The
most romantic setting with a stunning million dollar view of Port Phillip Bay and Melbourne Citylights on an enchanted mountain with attractions only minutes away in any direction.
The heart of the beautiful Dandenong Ranges can be
your secret getaway or your base for exploring the
many sights, attractions and bush tracks leading
into the Doongalla Forest from the gardens. Be prepared to see deer, kangaroos, and wallabies passing through the property early in the morning and evening.
A Camelot Tower and Penthouse is craftsman-built, offering luxurious accommodation in a unique
and private setting. Attention to detail is obvious throughout and yours to enjoy. Quality fittings and furnishings are apparent within
all of these superb establishments and guests will
enjoy a beautiful breakfast, delivered if required, and a well-stocked fridge and pantry, and relax in their own king-size full-length oval spa bath for two.
Among the many unique features of the property is an 18th century
Geisha hut assembled over the spa bath in the Camelot Tower and a magnificent $36,000 French
Bed - one of the finest hand-sculptured beds
in Australia - making it a unique feature in the Sandstone Cottage. The Penthouse features a wide custom-built spiral staircase
built around a tree trunk effect.
We

Your motor car is also well accommodated with remote
controlled garages or enclosed carports for guests.
Just
minutes away you can reach the Mt. Dandenong Ranges
lookout or the William Ricketts Sanctuary, the
