A perfect location and property for us to use while getting ready for our daughter's wedding. It had a beautiful, homely feel that provided a picture-perfect backdrop for the pre wedding photos. So many quality extras from all the tea varieties to a really good iron were provided.

Maybe enter driveway from top down would be better. Couldn’t connect to Wifi. Tv remote didn’t work downstairs. Gas log heater down stairs in lounge room couldn’t light it. Wood heater in kitchen/dining area was Smokey. Face washer with bath towel would be great per person. Mattress in bedroom next to main bathroom not great. Hand towel for laundry toilet would be good. Towels were good. Nice bathroom products. Lots of mirrors and hair dryers. Mattress in main bedroom down stairs off lounge room very good. Nice linen. Lots of fire wood. Lots of crockery and glass ware. Clean and tidy. Tea and coffee selection was great. (Some Uht milk in fridge would be a nice touch). Outdoor cushions and throws were nice. Beautiful house and pool. Pool very clean.

Enjoyed exploring Healesville and the Yarra Valley from this accom

We had a lovely time with our extended family but there were quite a few things we all commented on. The crockery and glasses are on a shelf over 180cm high. A stool is supplied but there is no way most of the family could reach them. There are 2 average bathrooms and a toilet off the laundry. The house is very old with many gaps to let in spiders and insects. One bedroom was full of bugs which freaked out my nieces. There was plenty of insect spray provided though. The view from downstairs has all been blocked out because the bushes have not been trimmed enough. It’s such a pity. The whole garden is very over grown and makes the house quite dark with the big kitchen table not a very welcoming space. We liked the lounge room but it’s just a little gas fire in there. Anyway we were grateful for somewhere to stay so that we could explore the region. Healesville and the Yarra Valley is an amazing region and offers so many sophisticated hospitality venues and activities. We look forward to spending more time in The Valley.
