About this property
Boutique Couples Retreat: Forest, Spa & Wood Fire
Wake to the birds, the gum trees and the Grampians through the glass: a soothing spa, a wood fire in the evening. A Heavenly Escape is a boutique couples retreat on a private double forest block, close enough to walk to Halls Gap, private enough to forget it.
"This is a place that seemed to sit somewhere between a gallery and a home without explicitly becoming either. Every single part of the accommodation was wonderfully intentional." (Will, 2026)
Wake to kangaroos on the grass, and cockatoos, rosellas and kookaburras at breakfast, watched from the deck among the gum trees. Inside, the cabin is hung with my own original photography, set up balancing creativity with comfort, homeliness with the sometimes quirky.
"We saw cockatoos, lorikeets, kangaroos and emus, all from the balcony, and I've never seen so many stars in my life." (Samantha)
Spa, wood fire, a raised deck (my favourite), a full kitchen, Weber BBQ and a great film library: everything you need to slow right down. Bushwalk, kayak, bike, and taste local wines by day, light the fire and run the spa by night.
"Perfect cabin in the woods, serene and calm. Warm beds, fireplace & hot tub made the stay so cosy and comfy, perfect to relax after long hikes in the Grampians." (Wally, 2026)
Secluded and quiet, off the grid a little, yet a ten-minute walk into town: a retreat for two, and a perfect base from which to explore the Grampians.
"We had a truly magical stay, where the beauty of the Grampians felt like it was right in our living room. It was a nature lover's dream to wake up to such a pristine, tranquil environment, while still being so close to the local walking trails." (Arun, 2026)
Own driveway and parking, self check-in, a bottle of wine on arrival. Ask me about one-night stays, longer stay discounts, infants and pets.
Slow right down. Time to Escape.

Had a great stay. Love Halls Gap winters with cold misty weather and Heavenly Escape was the perfect place to stay warm and relax with the fireplace and spa. Hope to return
This was our 2nd time staying here, and both times have been amazing stays. Very relaxing getaway, didn't want to leave. Will be returning again soon. Would highly recommend this place to an
Heavenly Escape comes as advertised! Lodgings are spacious, clean, delightfully decored, wonderfully positioned and the hot tub is the perfect size for 2!
Timothy was great to deal with, the information was clear and comprehensive. We'd definitely stay her again when in the Grampians!
Our stay here was so amazing little piece of heaven, though the photos made it look a little more isolated than what it is, it doesn’t impact the privacy! Couldn’t really hear anyone else besides them arriving. Was such a great escape would definitely recommend.
Wonderful open plan with windows looking onto a woodland property. Great location for accessing the Grampians hiking trails. Comfortable and spacious. Nice front deck for kangaroos to hop past! The house was friendly and and communicative. If I have the opportunity to return to Halls Gap I would definitely book it again.

Set in the middle of Halls Gap this place was amazing to stay at. Wildlife at your doorstep and such a comfortable quiet clean place with some amazing local photography from the host. Will definitely stay there again. Plenty of information on hand for day trips and places of interest. Everything you will need is supplied just bring food and snacks.
Accommodation was relaxing and just as described. No wi fi so be aware. Lovely area and great local businesses to go to.

When we first entered the property there was a very bad odor, the kitchen was greasy and the bathroom had existing hair on the tiles.
It was an ok stay

This cabin in the woods is perfect. Very special experience. Spacious. Beautifully decorated. Homely. Quiet. Surrouned by nature, kangaroos, birds. Kookaburra's chat each morning in trees nearby. Easy fireplace. Plus split system heater, cooler. Big clean windows with lovely views of nature, the moutain you feel you can almost touch. Spacious bathroom. Clean. A personal touch of a bottle of Shiraz 2 glasses on the table on arrival. We could feel the love of our host Tim through the attention to detail. We LOVED it all so much, we are going back for NYE in a month's time. Cafes fantastic, great coffee, yummy food, such friendly community. You MUST experience the serenity and beauty for yourselves. So relaxing. Balcony deck with chairs lounge chair so you're emerged in nature. Its SO special. Thank you Tim, you are the perfect host. Excellent email communication and tour guide extras. This is truly magical. Please enjoy it as much as we did. We have stunning memories we will always treasure. Much love gratitude to you Tim and our special holiday immersion in nature. xx
Fantastic Getaway. So Peaceful. Look forward to returning again in the near future.
Very Neat and Tidy. We loved the art work on the walls, and of coarse, the wildlife were a pleasant attraction. The woodfire was so nice to cuddle up to at night when it was cold. And to top it off the Spa was an extra bonus. Would love to come back again. 10/10. Thankyou so much Tim, We both needed this getaway.
A beautiful spot away from the hustle and bustle of Halls Gap while still within a walkable distance — it’s a bit of a walk— to restaurants, shops, trails etc. Equipped as described. Feels like you are up in a tree house; just glorious to enjoy a cuppa on the verandah on a sunny morning watching wildlife and taking in the views.
Such a welcome break from the city. Mountain views through the trees, wallabies and birds surrounding, no intruding noise, and art to enjoy indoors. Super!
Heavenly Escape is a great property to get away from it all. Tim was very easy and fantastic to deal with. The property itself is fairly open plan with everything you need. It has a great back deck to sip a glass of wine and watch the birds fly by. It's also cosy on the inside for when the weather got cooler - the fireplace worked a treat. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and will definitely try and come back again.
Fantastic property, exactly like the photo's. Couldn't have been more comfortable. The location was terrific, with a nice walk into town when we preferred. Had everything we needed. Will definitely be making this an annual getaway.

Relaxing and Peaceful
Heavenly Escape is exactly as it is shown in the pictures. Surrounded by bushland and native plants cared for by the owner. It was 1c overnight and frosty but the log fire and heating worked very well. It was a luxury having a hot spa and good quality shower and dishwasher. The other properties are close by but not a problem. We have stayed in 3 other places before at Halls Gap which were good but this one is the best. I rate it very highly especially as you need comfort and a reward after long days walking and climbing . We had a lovely weekend.

Relaxing bush setting
Heavenly Escape provided a welcoming & warm base for our stay in Halls Gap. There were lovely little luxuries provided including wine, chocolates & basic breakfast supplies as well as fresh garden flowers. After a day of wandering through the Grampians it was hard to choose between settling in front of the wood fire or soaking in the spa...so we got take away & did both. Waking up in the morning to the sound of kookaburra laughter & watching deer grazing outside our window as we had breakfast topped off a perfect stay.
