Eight Acre Paddock - The Guesthouse (Glenburn)

The Guesthouse, attached to our family home and has many unique architectural features, ply panelling, recycled and salvaged timbers throughout. The bedroom is minimally decorated. The bathroom and small kitchenette with hand crafted timber features, opens out to an al fresco dining and cooking area with a private deck overlooking the paddocks and rambling bushland. Somewhere to reflect, listen to the birds and whisper gently to the horses. Come and stay, it's quiet here. If you have IG you can follow us @eightacrepaddock Or feel free to check out our website e (Website hidden by Airbnb) The Guesthouse and our adjoining home is built on what is colloquially known as The Eight Acre Paddock.

The beautifully appointed ply panelled and bamboo floored bedroom - with a queen sized bed, a convertible day-bed, European panel heating & an air-conditioner - is a quiet space. Please note, the bedroom and the kitchenette both open out to the deck and are joined only by the covered area. Going from the bedroom to the bathroom for example, means you will be stepping out to the deck, walk 2 metres to the kitchenette and through to the bathroom, as there are no connecting doors. The Guesthouse has a small kitchenette, refrigerator, coffee pod machine, microwave, a modern gas BBQ (out on the deck) an electric plug in hotplate (out on the deck), toaster, kettle, crockery and cutlery, in addition to a washing machine if required.

It features a private entrance, bedroom, deck, kitchenette, bathroom and car space. Please feel free to take a walk across our paddocks or along the twisting creek that borders the entire property, it is rambling but lovely. Please send me a message, should you require anything throughout your stay. We are situated within the National Park and many walking trails are at our doorstep. There is a pub within a 10 minute drive up the road, however, if you're happy to drive a little further, you will find countless award winning restaurants and wineries within the surrounding Yarra Valley.

Please ask me for detailed directions before you embark on your journey. There is a small yet well stocked supermarket in Kinglake (10 min drive). There is NO WIFI as we are in a rural area and have limited access. No smoking inside or within the covered area. NO shoes on inside (bring slippers!) To access the bathroom or kitchenette from the bedroom, you will be stepping out onto the deck, it is covered but it is outside and this may be disconcerting for some people at night.

We recommend Meletos in Coldstream for lunch or dinner (30 minute drive). We are a rain water property, so please be water wise.
