About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
King Parrot Retreat - Base of Buller
This cosy and modern four bedroom, two bathroom home boasts comfort and style and can accommodate up to 10 guests. Suitably named, we hope you will get to experience the King Parrots that like to visit the back decking area and surrounding trees. A lovely sight to see!
In Winter, head to the snow and spend a fun filled day skiing, snowboarding or tobogganing with the kids. Come home and hang up the wet weather gear in Drying Room Onsite. Go for a bush walk or simply keep cosy indoors, relaxing on the couch by the crackling of the wood fire reading a book or watching a movie. For that real country feel, take the kids and toast some marshmallows outside by the designated fire pit *conditions apply
All bedrooms have heating as well as a wood fire and split system in the main living area
In Summer, head out to one of the local swimming holes for a splash around, or up to Mt Buller for some mountain bike riding run. Mirimbah Park is only a couple of minutes away so pack a picnic, pack your bathers and a fishing rod and enjoy the relaxing setting right on the banks of the Delatite River.
Cook up a storm in the modern fully equipped kitchen, on sit on the deck while the BBQ sizzles away. Then gather together around the dinner table sharing the stories and making memories of the day’s events.
Suitable for a couple of families, King Parrot Retreat is really a home away from home. A great base to set off from to explore what the High Country Mountains, Rivers and Lakes have to offer. Or simply stay at home, relax & enjoy the natural peace and watch the sunsets from the verandah and stargaze into the clearest of night skies.
NB: King Parrot Retreat is located next door to Blackwood Chalet. The property layouts mirror image each other (besides a couple of small differences) so if you have a larger group booking (up to 20 guests) then booking both properties this is a great option.

We had a great time away with friends at the King Parrot Retreat. The property manager was responsive and helpful. The house could do with some minor amenity upgrades but overall a lovely home in tranquil surroundings and just a short drive to the base of Mt Buller.

Wonderful King Parrot Retreat
We (8 adults and 2 kids) stayed at this beautiful property for two nights.
The location is quiet and lovely; with the MMBL (Mt Buller Bus Line) approximately 10 minutes walk to the main road -very handy if you are going to the snow by bus)
The house is absolutely beautiful, spread across 3 levels.
The house is modern, spotlessly clean and well equipped; each bedroom has a wall panel heater that work perfectly and two modern, beautiful bathrooms.
* Note - if you can't find the big rubbish bins, they are probably at the end of the court :)
Everything we needed (and more) was catered for.
Thank you so much! We will be back :)

Home away from home.
Had a fantastic stay. The house was lovely and inviting and loved the fire. Perfect for after a day in the slopes to roast marshmallows and warm ourselves. Leith was great with sorting any issues we had. Which was only to empty the bins when they got full. The proximity to the mountain was great and if you’re going up with a large group I reccomend king parrot retreat.
