Stayed two nights at Holly Lodge for my partners birthday weekend and had an amazing time. Stephen was very welcoming and had lots of recommendations for things we could do in the area. We visited Sky High, Pie in the Sky, Olinda Botanic Gardens and had one of the best meals I've ever had at the Pig and Whistle. The honeymoon sweet was cosy and had everything we needed. Highly recommend!
Our stay in the Honeymoon Suite was overall a good experience - the location is lovely, with a handful of cafes and walks nestled in the ranges.
The room itself was nice and warm (much needed for Melbourne winters), and the spa bath was great. Plenty of food provided for breakfast, too.
The only things we struggled a bit with were getting the Chromecast to work, and using the electric frying pan, which was a little difficult to easily/safely control the temperature of.
All in all still an enjoyable weekend away.
Took my partner away and we stayed in the Honeymoon suite. Absolutely blown away with how well presented and romantic the room was. Plenty of Breakfast supplied for both mornings. Very cosy and quiet cottage. The Manager Steve communicated well and was very inviting and accommodating. The room was well equipped, bed was comfortable and spa bath was big enough for 2. Added bonus was foxtell. Highly recommend and we will be back to stay again soon. Thank you :)
Would highly recommend this accommodation. 5 stars for all areas. The owners were really delightful, accommodating and extremely warm and helpful. The best bed i have ever slept in and pillows also, so leave your own pillows at home. Beautiful gardens, amazing views , and the bird life was abundant. Mark this for your next stay, you wont be dissapointed. We plan to return, sad we had to come back home, 10/10 .
Holly Lodge is in a beautiful Nature Reserve, situated in the heart of the Dandenong Ranges, close to the villages of Olinda and Sassafras. It is a stone throw away from the Yarra Valley, Victoria's beautiful wine region.
