Hidden Valley House is nestled in Anakie, VIC, set within the scenic Brisbane National Ranges and only a 1-hour drive from Melbourne CBD. Taking into consideration our ethos around sustainability, the cabin is “off-grid” so solar powered with a composting toilet but with all the amenities you need. The cabin has spectacular views overlooking the valley with an abundance of wildlife and has a small creek and several caves which have formed over millions of years. As well as the cabin, we offer a camping area to larger groups that need overflow accommodation if the cabin is not big enough. This makes Hidden Valley House a fantastic option for large groups wanting to have all the comfort and amenities of the cabin, but experience the back-to-basic joy of camping in nature. Set on an 18-acre property at the start of the Brisbane National Ranges, it is home to koalas, kangaroos, echidnas, sugar gliders and an abundance of birds including eagles and kookaburras. Furthermore, the land is protected by Trust for Nature and Land for Wildlife offering long-term protection for many ecosystems, species and native wildlife. The property is surrounded by national parks and is only a short drive from charming, historical towns such as Meredith and Steiglitz and only 25mins to Geelong. A number of family-owned wineries are located nearby and within Victoria’s Moorabool Valley winery. AWD/4WD recommended

Beautiful spot and great setup - ideal place for a group to camp but with all the benefits of being able to cook and hang out in a cabin if it's raining

Such a perfect cabin and location! Could not complain about one thing. Only 20min from shops and not far from lorne/great ocean road if you feel like going on a nice drive. Fun little walking track around too. Will definitely come back

Loved staying at the Hidden Valley house. Everything you need for a weekend away! Great fire place inside and wonderful fire pit, plenty of wood, excellent kitchen and all the bits and bobs. Bbq and pizza oven as well! Would love to come back with a big crew as there’s a great spot for a get together. The land is beautiful, we saw tonnes of birds, an echidna, a wallaby from afar and the sugar gliders. No koala’s this time, but hopefully next time! James was a great communicator and made things very easy. Thank you for a relaxing weekend 🌱
