Rainy Hill Retreat - The Loft

The Loft is accessible by a flight of stairs and is located on the top floor of an architecturally designed rammed earth shed, completely seperate and privately located from the main house. It offers comfort with king size bed, quality bed linen, tea and coffee facilities and views of the natural bush below. No WiFi The Loft has a beautiful relaxing feel, the room is spacious and the tranquil view of the gum trees through the picture window is wonderful. If you are lucky you can watch the Wallabies feed from the room as you can see in the pictures which were taken from the bedroom windows. There is a large amount of bird life in the area from Wedge Tailed Eagles, Black and White Cockatoos, Kookaburras, Rosellas, King Parrots and a vast array of small Finches and Nectar eating birds. There are no cooking facilities apart from a kettle, fridge, microwave and toaster, but if a weekend away from all that is what you are after there are many great restaurants and takeaway places, or perhaps put a platter together and enjoy with a glass of wine in your apartment. Tea and coffee facilities are provided as well as a glass of port on us. Please note: we love dogs but remember you are responsible for yours at all time and they are not to be left alone. Also please respect our decor and ensure they are not allowed on the bed or furniture. When finding our place you will see a flying pig letter box and a gate with a sign saying Rainy Hill Retreat. Please open gate and come in. Please note that if you are looking for accommodation walking distance shops and cafes then we aren’t for you as we are amongst bush and farm land. The nearest shop is a short 5 kilometres drive to Cockatoo Main Street or Gembrook Guests can wander around the property as they please. I am happy to chat with guests or leave them in peace and respect their privacy, up to you. Cockatoo is a lovely quite town and we are located in an area surrounded by acreage so it is very private and peaceful. Cockatoo can be a great base from which to explore the surrounding towns, great restaurants and winery's. There isn't a great deal of public transport in the area, best to arrive and get around by car. We can drive you short distances if you need. Please be mindful that this is a country property so you will not have the amenities of a city hotel, please do not review on such thing’s.
