Perfect for after a day in the slopes to roast marshmallows and warm ourselves. Leith was great with sorting any issues we had. Which was only to empty the bins when they got full. The proximity to the mountain was great and if you’re going up with a large group I reccomend king parrot retreat. ##### Shae L. Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### phuong l.

Aug 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful King Parrot Retreat We (8 adults and 2 kids) stayed at this beautiful property for two nights. The location is quiet and lovely; with the MMBL (Mt Buller Bus Line) approximately 10 minutes walk to the main road -very handy if you are going to the snow by bus) The house is absolutely beautiful, spread across 3 levels. The house is modern, spotlessly clean and well equipped; each bedroom has a wall panel heater that work perfectly and two modern, beautiful bathrooms. \* Note - if you can't find the big rubbish bins, they are probably at the end of the court :) Everything we needed (and more) was catered for. Thank you so much! We will be back :) ##### Patricia P.
