Cottage


A stay at Bluegum Ridge is like a trip into the past, but with all of today's comforts. Set on 20 acres Bluegum Ridge is now home to two spacious and comfortable cottages enveloped by mountain ranges and the Delatite Valley.
There are wide decks, hammocks swinging under the 100 year old blue gums and an outdoor hot spa for star-gazing while sipping sparkling wine (which to our delight was complmentary on arrival). These all indicate the thought and attention to detail Barb and John Hayes have put into this property. Nature has provided views to snow capped Mount Buller and all guests have to do is arrive and kick back.
Other options include nothing more taxing than giving the goats a scratch, roaming the property, or a 4WD tour of the area can be arranged.
There's also horse riding, fishing, golf, wine tasting, bush walking and hot air ballooning. In winter its only a 15 minute drive to the entrance of Mount Buller for skiing. The area is exquisite but then Bluegum Ridge is just as attractive.

One of our guests wrote in our visitors book that would like to purchase our property,when we are ready to sell.
The Age Travel Guide stayed anonamously, they were so impressed, they chose to do an editorial on our property, which you will find on the front page of our web site.
