Galoglen Cottage is the perfect place to rest, recuperate and relax. The views are magnificent and the sounds of the birds and animals relaxing. Such a wonderful place and friendly hosts.
We keep going back to this beautiful, peaceful, serene, clean accommodation for our Sister's getaway. We love everything about it we never want to leave. Jacquie & Richard are so hospitable & amazing.
Such an idyllic spot. The cottage was very thoughtfully prepared and all our needs catered for. We particularly loved sitting on the veranda watching the farm animals, and seeing the local wildlife. The cows bellowed their greetings as we arrived. We have named them all!
Perfect location albeit slightly remote ( which is what we expected)
Very good accommodation and liason /contact with Jaqui and Richard. If you want a 'country location , and are prepared for a short drive to amenities and eateries etc this is a perfect setting. Thanks Jaqui and Richard
The little cottage was delightful, warm and comfortable.
The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. The farm property was glorious, such a lovely place to escape to for two nights.
Close to Yarra Valley ballooning, Yarra Glen, Healesville etc, and yet quiet and peaceful. Great to have the property to ourselves and with all the comforts
Host was lovely, accommodating and friendly
The property, enclosed yet separate on a working farm, is in a great location, very quiet, with wonderful vistas & views.
The cottage was clean, nicely equipped & well maintained.
Our host was warm & friendly.
This stay was a return visit for us, & we would go again.
A small working farm in a quiet valley setting with dads, mums and calves just over the fence. An abundance of wildlife at our fingertips.
The cottage was clean, comfortable and well stocked. Our hosts were oh so welcoming and easy to chat with. We will be back.
Galoglen is beautifully maintained by Jacqui and Richard and sits on a lovely hill surrounded by wonderful views. They look after us so well, we are return visitors and we love their property.
Spacious, well equipped and comfortable property in a beautiful location. Exactly what we needed for our week long family holiday. Jacqui is a great host, she made sure we had everything we needed
... Lots of wombats in the local area :)
We had a fabulous long weekend at Galoglen. Jacqui was amazing at communicating and went out of her way to find us wood and make sure we were comfortable. Loved being around the farm and animals. Good local walks and easy drive to towns, wineries etc. Would definitely go again.
My wife and I took our two kids away to this beautiful property. The owners where so wonderful and they accommodated us so well. The property is stunning and the House is beautiful and very clean. We cant wait to come back again in the near future and visit this beautiful part of Victoria again.
This is our second stay at this lovely property. It is so peaceful, with views from every window. The verandah is a perfect place to sit and enjoy the scenery, and listen to the wildlife.
The owners are very hospitable, and always make us feel welcome.
We can't wait for our next visit.
Probably the most beautiful spot in the Yarra Valley! The owners are extremely friendly and so where the cows surrounding. It was perfect for a place to stay for my wedding and it's just surrounded by nature. I will definitely be coming back.
This was second time at Galoglen, and again it was perfect in every way. Spacious, exceptionally clean, very comfortable. Stunning views and extremely quiet and private. Jacquie is the perfect host, very helpful and warm personality. Thank you Jacquie
