This is the adorable, enchanting, cozy cottage of your romantic dreams. A super convenient 50ish minute drive from metro Melbourne and nestled in a perfect location near Sassafras for exploring and enjoying the walks, gardens, shopping strips, delicious eateries and other sights of the Mt Dandenong area.
The area is renowned for it's luscious dense forest, and the view from the cottage bedroom out into that landscape is absolutely stunning. It feels like you're suspended in the forest. You could lie there all morning or afternoon, with a coffee or a wine, and feel entirely content. The view from the bathroom, which has a humungous spa bath, is equally stunning. You couldn't imagine a better place to relax and defrag, or to celebrate a special anniversary or birthday, as we did, or just to make a quick refreshing mini-break from the chaos of life. The space is truly magical.
Open fire, comfy well-appointed living area and excellent kitchen with all the basic cooking utensils are all bonuses. It's a great space to enjoy luscious meals, though be sure to bring all of the ingredient basics you need. We celebrated a 30th birthday at the cottage, and it was exactly what we needed. Highly recommended.
