Stringybark is only 60 minutes North of Melbourne but you feel a million miles away. Surrounded by bush and completely independant of main house - if privacy and relaxation is what you're after, you've come to the right place.

This lovely contemporary 2 storey cottage has all the creature comforts for a recharge - bush views from every window (including the spa), great modern kitchen, spacious lounge/dining room, wood fire, queen beds down and upstairs,luxurious bedlinen and bath sheets, generous farmers breakfast, covered BBQ area, hammocks & picnic table.

Pets are welcome only by arrangement and the deck area is securely fenced.

Favourite pastimes here include taking in the bush views, watching the sun filter through the gums from an early morning spa, cranking up the fire for a cosy night in, BBQ's under the stars, picnic in the bush on the property, wandering up our little road into the forest or a short drive to the beautiful Strath Creek Falls.

If you want to go further afield, you can go in any direction but we highly recommend you plan a day sampling Goulburn valley Wineries: award winning Plunketts wines and restaurant with views onto the Granite hills of the Strathbogies,historic Chateau Tahbilk in the Nagambie Lakes region with vines dating back to the 1850's, Dalfarras wetlands cafe & gallery at Tahbilk built over the billabongs with boardwalks and weekend pont tours,Brave Goose, Maygars Hill, Tarup Ridge, Twelve Acres... the geographical and climatic diversity of the Goulburn Valley region produces excellent varieties of reds and white wines and some spectacular scenery along the way.

Highly recommend a meal at the acclaimed Harvest Home Hotel at Avenel to celebrate a special occasion.

Stringybark is big enough to share with friends and family but intimate enough for two - our aim is to send you home feeling relaxed, pampered and special with some great memories.
