Serenity!

Stayed in the log cabin, very comfortable, amazing location, a wildlife paradise with kangaroos, wombats and emu. Next to the zoo, so we had the bonus of seeing the giraffes in the morning! So peaceful and relaxing, surrounded by lovely walking tracks. Great spot to visit the local wineries also. Fully fitted kitchen, they supply coffee,and tea, just bring your food, or lots of local eateries nearby. Wood is also supplied for the fire and there is also a bbq area. Hope to return one day!

Our kiddies loved the mudbrick house, said it was the highlight of their holiday! Loved the chickens, kangaroos being so close to us and hearing the monkeys and dingos at the zoo in the morning. Great distance from the zoo, and very family friendly. Cant wait to go back!!

We had a 2 night stay in the Stone Cottage which was just perfect. It was very relaxing and so cozy with the wood fire. Very spacious accommodation in a truly beautiful setting overlooking the Grampians mountain range. Aidan the proprietor was very welcoming and hospitable, and ensured our stay was comfortable. We certainly look forward to returning.
