Captivating and Unique Tudor Inspired "Gingerbread house"

This fairy-tale property is hand built and set in the rainforest of the Dandenong's. (bordering Olinda). The Tudor inspired home transports you to another time.... with features including exposed timber trusses and beams, timber staircase and lead light windows. The home incorporates a formal dining area with magnificent bay window, lounge, built-in bar, Conara fireplace, upstairs opulent master King size bedroom with en-suite and spa bath, Double peacock room and double bed bunk downstairs... Unfortunately, no disabled access due to the many steps leading from the carport to the house. Strictly no parties or large gatherings. Unfortunately no pets or WIFI/No free to air TV so we have provided DVD's for your enjoyment. The upstairs bedroom doors are removable.

Our Fairy tale Dream Getaway

Staying in this Magnificent property was like stepping straight into the pages of a fairy-tale! The architecture and furnishings were beautiful! We loved the Opulent king master bed and spa and our kids just loved the peacock room.. Spotlessly clean, complimentary chockies and champagne added a great touch.. The grounds were beautiful and we even spotted rosellas and king parrots in the trees! Highly recommend the hosts and the property!
