Each morn you'll wake up to exquisite forest birdsong but be assured you'll be doing better than glamping! This was a cosy self-contained home with ducted heating, a Goldilocks-perfect bed for the parents and nice fold-out sofa bed for our teen in the lounge room. Well equipped kitchen and the bathroom was just the right size - no bumped elbows territory there. The backyard looks onto the Mt Dandenong trail. Rabbits abound in this area. While it was pretty rainy during our stay or soggy when the sun came out (we're experiencing yet another La Nina weather pattern), there was a fire pit that we'd definitely use on our next visit. Comfy outdoor chairs & tables and a barbecue for the carnivores, too. It was about 4km to walk to the Montrose shops - cute little village - but for a decent array of shopping, go to Kilsyth - about the same distance. Zippy drive if you prefer not to walk. Kerrie's airbnb seems like it's miles and miles from Melb, but it's actually only about 35km so you can be in Melb CBD within the hour, if you don't hit peak hour.
