About this property
Yarra Valley Vineyard Cottage - premier location with spectacular views.
Beautiful, bright and lovely cottage set amongst a stunning Yarra Valley vineyard. Within walking distance to premier wineries, food hubs and concerts, such as Coldstream Hills, Yarra Yering, Medhurst and Oakridge, and an 8 minute drive to Coombe and Healesville.
The cottage has a gorgeous open living kitchen, dining and sitting room. There is a new bathroom with separate bath and shower, two toilets, generous bedrooms with two queen size beds and luxury linen.
The cottage also has a sunroom with option to request for sofa double bed to be set up with luxury linen for guests (extra $70 per person per night).
*** Sofa bed area remains a sunroom unless 5 guests are selected at the time of booking, in which case the sofa bed will automatically be added. For bookings of 1- 4 people, the sofa bed will only be set up upon request.
Opening on to back deck, edged with vegetable, herb and flower garden, there is also a laundry with washing machine and dryer. Outdoor bath and shower overlooking the vineyard and hills beyond provide relaxing 'en plein air' bathing.
Back deck and front verandah catch the morning and afternoon sun respectively for coffee or a cold ale, g&t, or glass of wine.
Inspired by musicians, writers, teachers, designers, and farmers who have all lived in the cottage over four generations, the cottage is private, and surrounded by vines and rolling pastures. The views are sensational and the vibe is relaxing. The owners currently live on the property so are always just a phone call away.
This beautiful getaway is only one hour from Melbourne. Lilydale airport is only a 10 minute drive away for those who would like airport access.
Other add-ons we can arrange to enhance your stay: Private wine tastings with local winemakers for serious wine drinkers and buyers Flowers to order Private driver Babysitter
House rules: No pets...this is a working cattle, sheep and vineyard property. No large functions.
We want to make your stay as comfortable and as relaxed as possible. In light of current health requirements we wish to reassure you that, before each stay, the cottage is given a deep clean by professional cleaners, and all linen is professionally laundered. The health and safety of our guests are paramount.

Spectacular location with super short drives to terrific wineries (and about 12 minutes to Healsville). Lovely modern property, two great bedrooms, solid wi-fi and a wonderful open kitchen. Jenny was great to deal with and we really appreciated the welcome bread/eggs. Well worth your time in the Yarra Valley.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home was lovely and well-appointed in a very quiet and private location. Close to all the delights of the Yarra Valley. Our Host Jenny was welcoming and helpful from booking through to check-out. Highly recommend this Cottage for a peaceful and relaxing escape.
Our stay at Jennys place was fabulous. Jenny was very accommodating to our needs and was lovely to chat to. The house was beautiful, very comfortable, clean and tidy. We captured so many beautiful photos in the yard. Would stay here again.
This was the prettiest place I have ever stayed in. Right on the vineyards with a large back and front garden and cows and horses nearby. The house itself was very cosy and comforting and had everything we needed and more. Jenny was a great host with great communication.
I couldn't recommend this stay more. The kitchen amenities were great and modern, we loved all the puzzles and games and the bathroom was a great size and we appreciated the shampoo, conditioner etc. provided.
Only think I would note is that you may need a sleeping mask as the sun and moon can be very bright through the blinds!
Absolutely loved our stay.
We were lucky enough to book this for a few nights before returning to our busy work schedules in January. This farm house is ideal for a family getaway and absolutely stunning. It is extremely well-appointed with gorgeous decor, linen, a full kitchen and has everything we needed for the weekend. The host Jenny was welcoming with her communication, great to engage with and very responsive to our questions and requests including providing a cot and high chair. The location is ideal, on a working farm and vineyard and is an escape from the fast paced city. It was easy to get to surrounding cellar doors and vineyards. I highly recommend staying here. We will be back!
We had a delightful stay. The cottage is so quaint and had all the items we needed for our stay. We had the extra room made up for a bed as there were 3 of us and it worked out so well as we all had our own room. The fire was lovely. Little bunnies hopping in the yard, the lemon tree with fresh lemons and the chocolate fudge left for us were highlights. The shampoo/conditioner/body wash were a really special extra treat. Instructions were spot on and Jenny was extremely easy to contact should we need anything. Would definitely recommend. 5 starts from us!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - a very quiet and private cottage, very close to some great wineries. Loved the open fire place too. We would definitely stay here again!
we really enjoyed our stay at this cottage. Beautiful location, very accomodating hosts and easy to get around the area. Very relaxing and enjoyable. We will be going back again in the future.
We enjoyed our stay at the cottage. From lovely touches like walking into a walk house, to beautiful bedding, it was very comfortable.
Great communication with the manager, and love the late check out!

THE place to stay in the heart of the Yarra Valley.
Thanks to Jenny & Chris for looking after us so well. A beautiful place we called home for a couple of nights. Stocked with everything you need from a bed and breakfast. Comfy beds, fully equipped kitchen, amazing shower, local product as treats and fresh flowers, makes for a must visit. We both had such a relaxing stay and can’t wait to get back there.
I absolutely loved the cottage and the picturesque views - it was a perfect escape. The attention to detail was exceptional, and everything from the furnishings to the finishes felt simple yet luxurious and so tastefully chosen. It’s clear how much care has gone into creating such a beautiful, welcoming space. Jenny was absolutely delightful to communicate with, and I wouldn’t hesitate to return. Thank you for such a wonderful stay!

Stunning Yarra location, with exquisitely tasted home.
Upon arrival at the cottage we were met by Jennifer, and a wonderful spread of local fare. The cottage was spacious, clean and every detail had a classy feel. Comfortable beds, and to be woken with views of vineyards and Angus cattle was magnificent. We would not hesitate to book again if we were in the Yarra valley.
This property is stunning. Every little detail has been accounted for. Jenny is an amazing host. One of the best long weekends we’ve ever had. Thanks for having us, we loved it.
Jenny’s little cottage was perfect for our family of four. Beautifully appointed, with everything we could ask for including the basket of local produce and the hidden outdoor shower (!) So gorgeous we are already planning our return trip... without the kids. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
This cottage is so lovely, and Jenny was the perfect host. (Even bringing us figs from her tree). We had such a great time, laughing, chatting and drinking wine in front of the open fire. In the morning, we woke up to the view of cows and vineyard. We will be back. We all wished we could move in! 😊
