We stayed in the forest cottage and it was so cute and exactly what we needed for our little getaway, it was nestled up the back of the property which made it feel even more secluded. All the photos from the website are pretty accurate and I’m sad I didn’t really take any of my own as the grounds are stunning. The spa in that room was the selling point for us and it did not let us down, we spent a lot of our time in there just admiring the beauty of our surroundings. We were greeted by Jessica when we arrived who was so friendly and accommodating, we were lucky enough to receive some treats she’d freshly baked and they were so tasty. She showed us around and gave us a few good places to visit as well as just a good conversation before she left us to enjoy. We truly felt looked after

We loved the shops in Olinda and Sassafras just down the road. Easy walking, sitting in the sun at Dudley’s having a wine was relaxing.The trees and the beautiful Dandenong botanical gardens were amazing. It is like a little haven just out of Melbourne, all the people working in shops are so friendly it is just such an awesome little town.
Because it is so incredible it is getting really busy on weekends.

The townships of Sassafras and Olinda offer many quirky and artistic shopping and dining experiences. Alternatively you can have a typical aussie bush experience. The many massive gardens in the area are a must. The Alfred Nicholas Gardens are great any time and the Botanic gardens rhododendrens are sensational in season. The area along the Tourist road and out to Kallista is beautiful.
I highly recommend a visit to this area.

The place was picked by the photos and they were out if date . The spa wasn't the same as the picture. And my wife is a invalid so the spa was very difficult to use for her as the height was very dangerous. It clearly isn't the photo which was advertised. Also there was no area for standing outside if it rained no cover at all. Also very noisy being down stairs can hear constant noises. The breakfast was good and the place is warm. It's clean but it's less then the pictures are discibing .

At first they seemed nice, but when we walked into the back in a dark (what seemed to be a garage or something, messy paper work everywhere) we just brushed it off and we regret not looking at the place before paying the remaining money.
When she showed us around she pointed out all the faulty appliances that we shouldn't be using, she asked my husband if he was a handyman and how she gets some of her guest to help her 'fix' the place up. Even if my husband is a handyman we are on our anniversary getaway, we came there to relax not work.
The handle of the sliding door (which is basically your main entrance) is broken and anyone can break in literally with a ruler, no security at all.
When we saw the bathroom she told us that she took 3 light bulbs out and only left us with 1, when we asked why she replied "because guest leave the lights on when they go out".
It was so dusty and dirty, when we rocked up the towels were on the oil heater cause they weren't dried and ready for us, the towel rack broke while she was showing us around. The bed sheets didn't look clean nor did they smell clean, we saw some bed bugs on the bed and this put us off straight away.
We booked the Deluxe Suite with Spa Bath, there was no balcony or mountain view for us. I believe that as guest we deserve to have a clean, comfortable and secure environment to stay in especially when we are paying $320 a night.
We didn't end up staying at any of the 2 nights that we booked, We were so disappointed and outraged so we just went back home.
We did call and try to compromise to get half our money back but they didn't return any of our calls or messages
Absolutely the worst way to end our anniversary getaway!!!!

Couldn't visit gardens or national parks - most closed due to damage from wild weather - however, normally these are lovely to visit.
The villages along the Mt Dandenong Tourist Road can get quite crowded on weekends, so if you can visit during the week, it will be more peaceful.
there are plenty of food options around, including some good 'country pubs'.
Excellent location only 150m walk from the Mt Dandenong Hotel and Kellys Bistro and other shops. Well stocked breakfast items and true double spa bath. Plenty of heating options for cold nights. Small balcony with table and chairs providing views over the city lights. Nice rustic garden setting with some little quirky features. Very friendly and helpful hosts. Off street parking provided.
Everything was just perfect, from everything you could think of for breakfast to the robes and slippers in the wardrobe, we could not have asked for more. It was within walking distance to an Irish pub (Kelly's)and the shops in Olinda.
We enjoyed our stay immensely. We will definitely be back and maybe try one of the other rooms next time.
Was pleasantly surprised that the cottage was situated amongst the rainforest with a little creek at the back of the property. Also the cottage's proximity to Olinda was an incredible 4 min walk away from town. The accommodation was superb and made for a very relaxing weekend. The heating was left on for us which was a lovely touch.
The room was interesting, building looks very old but told it is only 40 years old. Lovely lady met us and helped with luggage. We stayed in Victorian Room, has comfy bed, nice bathroom. The Wifi didn't work in the room, was ok outside but drops out when inside. Price included cereals, milk, bread for toast etc. Juices.
The ambience when we opened the door to the cottage was incredible. The personal touches by hosts Karen and Tamara added to the experience. A truly beautiful place and just what we needed. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a beautiful country escape, to relax and unwind in nature. We will definitely be back ❤️
The studio is compact and very well appointed - all you need is there! Very comfortable and as near as you can get to the centre of Olinda. Near great walks and the botanical gardens. Jasna, the host, was available when needed and very caring. Just what we needed, so we extended our stay.
Great quiet 2 bedroom cottage with large full-equipped kitchen. Underfloor heating was a boon, as was the large amount of breakfast supplies. Very clean and comfortable. Walkable path through it's scrambled bush garden.
Location was excellent. Setting was very nice. Cottage was charming, but with a stylish, modern twist. We made use of the cast iron fire place, which created a cosy atmosphere. Had our little dog with us. We loved it.
Beautiful setting, loved waking up to see nothing but trees and a beautiful view. The place was cosy and super clean. Very close to olinda shops and loved the breakfast voucher that was included with the stay.🩷
Location, walking to Olinda Tea House, Gardens… Hot tub and Jacuzzi was really nice giving good time for kids.. brekkie deal was a bonus.
Owner is lovely and very helpful.
Breakfast adequate. Plenty of milk, tea, coffee, bottled water and fruit juice. Lovely cosy cottage beautifully decorated. Comfortable couches and great spa bath. Thank you
Betty was warm and helpful, the place was spacious, luxurious and clean. Amazing views from the balcony and so much food and drink provided! Would definitely go back!
Breakfast provided was great, more than enough for our 2 night stay. The cottage was warm and inviting and the hot tub and fireplace gave it a cosy and romantic feel.
