Editor's Choice - Hut on the Hill

While HUT ON THE HILL is a lovely rustic name, it doesn’t do justice to the fabulous accommodation you will find.  This gorgeous self-contained cottage is real 41/2 star accommodation, with 5 star energy rating!  David and Astrid have created a haven away from city noise, traffic and stress.  Just over 100 kms from Melbourne, yet a world away from everyday living. Honeymoon or holiday – romance or retreat … HUT ON THE HILL is the perfect choice.

The cottage is designed so that the spectacular views of the McHarg Ranges can be enjoyed from almost every aspect … the bed, by the fire or from the spa.  The accommodation boasts a king and queen bedroom, cosy wood fire, heated spa bath, reverse-cycle air-conditioning (or fans, for those who prefer them) … even a dishwasher!  Nothing has been overlooked to make this the ultimate retreat for couples, giving you the opportunity to relax, re-connect and rejuvenate.

HUT ON THE HILL also offers the perfect kick-off point to explore the surrounding region, which is a treasure trove of boutique wineries, olive groves and other local produce.  David and Astrid designed the cottage for themselves and have an unerring touch when it comes to providing luxury that blends into the beautiful countryside.

There is a gourmet kitchen, a gas BBQ and an outdoor “endless” swimspa, offering everything you need to make this a break to remember.  Look out for the Winter Warmer Escape special on offer during the cooler months, which includes complimentary slippers and use of super soft plush bathrobes in which to snuggle by the fire, while sipping your choice of sparkling wine or local shiraz. Oh and don’t forget to enjoy the delicious chocolates which are also supplied.  Take advantage of the bread-making machine and wake to freshly-baked bread to enjoy with the ample breakfast provisions supplied. 

David & Astrid can also help you with their local knowledge of the best places to dine, buy produce or visit to enjoy the local scenery and galleries.
