the freeway into the Macedon ranges. Take a short drive continuing up benson rd you’ll grab a nice view of the valley. Thanks for having us!

Port Melbourne Victorian Cottage

KristyRating, 5 stars4 days ago
My family stayed here for 4 nights & it was a lovely home! the beds were the BEST we have had in an Airbnb! Jo communicated so well & check in & out went smoothly. We had everything we needed to cook & enjoy the space. We were so close to the city but no noice & the heating was so good & increased the cosiness of the cottage. Will definitely be returning! thank you Jo

Fig Leaf Cottage

DeanneRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
The Fig Leaf Cottage was perfect! Location was great, not far to the wineries around the region. The cottage was gorgeous 😍, felt homely with lovely throw rugs & the heater was great as it was a cold weekend. Bed was very comfortable. And we were so appreciative of all the added snacks that were left for our stay, so very thoughtful. Highly recommend going.

Such a cute little place. Very thoughtful with their complimentary home made sourdough bread, fresh local butter, jam & milk. Was the perfect icing on the cake for us! Fireplace, wine & cheese platter nestled away in a peaceful quite are. No kitchen but we saw they had a sandwich press so we had beautiful toasties with their sourdough for dinner, amazing! Their bakery at the back was amazing, best croissant we have tried, get there first thing tho! Oh also, the knitted face clothes with a bar of soap was really cute too ! Thank you both 😊
