Candlelight Cottages Retreat

Privacy, comfort and luxury in the Dandenong Ranges. Visit our website to check availability & book online - it's simple!

The Dandenong Ranges are less than an hour from Melbourne CBD, but a world apart.

Perhaps lie in your beautiful bed, laze by the open wood fire, luxuriate in a deep relaxing spa bath - the choice is yours!

Beautiful rainforest gardens, landscaped with ferns, waterfalls and tinkling streams, Cottage in the Village and Candlelight Cottage offer complete privacy for romantic and peaceful getaways.

Candlelight Cottage 1880 is a rare historic cottage in the Dandenong’s. It is an original cottage, centrally heated with two bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom with spa (glass ceiling) and a leadlight filled lounge/dining room with a proper open fire and a private garden. A second bedroom is perfect for a family stay or for friends together.

Cottage in the Village is a boutique Gingerbread style open-plan cottage which features brick floors in the living room, open fire, kitchen, full bathroom and the bedroom which has polished timber floors and a spa bath(with glass ceiling over) opens into a private courtyard - perfect for two people.

Cottage in the Forest is hidden away between Sassafras and Olinda villages.  Lie in your king-size bed and view the tree ferns through the huge window, snuggle up by the open fire with a glass of wine or luxuriate in a deep spa bath.

It is a short stroll from the cottages to the delights of Olinda Village where you will find lots of restaurants, cafes, galleries, craft shops, or for the more energetic - Olinda Golf Course, the 100 acres of National Rhododendron Gardens and the magnificent gardens of Cloudehill.

Wineries of the Yarra Valley, Puffing Billy Steam Train and William Rickett's Sanctuary are within easy reach.
