Comfortable room with a spacious shared balcony ideal for lazing around. Close to Serendip and the You Yangs for wildlife viewing and walking, and pleasant walks nearby along Hovell Creek.

We had a lovely, quiet, restful sleep in a comfy bed. Loved waking to bird and insect song. Wish we had more time to spend sitting relaxing on the lovely deck.
