About this property

A cosy and quiet retreat, walking distance to town and Eildon pondage.

Come and relax in this lovely renovated home.

The whole house is yours, perfect for one family or two. The back deck is a highlight, with comfy lounges, a gas bbq and dining table for 8. Relax and enjoy the native birds with a view of the mountains behind.

Cosy in winter, light and airy in summer, Hillside Haven is the ideal place to unwind and explore. Walking distance to the local shops, bakery, cafes, playgrounds including the new Skate & Splash Park, town pool and the Lower Pondage trail.

All linen and bath towels are supplied for your stay. During the cooler months, you may wish to consider an extra blanket from home as it can get chilly overnight.

There is a split system for heating and cooling.

An optional Coonara wood fire is available, but you'll need to supply your own wood and kindling. You can purchase these from the local supermarket if you'd like to enjoy the fire.

There is also an evaporative cooler which works brilliantly over summer.

If you're up early you might see some kangaroos on the front lawn. Any time of day you might get a visit from King Parrots, Kookaburras and Cockatoos who like to visit the back deck.

Had fantastic stay over the Easter long weekend with my family! Property is spacious and has an amazing outdoor area that our dog Evie absolutely loved. Walking distance to shops and pondage super close. Beds super comfy as well, which is important to me! Would 100% stay again :D

Eildon cosy Hillside Haven

We loved our family stay at The Hillside Haven in Eildon. The modern house had everything we needed for our family. The Coonara wood heater kept us toasty warm and the highlight for our toddler was the arrival of all the brightly coloured birds on the back deck.

Thanks for your review Robyn, we appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment after your stay. Glad you had a great time in Eildon and found plenty to do. We love the winter months when it's a bit quieter and the native wildlife come right into town. We've updated our listing to make it clearer that the wood fire is the heating source for the whole house. Cheers, Justin and Emma.
