A romantic hut set on a 22 acre bush block on the edge of Mount Tennerife in the spectacular Macedon Ranges.
Sleeps two people in a four poster queen bed and boasts a unique outdoor bath perched amongst the trees. Sip on a champagne and soak in the tranquility while listening to the songs of the birds.
This intimate glamping experience offers comfortable amenities and an opportunity to experience nature in quiet seclusion. There are no power points, however USB ports are available to charge iPhones etc.
On arrival pop on the comfy shoes and grab your gear to take the five minute downhill trek to the hut, it’s a steep climb on the return trip to your car but great for the heart and well worth the effort.
A five minute drive to the local town of Riddells Creek that has an IGA supermarket for all your supplies, a choice of Thai, Indian, Chinese, Fish & Chips, local bakery and great cafes as well as the Pub all offer great food at reasonable prices.
This is an environmentally sensitive property and consideration must be given to waste and fire management at all times.

Would highly recommend" - "Great little getaway" - "We had the most lovely stay at Hut between the Xmas and NY period. It was the perfect place to slow down and connect with each other and nature. Deb and Lyn were wonderful hosts and were flexible with our dates due to extreme heat as well as meeting us at the property to show us down to the hut and heating the bath, which we loved! Cannot recommend enough. Thanks Deb & Lyn"

Our home was built by a craftsman, our son in 2015. The house is perched on a 22 acre bush block on the side of Mt Teneriffe in the Macedon Ranges. The house is an open plan design with an amazing bush outlook from every window in every room.
The large master bedroom is comfortable with a luxurious queen bed dressed in exquisite linen, wall mounted TV, French doors that exit onto the magnificent deck, an open walkthrough wardrobe and a lovely modern ensuite with a step less shower. Relax in bed to the sounds of the birds and spot the kangaroos feeding on the lawn in the early morning.
The second bedroom also boasts a queen sized bed with built in robes and has a French door that exits onto the deck. The third bedroom has a triple bunk, double bed with single on top and a porta cot if required.
The bathroom is tastefully fitted out with a Blackwood timber bench, a ceramic bath and seperate shower. Laze away the afternoon with a bath and bubbles, open the large bay window to allow more of the bush smells and sounds to embrace your senses.
The kitchen is open plan with modern appliances and fully equipped with everything you need to cook up a storm. Use the ESSE wood fire stove/heater to slow cook a curry or stew as well as provide a comfortable heat to the lounge in Winter. A butlers pantry provides additional cooking preparation space and a European laundry with washing machine and drier.
The open lounge/dining is furnished with mid century dressers and couches that give the home a unique old world charm.
Large stacker doors open up to the alfresco area where you can cook on the BBQ, keep your beers cold in the fridge and dine at the large dining setting while watching the footy or cricket on the outside TV. Enjoy the outdoor fire pit on camp chairs with a red wine and toast some marshmallows.
All rooms have split system heating and cooling to provide comfort in all seasons and even the coolest and whitest of winters you will be snug as a bug with the double glazed windows and doors and fully insulated walls and ceilings, all beds have electric blankets.
Tour the Ranges to discover some of the famous eateries and wineries within close proximity. Climb the Rock, walk to the cross or be challenged by any of the varied walking trails in the region.
This tranquil and private setting will not disappoint and is guaranteed to provide you with the much needed tree change from the busy burbs.
- "Even though this property is quite close to Melbourne, it really feels like you're in a separate world once you drive up the hill away from Riddells Creek and get into the bush. The house is on a VERY quiet stretch of dirt road, and you're surrounded by beautiful bushland complete with kangaroos, echidnas and koalas (plus three lovely chooks that our girls fell in love with). The house itself was ideal for our family - the layout, facilities and views all came together to so completely relax us that we really didn't want to go anywhere else. Going for walks/runs/bike rides along the road (way from Riddells Creek) is also a highly recommended activity. Thanks Deb and Lyn for making us feel so welcome and for allowing us to stay in your wonderful house."

Guest access
Parking is near the tiny house, just off the driveway. There are 4 steps up to the front, sorry it is not wheelchair accessible.
Check-in
Checking in is made easy with self-check in. The key will be left in a key safe for you so you can check in any time you like (after 3pm). If you let us know when you think you will be checking in, we will call by to say hi if we are home.
Check-out
You will find a Check out to-do list on the bench when you arrive and we really appreciate your help with this, as it helps us to keep the costs as low as possible for everyone. Please let me know if you need assistance with these jobs. An additional cleaning fee will be charged if they aren't completed.

Other things to note
You may come across some insects during your stay. Flies, mosquitos, ants and spiders are a natural part of the ecosystem here. Insect repellent and spray are provided if you need them.
Please note, this Tiny House is on a 3 acre block of land. You will have the front 1 and a 1/4 acre area/paddock to yourself. The main house on the property is approximately 60m away, and an art studio is approximately 50m away, both are behind the Tiny House. The driveway for the Tiny house is shared with the rest of the property so you may see a car or person walk along the driveway occasionally. We aim to give our guests as much privacy as possible. While the Tiny is surrounded by native trees and there is plenty of wildlife, it is not in the middle of nowhere and you can see other houses in the distance. The access road is approximately 50m away and it has a small amount of traffic, probably more walkers than cars though.
The couch sitting area is utilised by removing the bed linen (you can pop the bedding in the cupboards or the loft area), taking the breaks off the bed banquettes and rolling them out to the sides (then put the brakes back on). Use the pillows and cushions provided as a back rest. If you prefer to have the couches all set up for you on arrival, please let us know by the day before and we will arrange this for you. Otherwise the bed will be all made up for you.
The loft area has a foam mattress that is a few inches thick. It is not a proper sleeping mattress.

In the picturesque Macedon Ranges is Rooks Edge, an 84-acre property offering a contemporary upmarket Bed & Breakfast with three rooms for couples or groups. Ten minutes from Gisborne (40 minutes from Melbourne airport), the deluxe rooms are designed to take in the sensational mountain views and glorious sunsets. Focusing on peace and privacy, this third of three rooms is perfect for a luxury getaway. Alternately, with twin room configuration this makes the perfect location for groups who want to get together; hike, cycle, bird watch or crafters. Entry to all three rooms is via a common entrance that holds a lounge, small library and kitchen.
A registered sheep stud, come and stay overnight, the weekend or for a week. Rooks Edge is located at the edge of Bullengarook, overlooking Lerderderg and Wombat State Park with open views to the Brisbane Ranges, the You Yangs and Corio Bay. This is the perfect central site for you within 10-30 minutes drive of 16 wineries, Hanging Rock, Kyneton Hatted restaurants, Gisborne restaurants and cafes, weekly farmers markets, artisan crafts, galleries or hiking and mountain bike riding.
The rooms are named after some of our stud sheep...we know but wait until you meet them ..... We think Rooks Edge is pretty special but don’t just take our word for it…
- "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The room was luxurious, spacious and the communal area had all the facilities to cook our own meals. Well positioned and close to Gisborne and Woodend. Def recommend and would return." - "Incredible views! Fantastic hosts. Peaceful stay only 9 minutes from all the conveniences of Gisborne. You could learn a lot from the hosts who wear many hats - and run a great bnb experience. Thankful they are willing to share their slice of heaven with others. Relaxation with 5 star comfort, might be the place where dreams are born."
