Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Luxury Lakeside Cottage B&B

Step inside the door to the irresistible smell of fragrant candles, freshly home baked bread and quiet music playing in the background - and spoil yourself.
Slip into a luxurious, fluffy bathrobe and fill the double spa with bubbles. Pop a cork, nibble on cheese and bickies, and just sink into serenity.

Graze through the fridge and discover the sumptuous array of breakfast provisions and whip up an espresso or a cappuccino, and then snuggle up together in front of the gas log fire and watch a big screen T.V.
Sprawl on the couch in the sun-filled conservatory, open the doors to meet the breeze, and just relax, kick back on the king size bed, or be pampered with a massage.

The single cottage, specially designed and surrounded by five glorious acres of manicured botanical gardens with mountain views and a private lake, is the perfect secluded getaway.

A country oasis filled with the sounds of birds instead of the sounds of traffic. Feel a world away from work yet within a short trip from Melbourne and just a 10 minute scenic drive to the top of the Dandenong's.

Stroll through the gardens and picnic amongst the kookaburras and feed the baby ducklings. At night the grounds are lit up to highlight the blossoms, the arch and swing bridges, the antique wagons and the fountain rippling the water - and you don’t have to share it with anyone.
Then wake up slowly and languish with a 11am checkout and amble through the roses once more before continuing on with your journey. You’re so close to so many attractions you won’t know where to begin.
Relax, unwind and remember what it is to just be the two of you!

It’s a place where time stands still.... at least for a little while.

Hidden from the world – yet within minutes of the Yarra Valley’s and Mount Dandenong’s finest restaurants, wineries and reception venues, classy tea rooms and easy country drives – you’ll find Lakeside Cottage. Described as the “most perfect, quiet and romantic accommodation destination you’ll find in picturesque surroundings” (by Eat Play Stay), you’ll marvel at the glorious setting, petal-ed with colour, as the ideal place for a marriage proposal, an anniversary, a special celebration, your wedding night, or even the night before your wedding with your bridesmaids. Consider eloping to Lakeside Cottage.

Wonderful stay in kilsyth south
My husband and I stayed here on our wedding night - place is clean, cosy, and the spa bath is great with a fireplace! There was also a loaf of homemade bread which was delicious. Kaye was lovely in allowing an early check in for the groomsmen to get ready :) thanks Kaye!

Fantastic hideaway
Highly recommended for a relaxing weekend. Wish we had a couple of nights, not just the one. The property is lovely to walk around and the accommodation is very comfortable. We highly enjoyed the outdoor spaces and sitting in the atrium type area. Kaye also made the most amazing loaf of bread! The spa bath is great to soak in after a long day. We were surprised how close locals shops and restaurants were too. Highly recommend Mountain Thai. A great night sleep, breakfast provisions the following day and close to local attractions meant an enjoyable experience overall.

Kaye keeps the place immaculate and she is an amazing host
Everything was cleaned top to bottom when we arrived, fridge stocked with breakfast and she even made fresh homemade bread for the following morning. One of the best weekend holidays I've had in a long time.

Beautiful and peaceful
Beautiful and peaceful place, Kaye was more than welcoming with freshly baked bread when we arrived. It was a little smaller than anticipated but overall a very lovely experience. Price wise I think can be a little lower but would happily come back !!!!
