We had a lovely stay at this beautiful property. The house is well-appointed, and the grounds are equally charming. We especially enjoyed the separate cottage, which was also beautifully presented. However, the real standout was the absolutely spectacular views of the Yarra Valley — simply breathtaking. Communication with the host was clear and prompt throughout. Highly recommended!

My bestie and I were very blessed to have stayed here for 4 nights as a mini escape from our high-stress jobs. Absolutely perfect cottage, easy to find in Olinda and central to everything. The cottage is only a short drive from Sassafras, Belgrave, etc. so we were able to go out each day and have mini day trips and then return in the evening.The cottage itself was beautiful, we loved the fireplace and the spa and the views out the windows; we had everything we needed. The balcony was a highlight for me with kookaburras. Pia Tim also made us a beautiful hamper for our stay. Communication was excellent instructions about staying were very clear and easy to understand and follow.Nothing to fault no complaints. We would love to return I'll be recommending this place to all of my friends for future getaways.Thank you Pia Tim for having us! Kind regards from LJ & Jayden x

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this charming autumn retreat! The location is perfect for anyone looking to enjoy the beauty of fall, with an exceptional array of vibrant autumn colors everywhere you look. The walk around the area was serene and peaceful, with the crisp air and gorgeous weather making every step feel like a mini adventure.The living room was a true highlight, with its unique hexagon glass window offering stunning views of the surrounding nature. It was such a peaceful spot to relax, sip a warm drink, and simply take it all in. We also loved the presence of the parrots – their vibrant colors and cheerful chatter added such a lively touch to the atmosphere.

We all had a lovely time. The property really is amazing. All was good apart from we were surprised there wasn't a BBQ (we didn't check before we took our meat up there with us!) and the bedrooms upstairs were very hot (it was 38' while we were there) and the beds in the bunkbed room were not comfortable - but all the others were great. Coffee machine wasn't working and we couldn't get the steam oven to work either, but the kitchen was great apart from that. We had a really good time - the property exceeded expectations

The property was so well appointed, very clean and we were provided with breakfas items which was a nice surprise. The unit was in a very pretty location, nice and quiet. We'd definitely stay again, thank you Tim

The place was lovely and it felt very much like home! Christine and her husband had left us some yummy snacks and we had everything we needed to make breakfast and coffee in the mornings! Would definitely recommend for a nice little getaway! X

Lovely cottage. Everything you need and delicious breakfast provisions. Beautiful area and bird watching is amazing from the deck. Well worth the visit
