We were lucky to find this place at the our last minute decision. We took our little dog along. The place is just perfect for 4 of us. It was cleaned and fresh. The host is great too. Thank you.

Camellia Cottage Getaway

I really enjoyed staying at Camellia Cottage. It was a very lovely environment, and close to beautiful places such as the Dandenong Ranges Botanic Garden. The outdoor seating area was relaxing and we loved the fairy lights alongside the nature theme of the cottage. The complimentary hamper was thoughtful and greatly appreciated. Some things we’d like to note is that the green towels gave off lint when used and it was hard to wash off, and the pink umbrella wires became crossed when used. We had an amazing trip and recommend this place for people seeking a pleasant getaway!
