You can see why this is called the Treehouse, when you wake up in the morning with the sun streaming through the windows and all you can see from your bed are the treetops and all you can hear are the birds singing. The space feels much larger than the photos suggest and there is a small balcony/deck and garden for sitting outside. Staying here is very much like being a guest in someones home, We didnt meet Bridget or her dog Hannah but her creative vision is very much a character of the whole house. We were only looking for a good base to explore Melbourne but it would be easy to spend more time at Bridget's place.

One minute walk away at 110 Charles street is the brilliant local cafe The Milk Bar, where the owners Robert and Gerome are knowledgable about everything Melbourne. The immediate neighbourhood is quiet and residential but just down the street is a fantastic stretch of Asian restaurants and shops on Victoria street ( we ate at the Vietnamese Bay) and its a short walk to hipster Collingwood. We found all day free parking two streets away on Park street and there is good public transport nearby.

A unique house to relax and be inspired in.
