Liz and Matthew were wonderful administrators of their quaint cottage. The 5 bedrooms were ideal for us 4 ladies but 2 of the bedrooms could only be accessed via another bedroom or ensuite. The house was warm on our arrival and surrounds were gorgeous although a little far from Healesville. Amenities and breakfast were more than adequate (enough to feed 2 families) . The local wildlife welcomed us and reminded us what a gorgeous part of the world is the Yarra Valley.
White Rose cottage is a lovely retreat set in beautiful gardens surrounded by bush. The house was clean and well appointed. Liz and Matthew were friendly and helpful. The breakfast supplies were magnificent.

Thanks for coming Faye, we hope to see you again some time in the future.
It was pleasure having you and your basketball girls!
Thanks for leaving the house so perfect :)
Nestled in the beautiful hills that surround Healesville, White Cottage is a combination of old world charm and all the mod cons you would need. The grounds are gorgeous, and the mountainous vista stunning. There are also two adorable miniature donkeys and gorgeous goats a short stroll away. We absolutely loved our stay. Liz is a wonderful and generous host and we would not hesitate to have another stay at White Cottage.

Thanks for coming Niki, it was lovely to meet you and your family, your Mum is a beautiful lady, I loved to see Mums and daughters having a few special days together. We would love to see you back at Home Farm in the future :)
We loved our stay. The property and cottage are amazing, with the manicured grounds and animals to feed and a very gracious host, who supplied a full breakfast for everyday of our stay and even took us on a buggy ride around the grounds, that our son enjoyed greatly. Our 2 yer old son also loved feeding the animals. I can't recommend enough. We'll be back!
You know when you walk into a place and you feel instantly comfortable? The house feels like home, somewhere that you have been before, it wraps you in a cocoon of soothing warmth and peacefulness.....
Liz, Matt and Ed have thought of everything and we felt so welcome, part of the family and it was so tranquil, just heaven sitting watching nature all around.
Thanks for looking after us, see you again for sure
We had a lovely stay in Chum Creek. Property is private with large hedges, so even though there are 2 other houses on the property you would never know.

The cottage was much more than we expected and the linen, toiletries and wonderful breakfast provisions - no plastic wrapped bread, butter/jam sachets - were outstanding. It was super clean, with lots of extras that made our stay even better. The grounds surrounding the cottage were amazing, with lots of wonderful flowers and trees, as well as the alpacas and other animals. A most enjoyable time was had by all. We'll be back!

If you're looking for a lovely, old world cottage surrounded by natural bushland then go no further than White Rose Cottage. A short drive to Healesville and surrounding attractions. Delicious breakfast ingredients provided for a full cook up - eggs from the farm chooks! Would definitely visit again, thanks for a really enjoyable stay.

Great property for a Yarra Valley stay
Lovely house. Generous breakfast provisions and well equipped kitchen. Groups of adults may want to be aware that bed configuration is 2 doubles and then 2 adjoining rooms with bunk beds at the front and twin beds behind. we were only 6 so it was fine for our purposes. short drive into healesville. plenty of wildlife around.
