Alkira Cottages

Only 60 minutes drive from Melbourne city centre, Alkira is an idyllic rural retreat that is a haven of peace and tranquillity.

Situated on a park-like 100 acre property, the cottages sit high on a ridge, looking over the adjacent State Park to a 180 degree panorama of scenic countryside, rolling hills and rugged mountains in the distance.

Our 2 Cottages have been built to a wonderful traditional design with exposed beams and extensive internal timber work. They are beautifully furnished with solid Baltic pine furniture and colour-coordinated cottage print fabrics.

Naturally they have open fires with a plentiful supply of firewood. Each cottage has it's own spa, which is truly something special. Very private, discretely set in a landscaped garden with fragrant bushes and trees, they are under cover, have wind protection and are usable at any time of the year, in any kind of weather.

The perfect way to refresh the body on a slow, sleepy, summer's afternoon or even better; gaze, whilst luxuriating in steamy hot water, at the night sky on a cold, frosty, winter night. There is simply no substitute for a traditional open log fire.

Bring a book and luxuriate in the warm glow of the flames, pausing reading every now again to take a sip of wine and look out across the trees at the ever-changing vista of the distant ranges.

The cottages have music systems and VCR's. Be sure to bring some of your favourite music and perhaps a couple of videos.
