Mentone: soggiorni in cottage

Above and beyond. Great place, beautiful surroundings (some spectacular garden surprises nearby) and welcoming extra’s- thanks for the fresh bread and groceries!!! The family did not want to leave. Till next time…

Absolutely lovely cottage, even better than the photos. Host also provided amenities and fresh bread which was such a treat, really cute get away for a short stay. Only thing to note is that the main road is close so you will hear cars driving past all night and windows face the public/ other guests.

It was a wonderful place to spend the night with family. More than ample space to host a lovely family dinner and board games afterwards. The fireplace made it all the more cosy.

Our stay at this treetop house was absolutely wonderful! The property was impeccably maintained with all the amenities we could need. The spa was a definite highlight - clean with perfectly hot water that was incredibly soothing after exploring the area. Alan was very helpful and responsive throughout our stay, which we greatly appreciated. The self check-in process was smooth and hassle-free, making our arrival a breeze. The location couldn't have been better, with shops and charming cafes within easy walking distance, yet still very private and peaceful. We loved being able to stroll into town whenever we wanted. Overall, this was a fantastic spot. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with all the comforts of home!

Perfect for a little weekend getaway in the Dandenong mountains.

Thank you Penny. What a lovely cottage. It was great for our family who attended a wedding at Mount Dandenong. It was private, functional and cosey. Well furbished and had everything we needed. Loved the private back yard. We will come back one day.

Mindy’s place was beautifully presented in a quiet location. Bathrooms were spotless and rest of the house was just as clean. The views were stunning and incredibly peaceful. Would absolutely recommend. Thanks again.

The Observatory Cottages at the top of Mt Dandenong has been the place to stay in the ranges for years, and with good reason! We last visited Ironbark cottage 20 years ago and we loved it this time as we did two decades ago. It’s extremely cosy and private and you can easily spend a whole weekend at the cottage without leaving! The spa and gas log fire place are highlights, adding to the warm and cozy vibe. Penny leaves great provisions for a cooked breakfast for two mornings and there’s a kitchen if you feel like staying in. She has great communication and is very responsive if you need her for anything. A beautiful choice for a weekend of R&R. Highly recommended.

It was our second stay at the cottage and we thoroughly loved the experience. The cottage is everything the description says - peaceful, serene, tranquil, pristine and so tastefully decorated. Kate, the hostess, exceeded our expectations again! Kate has thought through every single detail and anything a guest may need during their stay has been provided for. Our family spent 5 nights over the Easter break at the cottage. We were able to truly slow down, recharge and rejuvenate. Daily walks by the sea side, a well stocked super market and cafes around the corner, a beautiful and fully fenced backyard with a covered area for a BBQ were some of the highlights. Big thanks from our family to Kate.

Great place to stay. Secure - a little haven in the middle of pubs and restaurants and Albert Park. Tram to the city is really convenient and going the other way gets you to the beach. What more could you want?

Everything we needed, comfortable bed and the couch was not low and hard to get out of. Delightful location on the balcony with Bellbirds and Fantails. Plenty of secure exploring area for our dog.

Enjoyed our stay in this property. This is the perfect location if you like coffee and if you have a dog. There is a park across the road for the dog to play in. Yarraville is a very dog friendly area. The house was very comfortable. We would definitely stay again.

We had a fantastic stay at Jess's place. It's a gorgeous house in a stunning location and perfect for a weekend away with a group of people. Jess was fabulous at communicating and I would definitely stay again. (The bed in the main bedroom was insanely comfy!)

Host was incredibly responsive and very helpful. Place was well put together and had everything you could need. Beds were comfortable and spacious.

really responsive host and lots of room in the cottage with some really cool accessories in period

Jenny was very responsive and helpful. Getting access was easy and the house and garden was exactly as we expected. Everything was very clean and well equipped. Really had a great time and we hope to book again.

Our second time staying at the Fig Leaf Cottage and absolutely love it. Great location, close to shops and excellent wineries, but still in a beautiful quiet lane with lovely scenery. Very generous amount of snacks and food, as well as a lovely bottle of their wine! We will be back! Thank you Margaret and Carl

This phenomenal cottage was one of if not THE best cottage stay I’ve ever had in my many years on Airbnb. Staying here felt like such a wonderful dream with all of the small details and private outdoor space to lounge around in. If you’re looking for the perfect getaway stay look no further, this is the one! Pete was also just the best host ever and made us feel right at home. Again just cannot recommend this place enough, 11/10 stay!

Awesome stay just outside of central Melbourne. The ‘East Wing’ was just as described and suited all of our needs. Lovely and clean and all of the amenities you would need for a stay, we felt right at home. Catherine was a fantastic host who helped us with all of our questions and let us say hello to her very friendly greyhound. 10 minute walk to Spotswood station and 15/20 minute train ride gets you into central. Catherine kindly left out some Myki cards to help out with the transport. Thanks so much! Will recommend to anyone wanting to explore Melbourne

We absolutely loved this house! Such a gem. It was spotless, comfy beds, everything we needed, outstanding bath, great hosts. Felt right at home. I highly recommend it.

Easy to find and great location for what we needed. Very private and in a great neighbourhood. Very safe. would definitely recommend

Sulochi’s place was super beautiful and cosy, surrounded by a beautiful garden and lovely patch of views of the hills, beds were firm and comfortable and the sheets were amazing! Loved the little room in the back with tarot cards and beautiful flowers. Such a cosy wonderful stay, super grateful to have been able to experience! Thanks Sulochi :)

Charlotte’s Country Cottage is fantastic. It is situated in vibrant Brunswick, between Lygon Street and Sydney Road. Yet, it is a super private and in a quiet location, accessed down a locked private pathway, servicing only 2 properties. I felt super safe, given I was at Charlottes Country Cottage by myself, out all day and returning alone at night. The Cottage was immaculate, ultra clean, exactly as represented by the photos. When next back in Melbourne, I definitely know where I’m staying.

Absolutely loved our stay in Balaclava! The place was so welcoming and well situated. Loved how close it was to the supermarket and train station, made getting around a breeze. The house is so lovely, and all the amenities were so thoughtful. Would love to stay again!!
