We stayed in Stuart’s Cabin for 2 nights, our host Andrew could not have been more welcoming. We were greeted with soft jazz playing and a roaring fire.. warm, freshly baked bread and fridge full of yummy treats. The cabin is beautifully decorated with a rustic charm and everything you could possibly need for a relaxing stay. The linen is fresh and crisp and the L’Occitane toiletries are 5 star. The breakfast hamper was tailored to our dietary needs and we felt truly spoilt. Andrew recommended and booked fabulous locations for our dinners and offered advice on where to go and what to see in the area. Each morning we awoke to kangaroos and alpacas feeding outside the cabin. The bird life is fantastic to see. Our only complaint was having to leave.. this property is highly recommended by us and we look forward to returning soon. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/83B7A4EECABD91C7BBD4925EFFA1E2E967977E341594349022220.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A3F09D59835E03DF9AD2868421AAD2865EE37D581594349023217.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/957A0D0E057C79E3204C9F022C2649722AEE09AD1594349023075.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Lucie Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 14, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Beautiful cabin in a quiet leafy setting with friendly Alpacas grazing in the paddock next door.

We had a wonderful four nights - Andrew was an exceptional host. Fresh bread and other provisions - the salmon and feta were very special - made the experience so memorable. The location is outstanding - nestled in gardens that must be magnificent when in bloom. The warmth of the hospitality on offer, and the comfort of the cottage, made it very difficult to leave. We will be back! ##### Tim Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew, Melbourne Apr 19, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wonderful garden setting Our cottage was not only wonderful inside with comfy chairs and cosy fire, it had a spectacular setting in a beautiful garden alive with all the Autumn colour we went to Macedon to see.
