Weekend Trip to Macedon Ranges Glamping

We had a fantastic time here! Jonathan and Jennifer were so lovely and welcoming, and do a mean vegan breakfast! The bell tent had everything we needed including board games, a coffee machine, and a mini fridge. There's also a table and chairs outside of the tent so we relaxed out there with a bottle of wine. We loved seeing the local wildlife that they care for too. Will be back again!

Weekend Trip to Earth’s Edge

We had a wonderful time staying in Lil Pattie! The hosts were friendly, helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay! The hot tub was delightful and we really enjoyed watching the farm animals on the rolling landscape around the caravan!

Weekend Trip to Lalgambook Retreat

We recently stayed in Vanessa the Vintage Van at the beautiful Lalgambook Retreat over a long weekend, and while it turned out to be the wettest weekend imaginable, we had a truly memorable experience. Perched on a picturesque property overlooking a serene dam, the van itself is absolutely charming—originally styled, incredibly comfortable, and had everything you could possibly need for a cozy stay. Despite the unexpected cold snap, our experience was warm and welcoming thanks to the wonderful hosts, who went above and beyond by providing extra blankets and a heater to keep us comfortable. Although the rain kept us indoors for most of the time - when we weren’t navigating Daylesford - we genuinely enjoyed the peaceful, snug atmosphere and left already planning our return. Next time, we’re looking forward to making the most of the property, hosting a fire pit, taking nature walks, and spotting the local wildlife. Vanessa is a little gem in a truly special setting. Highly recommend for anyone after a unique, restful retreat—rain or shine!

Weekend Trip to Macedon Ranges Glamping

I found this listing after some google searching for a glamping adventure for my partner and I during Valentine's day. The listing looked fantastic. Communication from booking was prompt and they were very helpful in letting me know what was provided. Fast forward and the place was exactly as advertised. We went on a cooler day which was a nice way to spend the day inside from the elements (especially since they preheated the tent worrying, we would be cold). The tent was cosy, with power and other amenities, all wrapped up in a charming decor. A separate, private bathroom was also provided. We made ourselves a bbq and all utensils were provided. The optional tent-service breakfast was treat, with an order form and a number of delicious options. We got the opportunity to spend some time with the hosts as they showed us how they run their wildlife reserve for roos. We even got to see some roos up close and personal from a respectable and safe distance. The hosts had a lot of insight to share not only on kangaroos but other nearby sites worth a visit while you're in the area. They are lovely to chat with so it was a blast! Overall if you are looking for a nice getaway with a touch of creature comforts, I would highly recommend this place.
