Cheviot Glen Cottages
Limestone Rd, Yea, Victoria
Immerse yourself in rural tranquillity at Cheviot Glen!
Cheviot Glen has two self-contained cottages right in the heart of its 430 acre grazing property, near Yea. We were impressed by the beautiful scenery as we drove up the winding driveway past a magnificent gum tree and the dam. We stopped to pick up the keys at the owner’s house and she took us the short distance to the cottage, where we could park right outside.
Overall rating: Excellent
