A Place for the Whole Pack
Adventure in Flowerdale, High Country, VIC, AU
Finally, a place we could relax, unwind and let the dogs roam free. This tranquil mudbrick cottage has an airy feel and is the perfect place to clear your mind, with the bonus of being dog-friendly and fenced all-round. From the cottage's sunny perch on the hill, you're surrounded by trees and the seclusion of rolling hills.
As soon as we arrived, we jumped straight into the hot tub to enjoy its views of the neighbouring paddocks, where horses roam to and fro throughout the day. It's the perfect place to bubble away all thoughts and cares, day or night (and we did both).
We spent the day exploring the local area by car, sampling the various bakery goods in Yea and walking the dogs around the rivers and parklands. By midday though we couldn’t wait to get back and relax at the cottage, with its numerous places to sit and gaze at the country outlooks - just look out for bull ants before you sit! We met the resident sheep with new lambs; the chooks, ducks and goose; and we invited the owner’s dogs over for a playdate. We’ll definitely be back, with the whole pack in tow....
