About this property

Mystical View Cottage

Surrounded by half an acre of beautiful established gardens and set back from the road, Mystic View cottage truly is a tranquil place to unwind. The three bedroom cottage is perfect for couples, families or small groups wanting a peaceful base to explore the local area. Ideally located just 3km from Bright with the Wandi bike path and Morses Creek just across the road.
Inside you’ll find three comfortable bedrooms, open plan kitchen, dining & lounge with plenty of seating. A vintage book shelf holds books for adults and children, games and speakers for all your music needs. Snuggle up by the wood fire in winter with a glass of wine after a busy day in the great outdoors. Reverse cycle heating and cooling as well as ceiling fans provide year-round comfort.

Linen and towels supplied. All bedrooms have wall heaters and electric blankets.

Bedroom 1: King bed
Bed 2: Double bed, second TV
Bedroom 3: 3 x single beds (1 bunk)- safety barrier available
Bathroom: Separate shower and bath, toilet, heating
Laundry: Washing machine, second toilet

Children’s facilities:

Two porta cots (no cot linen provided), high chair, an assortment of toddler toys.

Our secure backyard has BBQ facilities, outdoor dining, mobile hammock and fire pit. During cooler months a natural spring gently flows along our northern boundary. Enjoy valley views from both decks whilst listening to the native birds. Bring your bike and jump on the Wandi bike path direct from our cottage door. Visit the Alpine park children’s playground with cricket pitch and Morses Creek just a few minutes’ walk, not to mention world class mountain biking, road cycling, skiing and hiking.
Dogs welcome by arrangement.

Wandiligong is a charming old gold mining town just a few minutes drive out of Bright. We are located directly on the Wandi bike path (3km to CBD), close to wineries, gourmet region and a great range of outdoor recreation not to mention being surrounded by national parks, cycle trails, ski resorts, horse riding and fantastic river recreation.

What to do in Bright/Wandiligong

The Wandi Pub is just 1.5km from our cottage - a must do! Visit Numerous cafes, vineyards, restaurants, breweries. Many Berry, Nut, Alpaca, Trout and Deer farms to visit. Museum and art galleries for the artists to take in. Ski, board, XC, fish, mountain & road bike, paraglide, glide, abseil, hang glide, climb, cave, take a joy flight or horse ride for those more adventurous. We highly recommended a day trip to the Red Stag Deer and Emu Farm and Mt Buffalo National Park during your stay.

Take in the views of our rivers, creeks and High Country trails direct from Mystic View Cottage.

Absolulutely delightful. Calming decor, fluffy towels and crisps sheets. Relax in the garden or play board games by the fire. Plenty to do any time of year. Was exactly what the family needed, including the dog!

Mystic magic

The house was perfect for our needs, with a fenced garden (including little fairies to find) and lots of space for kids to play. The proximity to the bike track and playground was a bonus. We enjoyed the house and surroundings.

Wonderfully relaxing

Great location in such a quiet, pretty village. Everything provided for a comfortable, relaxing stay and welcoming package much appreciated. Kids loved the darts, games, gardens and space to run around. Easy bike ride to town and interesting tracks to explore. Plenty of room for our family of 5, can't wait to return and snooze in the hammock again! Owner lovely to deal with and very helpful : )
Response from VrboOwner on 23 Mar 2020
Thank you for reviewing us Debbie. We hope you enjoyed your special birthday at Mystic View Cottage. We hope you also enjoyed our new outdoor setting too. We are very excited to offer it for a relaxed time in our garden. See you again soon. Carol

Perfect and comfortable

Our family of 3 adults stayed here while we explored Mt Buffalo National Park. Mystic View Cottage is a very comfortable house, surrounded by a beautiful garden. We particularly enjoyed sitting on the front and back verandahs, and eating dinner at the backyard table. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and the bathroom and bedrooms have all you need. So much to do in this lovely part of Victoria. Highly recommended.

Lovely stay.

Very well set up home, lovely wine and chocolates on arrival. This home is in the small town with neighbours on both sides so I was a little surprised as I imagined the property to be more rural, having never been to Wandiligong before.. That did not impact our stay but if you want total privacy you won't get it. The house has a lovely feel, the gardens are a real highlight they are beautiful. We were cosy with good heating. We would love to come again, thanks.

Christmas in Wandi

We had a lovely Christmas break in Wandi. The house suited our purposes, lots of room and the garden was lovely and a respite from the heat. Things got a bit unpredictable at the end with the fires but Carol was a great guide as to what to do.

Quiet oasis

Lovely gardens surrounding this tastefully decorated home. The fire pit was a real draw card with plenty of wood available. The house even had a couple of toboggans handy for our trip to Mt Hotham. A lovely walking /bike trail along the river across the road takes you to a local playground or opposite direction all the way to Bright. A very comfortable stay

Home away from home

Our experience of this region was enhanced by the stay at the property. It was cosy and warm, had things to do for the kids, was relaxing for the adults, and had the most beautiful and green leafy garden. We loved the privacy of the property- and its proximity to everything we wanted to do. The views of the hills with cloud covering the tops were breath-taking. Thank you for the opportunity to stay here - it will be in our memories for years to come.

Great place to stay.

Thanks so much Carol, we loved our 3 night stay here & we wished we could’ve stayed longer. You have the house so well stocked with everything we needed. We loved having the fire on the first night & the electric blankets! Our Bernese Mountain Dog loved the garden & the sheep in the neighbouring garden were fascinated by him. The house is in a great location with the walking track over the road. We would definitely stay here again.
