The Hollies

  • Nestled on 2.5 acres of secluded gardens and trees, The Hollies is a peice of Hills History.

    Circa 1910, this 114 year old property oozes charm, warmth and character that is synonymous with a Home in the hills.

    you will feel the same sense of calm and peace that made us fall in love with The Hlovingly our family home when we purchased and lovingly restored the home in 2014. there are still minor external garden works happening in and around the 2 and a half acres of property however around the home is completed.

    Central to all the major gardens, walks, wedding venues and attractions nearby aswell as just a 5 min walk to Nathania Springs. There is a plethora of amazing things to
    Do nearby that will see you either enjoy a peaceful stay of cafes, gardens and nature walks or enjoy some local national iconic attractions such as Puffing Billy, The National Rhododendron Gardens, TreeTops Belgrave.

    This is our family home we have opened up to
    share our love of the home and area to others to enjoy as we have done so this past decade.
