Activities

See & Do
You're just 15 minutes from the Yarra Valley wineries here, so make time for some tastings or set off on one of the Dandenong Ranges walking trails.The big sights of Melbourne are less than an hour away, but we'd be inclined to sprawl on that exotic daybed and be as indolent as possible.

Spa
Submit to some indulgent Sodashi spa therapy here: a Red Flower Hinoki soak and ritual Japanese massage, a Zen Vitality treatment starting with a Jojoba body polish, or a muscle-tone and facial.

Diary Dates
February
Join foodies and wine buffs at the Yarra Valley's week-long Grape Grazing Festival.
