Cottage vacation rentals in Mentone

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.

lovely place to stay, easy to deal with ,hassle free felt right at home

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.

Perfect for a little weekend getaway in the Dandenong mountains.

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.

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.

Lavender Cottage is absolutely beautiful. Lovingly built by Brett, and fitted out with the most wonderful olde worlde decor and furniture. Brett thought of everything, with lovely touches like fresh orange juice and eggs, and a nice selection of teas.

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.

We had a lovely three night stay in this comfortable cottage with our small dog. It was a very comfortable home to stay in with lots of thoughtful touches. Vicki was a great communicator before we arrived and also provided plenty of helpful information in the house. We felt the location was perfect with the beach and general store walkable and many other sights only a short drive away. We really enjoyed our stay.

I have stayed at Thackeray many times. it's the perfect location on the beach.. great bike rides... easy to park... close to everything and Alyce is continually upgrading equipment in her home so everything works! highly recommended. a unique place with beautiful character.

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.

We had a very special stay at Julie’s place in Queenscliff. We were one block away from the main strip of Hesse St but we felt right at home with plenty of room. It was lovely to sit outside on the porch in the sunshine, we had lovely restaurant recommendations and were so grateful we could bring our very elderly long-haired dachshund with us. Queenscliff is a special place but staying here made It feel even more special. Would love to come back for longer!

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

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

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. My little daughter didn't want to leave! She loved the bunk bed. It was a bit tricky to find, and my Maps app wasn't working properly. I was able to call Willeke on the way, and she guided me there. Willeke was very welcoming and said she was available if we needed anything. The cottage was comfortable, clean, private and quiet. Beautiful surrounds, nice and dark and quiet at night-time. There was space for our medium sized sedan and hatch to park side-by-side. Outdoor area with table on the grass was peaceful. Coffee machine with pods was much enjoyed. Thankyou! My daughter was asking when we will go back again!

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!!
