Mereweather Estate Cottage, Mount Sturgeon views
Mount Sturgeon fills the windows from the moment you enter. The cottage sits on the brow of a hill at the southern end of the Grampians, with nothing between you and the mountain. It's a view you can sit with for hours. The light moves slowly across the rock, clouds drift over the peaks, and without noticing, you've slowed down too. Settle on the deck and let the mountain relax you. Dunkeld's cafes and the Royal Mail Hotel are a 10-minute walk away.
