“Lovely comfortable house in a beautiful ferny garden.”
We had a very comfortable stay in this lovely house. Irene and Ben were great hosts and had even turned on the air-conditioning for us so the house was cool when we arrived on a very hot day. Highly recommend.

Location was very private. Beautiful surrounds with a cute little creek running alongside the house. House is very well presented and very clean. Kitchen was equipped with everything required for preparing meals. Breakfast provisions handy too. Outdoors space was lovely for meals and relaxing. Would love to stay again.

“Easy to see why the ratings are so high! Highly recommend Paddy’s retreat.”
Very family friendly; so many little additions like toys & kids plates/cups really did make a difference. The house was spotless, in a great location & so peaceful amongst the surrounding trees.

“Beautiful location and house”
Absolutely loved this place! Wish I could live here. Stunningly presented inside and out. Clean and simple -- everything just worked. Kids loved it as well. Nice and quiet area: you will get a good nights sleep. And still close to anywhere you may want to explore in the Dandenong ranges.
