Additional Information
A reminder that this little cottage has only a Kitchenette & not a kitchen, so you are able to prepare or heat basic food but are unable to cook in here.
This accommodation is also the closest to other buildings on the property & there is a pathway past one end of the house, we may walk past but we always give complete privacy as you'll read in our reviews. If you prefer a totally private space I recommend booking one of our other accommodations, The Loft or The Barn.
As we are on septic there is a bin provided for anything other than toilet paper. We provide a retreat surrounded by nature to switch off and recharge but it's recommended to bring a laptop if you'd like to watch movies as there is no TV in the Cottage but we do provide free WIFI.

Every now and then you stay somewhere which is true to the images you see, for me this was my experience at Duck’n Hill Cottage! Truly delightful! The cottage had so much charm and was well serviced. ...Having quality wines available to purchase saved me a trip into civilisation, which I very much appreciated.
Boots the cat takes some time to warm up too which makes me want to visit again, I want to win her friendship! The cows and a very fresh calf made up for boots. Apples seem to be a favourite for the girls in the paddock.
Overall, great experience!

Duck'n Hill Farm was established in December 2020. Extensive restorative renovations on the accommodations, landscaping and plumbing, electrical & solar were undertaken and the Duck'n Hill Barn was launched in November 2021 with the Cottage & Loft launching by October 2022.
It's a stunning property surrounded by nature, wildlife and views of the Yarra Valley through to Melbourne CBD.
We hope you love it as much as we do!
