Cottage, Bed & Breakfast

Lakeside Cottage 4 ½ star - a truly indulgent experience.
First impression - WOW! The view - STUNNING!
The lake glistens in the sun, the fountain playfully rippling the surface, the dainty white gazebo perched on the edge with weeping willows swaying. The majestic white bridge spans the lake with the island in the distance and the Dandenong's rising into blue sky.
The Cottage features a queen size bed framed with lace curtains, separate spa room, sun filled conservatory with tranquil garden and mountain views.
The secluded single cottage on 5 acres of gardens offers guests absolute privacy, the setting so romantic Lakeside Cottage is a popular spot for honeymooners. Enjoy full breakfast provisions before a late checkout. Lakeside Cottage, the premier choice for business or leisure for country escapes, offering the ultimate in self contained B&B accommodation.
Relax with in-room massages, bubbly spa and dinner at renowned restaurants nearby. Return for a nightcap in the gazebo stunningly silhouetted in fairy lights or a gas ember fire for cooler nights.
Unique experiences offered are picnics on the island or under the willows, gardens, lakeside or bush walks. Photo opportunities abundant.
Slow down and enjoy delightful pampering and luxury offered by truly superb accommodation with picturesque views. Expect to see hares, ducks, kookaburras, king parrots, and even peacocks; a special feature of our peaceful lifestyle.
A perfect base to explore 3 main tourist regions: Yarra Valley, Dandenong's and Phillip Island with Melbourne CBD only 30 minutes away.

I am in love with this place. The gardens are so beautiful even in winter and I love the cosy feel of the cottage. Thank you, Kaye, for encouraging romance in Dave and making this weekend a truly special part of my birthday. XXX Danii.

Locality

Only a few minutes drive through the scenic Mt Dandenong Ranges to Sassafras, Olinda, Kalorama, Sherbrook and Puffing Billy at Belgrave. Enjoy brunch while browsing the antique, jewellery and lace shops and finish with dinner at one of the many superb restaurants along the way home.

The next day, head east to the Healesville Sanctuary to cuddle koalas and lunch at one of the many wineries, visit the water lilly gardens, antique shops, farmers markets or galleries. In season, buy fresh fruit from the roadside stands or even pick your own at selected growers.

But wait, there's more. So much more, you will be planning your next trip before you even get home.
