For my fiancé birthday I organised a surprise weekend away which began with us getting in the car and travelling from Melbourne to Tyabb, arriving at the white gates of an incredible property.

After driving up the driveway lined with trees, past the horse dressage arena we reach a beautiful Victorian house, and the cottage a little further, sitting right next to a large pond with a large weeping willow tree.

After taking all the amazing scenery in, we were greeted by Colin who kindly showed us to the cottage and wished us a great weekend.

Photos won’t do this place justice, the cottage has large windows overlooking at pond and the rest of the estate. You automatically feel relaxed, and forget what life is like living in the city. The cottage is perfect for a couple’s getaway, and has everything you need for a relaxing weekend. The wineries are just a stone’s throw away and the main house (which we will definitely be staying in next time) is perfect for a group of couples to stay, with a large entertaining area next to an infinity pool.

Thankyou Jo and Colin for providing us an amazing place to stay. Looking forward to seeing you again soon. Carlie & Dave X
