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
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.
It is well appointed with the kitchen, dining, lounge, bedrooms (x 2) and bathroom. The deck was lovely to sit out on to enjoy the fresh air to look at the cows, the birds and the kangaroos. Jacquelynn was friendly and a delight to speak to. Would definitely stay here again if we were to come back to Yarra Glen. Only downside: no breakfast provisions but there was (lovely) coffee, tea, milk and biscuits. Thank you, Jacquelynn.
We were attending a wedding at Fergusson Winery, so this location was perfect! So picturesque, surrounded by cows. The place was clean and comfortable. The owners stopped by and were so accommodating. A great place to stay and unwind during a hectic week.
Just FYI, for anyone using google maps, the gate for the property is before the location registered on the map. It may also try to direct you via fenced off roads.
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 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.
Our 5 days away was amazing at Galoglen. The birdie, the cattle, the kangaroos and ducks. Hosts are just lovely.
Home is very well presented for visitors. Board Games etc
Kitchen is very well organised
2 beds, 1 med- firm, which my back enjoyed having a shocking bad back, the other bed is firm.
We will most definitely be back and such a short drive to town as well. 10/10
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.
A beautiful quaint little cottage nestled in the rolling hills of Steels Creek. The peace and quiet is amazing with the lowing of cattle occassionally breaking the silence. Roos in the paddock of a morning and a view of green undulating paddocks to add to the peacefulness. And only 5 minutes out of Yarra Glen. What a gem.
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.
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 :)
Lovely farm cottage set amongst a picturesque farm. Cows and ducks can be seen from every window.
Very peaceful and serene.
It is only a short drive to the town of Yarra Glen for supplies.
Comfortable beds and everything you could possibly need. We definitely recommend Galoglen!
A good quiet time away from the madding crowd!
Nicely appointed accommodation with good attention to detail. 360 degrees of greenery and hills - with space and long views. The host (Jacqui) checked in that all was well. Very reasonable rates.
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.
A very relaxing weekend. Beautiful farmland, close to Yarra Glen and Healsville. Lots of birds and kangaroos. Accommodation was very clean and well appointed.
I would like to express my dearest thank you's to our lovely host for having us at their beautiful cottage in steels creek. The location was absolutely amazing, close to all the wildlife and it's surroundings. The cottage had everything we could possibly need. The trip was short, but cannot wait to visit again very soon. Thanks 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.
